Guests at the intimate event were the first in the world to preview the new pinnacle of the brand portfolio.
The private invitation preview event was graciously hosted by loyal Range Rover owners at their one‑of‑a‑kind multi‑acre Beverly Hills estate. The property featured four separate residences within the main gate, private polo fields, horse stables, a man‑made lake and swimming pools. The well‑heeled list of guests, including Skyfall actress Berenice Marlohe and actor Goran Visnjic, enjoyed a custom culinary experience with renowned L.A. Chef Josef Centeno of Bäco Mercat.
"Our owners take a great deal of interest anytime we are introducing a new model or special edition," said Kim McCullough, Brand Vice President, Land Rover North America. "We are so pleased that we were able to share this private moment in advance of the public reveal, at one of our owner's spectacular homes and amongst friends. The evening matched in every way the unique bespoke qualities of the Range Rover LWB Autobiography Black edition."
The new Range Rover LWB Autobiography Black edition, which has a starting MSRP of 185,000*, meets a strong global demand for enhanced luxury, rear seat ambiance and exclusivity at the pinnacle of the Range Rover line‑up. Land Rover is dedicated to providing its loyal customers with the most luxurious experiences and this evening's occasion was no exception.
With nearly eight inches more rear seat legroom than standard‑wheelbase models and an increased seatback recline of 17 degrees, the Range Rover LWB Autobiography Black edition creates an atmosphere of indulgence for the vehicle's drivers and passengers.
Last night's event leads into the car's debut at the L.A. Auto Show, where it will be unveiled publicly on Wednesday, November 20. For more information on the Range Rover LWB Autobiography Black edition, click here.
