Range Rover has added another highly exclusive model to their line-up with the announcement of the SV Polar Night.
At R6,521,929, it is the most expensive Range Rover to date, with only five examples built exclusively for and sold in South Africa, and order books are open now.
The SV Polar Night moniker takes its inspiration from the twilight stars in the far north of the country.
The theme is reflected with a spectral light blue gloss paint job with a contrasting gloss black roof and gloss black side mirrors.
There are several Graphite Atlas and Anthracite finishes on the exterior with the Range Rover script in black chrome with 23-inch forged alloy wheels in satin dark grey and black, with body-coloured inserts and black callipers rounding off the theme.
The interior has perforated Liberty Blue and Ebony leather seats with a liberal sprinkling of Ebony Black leather.

Inside, it features perforated Liberty Blue and ebony leather seats creating a two-tone look, while there’s a liberal sprinkling of ebony black leather on interior surfaces, as well as on the carpets and mat outers, with Liberty Blue stitching.
Black anodised metal and chrome finishes continue the twilight theme, as do black ceramic controls.
The steering wheel, covered in Liberty Blue leather, matches the lower instrument panel, and the package is completed with SV Bespoke embroidered scatter cushions and treadplates.
Powering the SV Polar Night is a 4.4-litre twin turbo V8 mild hybrid engine with 452kW and 750Nm of torque coupled to an eight-speed automatic transmission driving all four wheels with a top speed of 290km/h and a claimed 0-100km/h time of 4.5 seconds.
Available exclusively on flagship Range Rover SV models, the Range Rover SV Polar Night comes with Rear Body-And-Soul-Seat and Sensory Floor technology (BASS).
It incorporates haptic feedback through the floor mats and seats, creating an expansive and immersive listening experience, allowing occupants to physically feel the music.
