Urban Reveals The Most Badass Range Rover Sport SV At Goodwood

This year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed is still ongoing, and we’ve seen some of the hottest reveals there yet. But companies aren’t just done yet, with some setting up some late debuts during the festival’s second day. One of which is the Range Rover Sport Urban XRS (Extreme Road Series) Widetrack. Based on the Range Rover Sport SV, we think it’s the most badass version of the high-performance SUV we’ve seen.

The Range Rover Sport Urban XRS Widetrack is the third model from Urban Automotive (UA), which introduced an open-roof Land Rover Defender and a widebody Rolls-Royce Cullinan earlier this week. The Milton Keynes-based outfitter calls it the ultimate version of the Range Rover Sport SV – a halo model, so to speak, and based on what we see, we are inclined to agree.

Showered With Carbon Fiber

Unlike Land Rover’s stealthy take on the Range Rover Sport SV, UA has given the Range Rover Sport SV a bold visual overhaul with extended, body-colored Widetrack wheel arches and the forged black UF-X alloy wheels wrapped in Yokohama Advan Sport tires. A new carbon fiber hood with exposed weave and a sculpted “power dome” sets an aggressive tone, further echoed by a carbon fiber front bumper that integrates 3D-printed XRS mesh grilles, an exposed carbon upper grille overlay, and a sharp five-piece splitter with aerodynamic canards.

Carbon fiber accents continue down the sides with mirror caps, sill extensions, and badged side trims. At the rear, a carbon fiber bumper, new spoiler, diffuser, and central-exit billet exhaust complete the transformation. Branding is, of course, mandatory with bespoke XRS graphics across the exterior, plus UA logos, hood and trunk lettering, and tablet-style badges.

Definitely Not A Cheap Modification

Inside, UA’s XRS Widetrack maintains the aggressive performance aesthetic with motorsport-inspired upgrades, such as Recaro sports front seats with carbon fiber seatbacks and embroidered with XRS branding. The steering wheel has been replaced with a flat-bottomed design finished in exposed carbon fiber, reinforcing the sense of driver focus. The dashboard also features XRS branding to mark this build’s exclusivity.

The Lanzante 95-59 has been revealed as a three-seater supercar with 850 hp.

UA didn’t touch the Range Rover Sport SV’s mechanicals, and rightfully so. The super SUV is powered by a 4.4-liter V8 mild hybrid gasoline engine from the factory, making up to 626 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. Those numbers are good for a 3.7-second sprint to 60 mph.

As you’d expect from a build with lots of carbon fiber used, the Range Rover Sport XRS Widetrack isn’t cheap, with the tuning firm pricing it at £199,995, or around $270,000 at the current exchange rates. That’s nearly $100,000 more than the starting price of the base vehicle. Yikes.
