Jaguar Land Rover have launched the 2018 Range Rover SUV in India. The Range Rover Sport has been priced at INR 99.48 lakh ex-showroom while the Range Rover Vogue asks for INR 1.74 crore (ex-showroom). Bookings for both these SUVs have already opened, and the new Range Rovers will be on display across all showrooms soon.

This is a mid-life facelift for both the models, and not a completely new model change. Both SUVs now come with cosmetic changes on the exterior as well as on the inside, but most of the mechanicals remain unchanged. Changes on the outside include new LED headlamp & tail lamps, new front grille, revised bumper designs, tapered rake for the rear glass and new alloy wheels. Changes on the inside include Touch Pro Duo infotainment system, hot stone massage seats with heating, gesture control for sunblinds, air cabin ionisation, and more.

Petrol engine options for the new Range Rover SUVs include a 3.0L, V6 supercharged motor producing 335 HP & 450 Nm while the SVR variant gets a 5.0L, V8 supercharged block producing 518 HP & 625 Nm. Diesel engine options include a 3.0L, V6 producing 255 HP of power & 600 Nm of torque along with a 4.4L, V8 which produces 335 Hp of power and 740 Nm of torque. Engines come matched to an 8-speed automatic gearbox. The new 2018 Range Rover models also get adaptive cruise control with queue assist.
