2026 Land Rover Range Rover Price in Australia

Range Rover is the flagship model of JLR’s luxury SUV family and remains one of the most recognisable premium four-wheel drives sold in Australia. The current generation is available in Standard Wheelbase, Long Wheelbase and Long Wheelbase Seven Seat forms, allowing buyers to prioritise manoeuvrability, rear-seat space or family capacity. Australian derivatives include HSE, Autobiography and SV, with additional special versions such as SV Black and SV Ultra adding even more exclusive styling and cabin treatments.

The Australian powertrain line-up is broad. HSE and Autobiography can be ordered with the D350 3.0-litre six-cylinder diesel mild hybrid, the P530 4.4-litre twin-turbo petrol V8 mild hybrid and, on selected configurations, the P460e plug-in hybrid. The plug-in hybrid combines a petrol engine with an electric motor and external charging capability, giving buyers the option of electric driving for shorter trips while retaining long-distance petrol range. Range Rover SV uses the more powerful P615 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 mild hybrid and adds chassis and luxury equipment intended to deliver stronger performance and greater exclusivity.

Every current Range Rover sold in Australia uses all-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic transmission. A twin-speed transfer case with high and low range, Terrain Response 2, electronic air suspension, adaptive damping, hill-descent control and all-wheel steering give the vehicle a level of off-road ability that many luxury SUVs do not attempt to match. The suspension can lower the body for easier entry or raise it for difficult terrain, while the latest driver-assistance systems include adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assistance, emergency braking, surround cameras, parking aids and blind-spot monitoring.

Luxury is the main focus inside. HSE already brings semi-aniline leather, heated and ventilated seating, a head-up display, premium Meridian audio and a powered gesture tailgate. Autobiography adds richer materials, four-zone climate control, a sliding panoramic roof, more advanced seating and the Meridian Signature system. SV versions go further again with Near-Aniline or SV-specific upholstery, hot-stone massage functions, Body and Soul Seat technology and highly individual trim combinations. The long-wheelbase body also enables Executive Class rear-seat configurations aimed at owners who spend substantial time being driven.

Practicality depends on configuration. Five-seat models offer a large luggage area and a versatile split tailgate, while the seven-seat Long Wheelbase is better suited to larger families. Towing preparation, electrically deployable towbar options and the underlying low-range four-wheel-drive system make Range Rover capable of serious recreational towing when correctly configured. A large turning circle and substantial body width, however, mean the model feels much more at home on open roads than in tight inner-city car parks.

For Australian buyers comparing Bentley Bentayga, BMW XM or X7, Mercedes-Maybach GLS and other high-end SUVs, Range Rover’s biggest advantage is the breadth of its ability. It can be a luxury commuter, family tourer, tow vehicle and genuine off-roader in one package. Its disadvantages are equally clear: very high pricing, costly options, large wheels and tyres, high insurance and servicing costs and considerable weight. Even so, few rivals combine prestige, comfort and real off-road hardware as convincingly.
