As with the last special edition full-size Range Rover, the SV Polar Night is powered exclusively by the BMW-made 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 petrol engine.
Having centred its attention in recent months on special editions of the Range Rover Sport, JLR has now revealed a new limited run version of the full-size Range Rover called the SV Polar Night.
The work of JLR’s SV Bespoke division, as per its nomenclature, the Polar Night uses the flagship long wheelbase SV L as a base, but adds a raft of unique fittings to the interior and exterior without receiving any mechanical alterations.
Inside and out
Externally, these include satin dark grey and black 23-inch alloy wheels, anthracite and Graphite Atlas detailing, a gloss black roof and mirror caps, the Range Rover script finished in black chrome, black brake calipers and a unique colour called Spectral Light Blue Gloss.

Inside, the bespoke interior additions comprise Liberty Blue and Ebony leather upholstery, anodised black and chrome finishes, Ebony Black floor mats, SV Bespoke branded scatter cushions on the rear seats, and a black ceramic finish for the various controls.
Illuminated SV Bespoke treadplates and Liberty Blue stitch work complete the interior’s transformation.
In terms of spec, the Polar Night is unchanged from the standard SV L, meaning the retention of the 13.3-inch Pivi Pro infotainment system, quad-zone climate control, ClearSight rear-view mirror, soft-touch closing doors, an auto-folding bootlid cover and the uprated Meridian sound system.
Safety and driver assist comes in the guise of a 360-degree camera system, Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Spot Monitoring, Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist, Automatic Park Assist, Steering Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Alert with Automatic Braking.
Standard V8
Up front, the Polar Night is exclusively powered by the BMW-sourced 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 that sends 452kW/750Nm to all four wheels through the ZF-sourced eight-speed automatic gearbox.
Also carried over from the SV L is the adaptive air suspension, Active Electronic Differential, Torque Vectoring, low range transfer case and adaptive off-road cruise control.
Price
Limited to five units, pricing for the SV Polar Night is R6 521 929, which includes a five-year/100 000 km maintenance plan.
