What Is the 2027 Range Rover SV?

The 2027 Range Rover SV is the flagship expression of the original luxury SUV. Land Rover Canada describes the SV as having “Range Rover Autobiography features, plus” a set of upgrades exclusive to SV. Put simply, you get everything Autobiography offers, and then some.

The 2027 SV comes in two body styles:

  • Standard Wheelbase
  • Long Wheelbase

Both use a 4.4L V8 rated at 606 hp.

What SV Means in the Range Rover Lineup

SV marks the highest rung of the trim ladder. For 2027, the Canadian lineup runs in this order:

  1. SE, the entry point to the full-size Range Rover
  2. Autobiography, which adds features such as Pixel LED headlights and the Meridian Signature Sound System
  3. SV, which builds on Autobiography
  4. SV Black, a darker, more exclusive take on SV

If you’re weighing the first two steps, our guide to Range Rover SE or Autobiography walks through that upgrade path.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Range Rover SV?

SV is the top trim tier of the full-size Range Rover, placed above SE and Autobiography. It takes the Autobiography feature set and adds SV-specific upgrades, including 23-inch forged wheels, SV semi-aniline leather and hot stone massage front seats. It also gains an Electronic Active Differential with Torque Vectoring by Braking. Power comes from a 4.4L V8 rated at 606 hp for 2027, and you can choose a Standard Wheelbase or Long Wheelbase body.

What does SV mean in Range Rover?

SV names the highest trim tier in the Range Rover lineup. Land Rover Canada lists the 2027 trims as SE, Autobiography, SV and SV Black. The SV card begins with “Range Rover Autobiography features, plus.” That means every SV starts with the full Autobiography feature set before adding its own upgrades. Those include SV semi-aniline leather, Serenity or Intrepid themes and illuminated treadplates with SV script. In practical terms, the SV badge signals the most powerful V8 and the richest standard of craftsmanship in the Range Rover range.

Is the Range Rover SV a 7-seater?

No, it isn’t listed in a seven-seat configuration. For 2027, Land Rover Canada offers the SV in Standard Wheelbase and Long Wheelbase forms. The Long Wheelbase Seven Seats body style comes with the SE and Autobiography trims, so if you need three rows, one of those is the right fit. If you’d rather have the SV, the Long Wheelbase version offers Executive Class Comfort Plus rear seats. The Coventry North team can walk you through the seating layout of each configuration.

How fast is the 2027 Range Rover SV?

Quick for a full-size luxury SUV. The SV’s 4.4L V8 produces 606 hp. With Dynamic Launch engaged, it reaches 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds, and its top speed is 261 km/h. For context, the Autobiography’s 4.4L V8 makes 523 hp and runs to 250 km/h. That extra output gives the SV a stronger surge when you press the throttle.

Second, SV Black Ebony near-aniline leather. Third, the SV Gloss Black Exterior Package.

The SV, meanwhile, offers a choice of Serenity or Intrepid themes for a different character.

How much can the 2027 Range Rover SV tow?

Up to 3,500 kg. That figure matches the Range Rover 4.4L V8 and 3.0L six-cylinder mild hybrid models. The SV’s Electronic Air Suspension with Dynamic Response Pro also helps keep the vehicle composed on the road. Before you hitch up, confirm your trailer’s weight and the right hitch setup. The Coventry North team can help with the towing equipment that suits your needs.
