Locally assembled Range Rover Sport Autobiography launched in India at Rs 1.60 crore with a luxury cabin and advanced tech.

Jaguar Land Rover India has finally brought the Range Rover Sport Autobiography to our market, and this update carries real weight in the luxury SUV space. Priced from Rs 1.60 crore (ex-showroom), it is now locally assembled, which should make it more accessible in this segment. More importantly, this is the first time the Range Rover Sport gets the Autobiography badge in India, pushing it closer to flagship territory.

Rajan Amba, Managing Director, Jaguar Land Rover India, said: 'Range Rover Sport Autobiography represents the perfect expression of performance luxury for our Indian clients. With its advanced dynamic technologies, distinctive Autobiography craftsmanship and exclusive new colour options, it delivers an emotionally engaging drive while remaining true to Range Rover’s core values of refinement and capability. We are delighted to open bookings for this exceptional vehicle, which further strengthens our portfolio in India.'
On the outside, the design stays clean and familiar, which works well for a Range Rover. You get four colour options: Borasco Grey, Ostuni Pearl White, Santorini Black and Carpathian Grey. Details like Autobiography badging, red brake callipers, and 22-inch Satin Black wheels with a Gloss Black finish add just enough distinction without going over the top.
Step inside, and this is where the Autobiography badge starts to justify itself. The cabin gets the Full Extended Leather pack, so you see leather across most surfaces, including the seatbacks. The front seats are 22-way adjustable with heating and ventilation, and the overall layout focuses on comfort, especially for long highway runs.
Even the rear seats are powered, heated, ventilated, and recline, which makes this SUV just as appealing from the back seat. Rear passengers also get 11.4-inch screens that are practical for longer journeys. There is also a gesture-controlled powered tailgate, which adds convenience in everyday use, especially in tight parking situations.
Tech and comfort are sorted as well. There is a 13.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a Meridian Signature sound system, and four-zone climate control. You also get all-wheel steering and adaptive air suspension as standard, which should help balance ride comfort and handling across city roads and highways.
Let’s start with what sits under the hood. You get a 3.0-litre engine in two flavours, petrol and diesel. The D350 diesel puts out 346bhp and 700Nm, while the P400 petrol makes 494bhp and 550Nm. Both look strong on paper, with 0 to 100kph coming up in 5.8 seconds for the diesel and 5.5 seconds for the petrol.
Both engines are paired with an eight-speed automatic gearbox and all-wheel drive, which is standard for this segment. You also get mild-hybrid tech, which improves efficiency and response in daily driving. For buyers chasing outright performance, the 4.4-litre V8 continues as a CBU import, delivering 530bhp and 750Nm, making it the quickest and most powerful version available.
In typical Range Rover fashion, it is not only about straight-line performance. The Terrain Response system and the all-wheel-drive setup mean it can still deal with rough roads when needed. With local assembly now part of the package, the Range Rover Sport Autobiography positions itself as a more practical yet still premium option for buyers in India.
