The Range Rover celebrates 50 years of pioneering innovation, peerless refinement and unparalleled all-terrain capability with a choice of desirable new special editions and the introduction of a straight-six Ingenium diesel engine.
The original luxury SUV has defined the market since 1970 and only 1 970 units of the new Range Rover Fifty model will be available, to celebrate the year of its world premiere half a century ago. The limited edition is joined by the Westminster and Westminster Black editions, while the exclusive SVAutobiography Dynamic Black is also new to the line-up.
Land Rover has also confirmed the latest generation of smooth and efficient straight-six Ingenium diesel engines will debut in the Range Rover, incorporating 48V Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle technology (MHEV) for reduced fuel consumption and heightened refinement. The new engine family, developed in-house, is available in 249 PS (183 kW), 300 PS (221 kW) and 350 PS (258 kW) outputs*.
With its clamshell bonnet, distinctive floating roof and trademark front fender vents, the 2020 Range Rover can trace its roots back to the 1970 original. In its golden anniversary year it is the most efficient, connected, luxurious and capable yet.
Enhancements across the Range Rover line-up include the latest connected features, with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto** offered as standard across the range. With Executive Class Seating and up to eight 4G Wi-Fi connections, the Range Rover remains the perfect remote working hub, or entertainment zone during long drives.
The Range Rover features the latest safety technologies, including; Lane Departure Warning, Emergency Braking, and Cruise Control with Speed Limiter available as standard across the model range. Adaptive Cruise Control is also available.
A series of comfort-enhancing functions transform the travelling experience for all occupants. The new Cabin Air Ionisation with PM2.5 from Nanoe, filters harmful particulates in the cabin, improving air quality for both drivers and passengers.
The PM2.5 system in the Range Rover is controlled using a soft button within the infotainment, named ‛Purify’. This initiates the recirculation function, cleaning the air and removing small particulates in the air, less than 2.5 micrometres in size, that are harmful to health.
By night, the Range Rover gives customers control over the cabin environment with three-zone ambient lighting. Occupants can tailor the atmosphere to create a calm, relaxing and stress-free environment by configuring the colour (from a choice of 10) and intensity of lighting via fully controllable tri-colour LEDs.
Land Rover Chief Creative Officer Prof Gerry McGovern said in the world of luxury vehicles, the Range Rover has always stood apart as peerless and enduring.
“It’s unique and pioneering sensibilities together with an unrivalled engineering approach have been the intrinsic values which our customers have admired since the first of the breed was revealed in 1970,” said Land Rover Chief Creative Officer Prof Gerry McGovern.
Range Rover Fifty
To celebrate 50 years of a motoring icon, the limited-run Range Rover Fifty will be restricted to just 1 970 vehicles globally, in recognition of the year the original Range Rover was launched.
Building on the luxuriously appointed Autobiography, the Range Rover Fifty features a number of bespoke exterior accents in Auric Atlas and is available with two 55.88 (22) wheels, one with a unique finish.
The badging features a ‘Fifty’ script created personally by Prof Gerry McGovern OBE, Land Rover’s Chief Creative Officer, which will appear on the exterior of the vehicle and throughout the interior on the unique “1 of 1970” centre console commissioning plaque, headrests, dashboard and illuminated treadplates.
The Range Rover Fifty will be available in standard and long wheelbase body designs with customers able to choose from four carefully curated exterior colours. In extremely limited numbers, Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations is also offering the Range Rover Fifty in one of three Heritage exterior solid paints reproduced from the original Range Rover paint palette; Tuscan Blue, Bahama Gold and Davos White.
Westminster Edition
The new Westminster Edition is based on the Vogue model and is available with a choice of petrol, diesel and plug-in hybrid electric powertrains. Privacy Glass and 53.34 (21) Diamond Turned Alloy Wheels set it apart on the outside and the new model is available in a range of solid, metallic and Premium Metallic finishes.

