Extravagance, opulence, indulgence, even borderline hedonism. That's what the Range Rover SV exemplifies. The ultimate variant of the flagship Range Rover comes with every conceivable feature to justify its 22.8 crore starting price. It's the closest thing to a private jet on land. And like most private jets, it's not the cockpit but the rear seats where the true pampering takes place.
The SV Signature Suite trim gets a fixed centre console, which divides the cabin. So, instead of a bench, there's a pair of individual, luxurious seats at the back, with a small refrigerator in between.
With the touch of a button, and in perfect synchronisation, the rear seat reclines, the under-thigh cushion rises, and a footrest glides down from the back of the front seat. It has cooling, heating and massage functions. Everything is largely controlled by the touchscreen in the central armrest.
