Land Rover has brought in a slew of special editions for the 2021 model year Range Rover and Range Rover Sport. The Range Rover Fifty has already been showcased, which celebrates 50 years of the model line. The other two are the Westminister Editon and the top-drawer SVAutobiography Black edition.

The Westminister edition is based on the Vogue trim level and comes with a long list of equipment that differentiates it from the standard car. It adds the privacy glass option on the outside, as well as a new set of 21-inch alloy wheels. The SUV can be had with a range of solid and metallic paint options as well. On the inside, this version is done up in black veneer trim and suede headlining. Standard features are soft-close doors, a panoramic sunroof and a 19-speaker Meridian sound system. A Westminister Black edition is also available, which is finished with black exterior accents, and can be had with a choice of three gloss black alloy wheels. These range from a 21-inch nine-spoke design to a split-spoke 22-inch one.

The other new Range Rover is the SVAutobiography Dynamic Black. This has been developed by JLR's Special Vehicles Operations, and sits at the very top of the line-up. The Dynamic Black is finished in Santorini Black Metallic paint and gets Narvik Black Gloss exterior accents. Other exterior highlights are the black brake callipers and the etched treadplates. On the inside, there is ebony upholstery with Pimento stitching.

The SVAutobiography Dynamic Black is powered by the 5.0-litre supercharged V8 good for 565PS and 700 Nm. It also features a sharpened up suspension set up. The Westminister edition gets the 3.0-litre inline-six MHEV petrol which makes 360PS/495 Nm or 400PS/550 Nm. The PHEV P400e pairs a 2.0-litre petrol engine with a 103kW electric motor and 13kW battery pack for a combined 404PS and 640 Nm and 40 km all-electric range. Finally, there is an all-new inline-six 3.0-litre diesel which you can read about in detail here.

Alongside the new Range Rover Editions, the Range Rover Sport has been given a similar line-up of special editions. This will probably be the last full model year for both SUV, Land Rover's fifth-gen Range Rover is expected to come by 2022. In India, the Range Rover Fifty and the Westminister special editions will be available with the 3.0-litre petrol and diesel engines in LWB guise. The 2021 Range Rover in India will be available in three SWB (Vogue, Vogue SE and Autobiography) and four LWB (Vogue, Vogue SE, Autobiography and SV Autobiography) variants with the six-cylinder engine options.
