Range Rover is fifty years strong now and since this is no ordinary company, the automaker has decided to celebrate its golden jubilee with style with a new limited-edition SUV. It’s called Range Rover Fifty. CarSwitch.com, an online marketplace to sell any car in Dubai, did some research to share the details with you.
Engine And Performance
The new model is based on the Luxury 4×4 Autobiography and numerous powertrain options will be available and the vehicle will come in petrol, diesel, and a plug-in hybrid P400e model.
In North America, the engine choice will be limited to the supercharged 5.0-liter V-8 that produces 518 horsepower and 461 lb-ft of torque.
Only 1,970 units will be produced globally to commemorate the fact that the original SUV came out in 1970. The Range Rover Fifty gets numerous exterior bespoke accents in Auric Atlass and two unique 22-inch wheels.

As Range Rover celebrates its half-century, here is a look back at its achievements
Range Rover was the first SUV to come with a permanent 4WD setup when it was first launched. Later in 1989, it became the world’s first 4×4 to feature ABS anti-lock brakes. Then in 1992, it became the first 4×4 in the world to be equipped with automatic electronic air suspension and electronic traction control (ETC) which gave it a refined driving feel both on and off-road. In 2012, the Range Rover became the first SUV to boast an all-aluminum construction, which made it more efficient, stronger, and lighter.
It was also the first vehicle ever to be showcased at the Louvre Museum in Paris and has won the Paris-Dakar rally twice. It is now in its fourth generation and more than a million models have been sold. This makes the limited edition model all kinds of special and it will surely be a prized possession.
