  • Vision for Range Rover  SV Bespoke: Presenting the Range Rover SV Candeo

    Vision for Range Rover SV Bespoke: Presenting the Range Rover SV Candeo

    • Range Rover is debuting its newest and most highly crafted SV Bespoke vehicle at Design Miami. Range Rover SV Candeo, which means ‘to shine’ or ‘to glow’ in Latin, is a one‑of‑one vehicle inspired by the sunrises of the Miami coastline
    • Featuring hand‑finished, 18K solid gold Range Rover script badging, expertly 3D printed and crafted by British jewelers from fully recycled gold responsibly sourced from around the world
    • A unique, hand‑applied duo‑tone fade paint finish harmonizes beautifully, evoking the Miami coastal skyline; the first time such a paint finish has ever been executed on a Range Rover vehicle
    • Exquisite one‑of‑a‑kind embroidery design characterizes the theme of light; distinctive rear seat cushions alone feature 90,000 stitches each, alongside embroidered seat backs and, for the first time, an embroidered headlining
    • A year in the making, the Range Rover SV Candeo signals the future of SV Bespoke personalization for Range Rover’s most discerning clients seeking the ultimate luxurious finishes
    • The Range Rover SV Candeo is on display at Design Miami from December 3‑8, 2024

    Drawing inspiration from the cool tones of Miami’s famed coastline, Range Rover has crafted a unique curation that expresses this natural beauty. The Range Rover SV Candeo, defined as ‘to shine’ in Latin, reflects the world‑famous oceanic vistas. Displayed during Design Miami, as part of Range Rover’s official partnership, it is presented in a space dedicated to the Range Rover’s guiding modernist design philosophy, with a cinematic backdrop storying Miami’s landscape and oceanic views. 

    The exterior features a duo‑tone paint finish – applied by hand to create a graceful ombre effect from a bespoke sky‑blue satin hood color fading into a lustrous pearl white along the upper portion of the distinctive Range Rover silhouette. This elegant color combination magically captures the subtle golden reflections shimmering on the clear blue waters of Miami. The exterior is finished with Forged 23‑inch Diamond Turned directional alloy wheels with matching pearl white inserts. 

    Complementing the exterior on the front and rear lies exquisitely‑crafted 18K solid gold Range Rover script badging – weighing in at over 900g; more gold than has ever been applied to a Range Rover before. The gold is recycled from 100% fully audited recycled sources, preserving natural resources. Each letter features an 18K yellow‑gold outer and white‑gold inner and is 3D printed for precision, hallmarked, then hand‑finished by a British Jeweler to ensure it lies perfectly flush – with a polished outer edge and a brushed face.

    The interior of this unique and exclusive vehicle is the perfect combination of harmonious tones; a Liberty Blue Near‑Aniline and Perlino Semi‑Aniline leather finish capturing the essence of the transformation between dawn to noon. This theme is further brought to life with careful and considered embroidery across the cabin, as well as Natural Dark wood veneers and white ceramic finishes on the gear shifter and controls.

    Luxurious left and right seat backs feature a radiating sunrise motif meticulously embroidered– viewed in all its glory from the front looking rearwards, where the rays seemingly stretch to each corner of the interior. For the first time, Range Rover SV Candeo features an embroidered headlining, finished in Perlino with nuances of gold in different lights, continuing the theme of sunrise. Cabin cushions feature a geometric sundial repeat pattern, with 90,000 stitches per cushion for a tactile, intriguing and precise finish that exemplifies workmanship beyond compare.

    The rear cabin of the Range Rover SV Candeo offers unparalleled comfort for two rear‑seat passengers. SV Signature suite seats with Range Rover SV‑specific contours feature 24‑way adjustment with massage functionality, complete with a chiller compartment for drinks, while an elegant electrically deployable Club Table rises theatrically from the fixed full‑length center console on beautifully engineered supports to provide a convenient workspace when required. 

    Completing this unique creation is the Tailgate Event Suite – inspired by the calming glow of morning sunrises across the Miami coast – finished in Liberty Blue Near‑Analine leather with embroidered seat cushions featuring a unique radial sun design.

    The SV Bespoke commissioning service is available on Range Rover SV and Autobiography cars. Clients are invited to begin their Bespoke journey via their preferred Range Rover retailer or by contacting bespoke@jaguarlandrover.com directly. The SV Bespoke service provides exclusive in‑person or virtual commissioning with an extensive range of interior and exterior options and vehicle personalization.
