Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) India has introduced its latest ultra-exclusive offering for the Indian market: the Range Rover SV Masāra Edition. Priced at an ex-showroom tag of Rs 4.99 crore, this bespoke luxury SUV is the second India-specific special edition from JLR, following last year’s successful SV Ranthambore Edition.
What makes the Masāra Edition particularly noteworthy is its extreme exclusivity; only 12 units have been produced globally, and JLR India has confirmed that all of them were sold out even before the official launch. This rapid sell-out underscores the strong demand for unique, high-end luxury vehicles in the Indian market.
Inspired by the Himalayas: Design and Aesthetics
The Range Rover SV Masāra Edition draws its inspiration from a precious natural wonder found in the Himalayas.
A Sapphire-Inspired Finish
JLR states that the SV Masāra edition is directly inspired by the rare blue sapphires discovered in the Himalayan region. The name “Masāra” itself is a Sanskrit word often used to refer to sapphires, further cementing this connection. To embody this inspiration, each of the bespoke Range Rovers is finished in a unique and striking deep satin blue.
This specific hue is designed to reflect the exquisite color of the gemstone. Complementing the opulent blue exterior are carefully chosen trim accents in elegant silver chrome and warm bronze. The vehicle’s commanding presence is completed by large 23-inch diamond-turned alloy wheels, adding to its distinctive and luxurious appeal.
Unrivaled Interior Luxury: The SV Signature Suite
The cabin of the Range Rover SV Masāra Edition is a sanctuary of opulence and bespoke craftsmanship, designed to offer the ultimate in passenger comfort and sophistication.
Four-Seater Configuration with Premium Features
The interior adopts a refined dual-tone theme. It comes standard with the highly sought-after SV Signature Suite package. This transforms the spacious Range Rover into an ultra-luxurious four-seater configuration. Rear passengers benefit from power-adjustable seats, complete with comfortable ottomans for enhanced relaxation.
A full-length central floor console further elevates the rear cabin experience, providing enhanced privacy and functionality. Additional features integrated with the SV Signature Suite include an electrically operated fold-out table, a convenient refrigerated compartment for beverages, and custom SV-branded glassware, all contributing to an unparallelled travel experience.
Exquisite Materials and Custom Details
The dual-tone cabin is meticulously finished in a sophisticated blend of Liberty Blue and Perlino Leather upholstery. This combination creates a visually appealing contrast and a plush tactile experience. Surfaces are adorned with elegant light ash wood veneer, adding a natural and refined texture to the interior. Further customized detailing highlights the vehicle’s exclusive nature.
These include unique SV Bespoke tread plates that greet occupants upon entry, luxurious custom scatter cushions, and edition-specific embroidery on the seats, reinforcing the limited-edition status of each vehicle.
Powertrain: Robust Performance
Underneath its exquisite exterior and luxurious interior, the Range Rover SV Masāra Edition maintains the powerful performance expected from a flagship Range Rover.
Potent V8 Engine
The vehicle is powered by the familiar and highly capable 4.4-liter V8 petrol engine. This robust powertrain delivers impressive performance figures, generating a substantial 606 bhp (brake horsepower) and a peak torque of 750 Nm. This ensures that the Masāra Edition not only looks exceptional but also delivers exhilarating performance, effortlessly combining luxury with dynamic driving capabilities.
The engine is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, sending power to all four wheels, ensuring smooth and responsive acceleration in various driving conditions.