Ingenium 6 Cylinder Diesel Engine
The latest Ingenium diesel engines are the perfect choice for high-mileage customers and those who regularly tow. Based around Jaguar Land Rover’s modular aluminium engine architecture, the new in-line diesel engines are smoother and more refined than the previous generation of diesel engines and feature advanced 48V mild hybrid technology to meet the most stringent global emissions regulations.
These include the Real Driving Emissions Step 2 (RDE2) standards, which govern nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions, making the Range Rover among the first full-sized luxury and performance SUVs in the world to be available with RDE2-certified diesels. The highly efficient engines deliver improved responses by harvesting and storing energy generated during deceleration and intelligently redeploying it to assist the engine when accelerating.
The new mild-hybrid 3.0 l D300 Ingenium diesel is capable of up to 33.0 mpg (8.6 l/100 km) on the WLTP test cycle, emitting as little as 225 g/km CO2. The more powerful D350 achieves up to 30.8 mpg (9.2 l/100 km) with CO2 emissions of 241 g/km on the WLTP cycle. As a result, the new flagship diesel provides superior performance to the previous V8 with the efficiency and weight of a six-cylinder design.
The new engine range comprises:
Diesel:
- D250 – 249 PS (183 kW), 3.0 l six cylinder diesel MHEV, 600 Nm of torque at 1 250-2 250 rpm*
- D300 – 300 PS (221 kW), 3.0 l six cylinder diesel MHEV, 650 Nm of torque at 1 500-2 500 rpm
- D350 – 350 PS (257 kW), 3.0 l six cylinder diesel MHEV, 700 Nm of torque at 1 500-3 000 rpm
Petrol:
- P400 – 400 PS (294 kW), 3.0 l six-cylinder petrol, with 550 Nm of torque at 2 000-5 000 rpm
- P400e – 404 PS (297 kW), 2.0 l four-cylinder petrol PHEV, 640 Nm of torque at 1 500-4 000 rpm
- P525 – 525 PS (386 kW), 5.0 l V8 Supercharged,625 Nm of torque at 2 500-5 500 rpm
- P565 – 565 PS (415 kW), 5.0 l V8 Supercharged, 700 Nm of torque at 3 500-5 000 rpm
The P400e is the most efficient version of the Range Rover. With a fully electric, zero-emissions range of 40 km (25 miles), the P400e combines an advanced 300 PS (221 kW) four-cylinder Ingenium petrol engine with a 143 PS (105 kW) electric motor. Powered by a 13.1 kWh lithium-ion battery, the P400e delivers CO2 emissions of just 75 g/km and fuel economy of up to 84.8 mpg (3.3 l/100 km) on the WLTP combined cycle.
The standard fit Mode 3 charging cable*** significantly reduces charging times for the P400e, with a full charge taking under three hours, compared to 7.5 hours when using a Mode 2 charging cable.
SV Autobiography Dynamic Black
Since 2014 the expert engineers and craftsmen and women at Special Vehicle Operations have designed and produced some of the fastest, most luxurious and most exclusive Range Rover models in the luxury SUV’s 50-year history. The elevated luxury, performance and capability of the SV family represent the pinnacle of Range Rover development.

The HSE Silver edition builds on the generous specification of HSE with a suite of sophisticated Shadow Atlas exterior trim finishes, Privacy Glass and 53.34 cm (21) Gloss Black and contrast diamond-turned alloy wheels fitted as standard.
Available with seven exterior colour options, including new Lantau Bronze and Hakuba Silver, and two interior choices, the HSE Silver also benefits from a fixed panoramic roof, Privacy Glass, front centre console cooler compartment and Meridian Surround Sound System*.

The new in-line designs meet Real Driving Emissions Step 2 (RDE2) standards and Euro 6d-final real-world driving compliance with 48V Mild-Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV) technology boosting responses and fuel economy. As a result, the new Ingenium unit is one of the world’s leading clean diesel engines.
All the engines available play to the Range Rover Sport’s high-performance character, with the new D350 diesel powering the luxury performance SUV from 0-60mph in just 6.5 s (0-100 km/h 6.9 s). With an impressive torque output of 700 Nm, strong responses remain at the core of the Range Rover Sport experience and, with CO2 emissions of just 237 g/km for the most powerful D350, customers gain traditional V8 diesel performance with six-cylinder efficiency.
Strong performance is backed up by an engaging drive that strikes a fine balance between dynamism and comfort. The Range Rover Sport’s advanced all-wheel drive and air suspension both constantly adapt and respond to road conditions, providing driver feedback and involvement, while retaining the superior refinement that customers expect. Lightweight aluminium construction is a key factor behind the Range Rover Sport’s agile handling and dynamic responses.
