Range Rover now available with 635 horsepower
This is the Sport SV Edition
One of the most bizarre cars I've ever driven is the Range Rover Sport SVR. Imagine a full-size luxury SUV with all possible amenities combined with a snorting sports car with an exhaust sound that beats most. Sick car. Now a new sharp generation is presented, but this one is called Sport SV instead. And even though this one probably doesn't have the same magical engine sound, it has even more performance. The power in the SVR I drove was 550 horsepower, here it is instead a whopping 635. And you don't really need that - do you? It's also not entirely impossible that there will be another SVR version, to challenge the Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT, for example.The engine is a BMW V8 of 4.4 liters and the torque is up to 800 Newton meters. That's enough to send the big car from 0-100 km/h in just over 3.6 seconds and to reach a top speed of 290 km/h. To stop the car, for the first time on a Land Rover, you can get ceramic brake discs. Another novelty is the 23-inch carbon fiber wheels, and this is the first time ever on a production car that this is offered from the factory. The wheels and brake discs together save 76 kilos. A whole Bobby, but maybe not so much in the context as the car weighs in at 2485 kilos.A gimmick the car offers is the Body and Soul Seat (BASS). It's technology that analyzes the music you play from the 29 speakers and then sends this on in the form of vibrations in the front seats. If Kikki Danielsson's song "Bra vibrationer" ("Good Vibrations") doesn't work as you had hoped, there are six specially developed songs that can either reduce anxiety or make you more alert.Price and launch date are unclear at the moment.
