The Range Rover Sport SV Edition Two is the fastest Range Rover SUV of all time. Under its hood lies a BMW-sourced 4.4-litre twin-turbo petrol V8, which is mated to an 8-speed torque converter automatic gearbox that sends drive to all four wheels. In the RR Sport SV's top-spec Edition Two trim, this massive block is tuned to generate 635hp and 750Nm (800Nm with dynamic launch mode). The 0-100kph sprint is done in a brisk 3.8 seconds, topping out at 290kph. And now in its third generation, the RR Sport has shifted to Jaguar Land Rover's modular MLA-Flex architecture. It also looks a bit sleeker and meaner than its predecessor, and packs features like a 13.1-inch touchscreen, Meridian signature sound, illuminated metal treadplates, and a full ADAS suite. The RR Sport SV Edition Two is priced at Rs 2.95 crore, ex-showroom, India.

The Rolls-Royce Spectre Black Badge has been launched in India at a starting price of Rs 9.5 crore (ex-showroom). On the outside, the Spectre Black Badge gets more menacing styling flourishes, like a blacked-out Spirit of Ecstasy bonnet ornament, front grille, and door handles, as well as new 23-inch forged wheels, unique badging, and a new Vapour Violet paint finish. Inside, the Spectre Black Badge most notably features an 'Illuminated Fascia,' where the dashboard has over 5,500 'stars' embedded in it. As for its powertrain, the Spectre Black Badge carries over the same 102kWh battery pack, dual-motor setup of the standard model, but uprates the output to 659hp and up to 1,075Nm, making it Rolls-Royce's most powerful car to date. Thanks to the increased output, the Spectre Black Badge can dispatch the 0-100kph run in a claimed 4.1 seconds.
