2024 Range Rover SV Quick Review
The 2024 Range Rover SV ($268,065 starting in Canada, $209,000 starting in the US) is a 607 horsepower luxury SUV that has seen a small power bump for this model year through mild hybridization. It is still powered by a 4.4 L twin-turbo V8 in SV trim, and comes with luxury goodies like massaging seats and semi-aniline leather trimmings. But does the Range Rover SV live up to its expectations based on its price tag? And in this price range, how does it compete with its rather serious competition? Thomas and James are excited to find out! We hope you enjoy the episode. SUBSCRIBE!

Every time a manufacturer removes a physical button, an angel loses their wings.
okay bud
Nice I like it I remember the movie
6:51 😭
THIS!
Just one wing 🪽 😂
I’m a simple man. I see a ThrottleHouse video, more than likely a car I wouldn’t buy, can’t afford or don’t like and I click it.
Same. Well, I'm less than not interested (negative interested? repulsed? Yes, repulsed) and still clicked :p
@@anaveragehuman2937 Repulsed, really? The vehicle is actually pretty nice. The markup for the do-dads, matte paint, ect. is pretty repulsive though, I get that. Thomas' comment about making other RR drivers jealous at the hoity-toity coffee shop is the SV's raison d'etre.
@@cbotten106 Nice? I suppose. That raison d'etre, however, is precisely the source of my revulsion. That spirit that inhabits the people who would desire such an object, the depreciation, the unreliability... guh I just threw up in my mouth a bit
Exactly my thinking. Ooh throttle house…do I care about a Range Rover?…ahhh fuck it Thomas and James will make it interesting.
This is Extra Throttle House. Completely different guys.
I love the Extra TH endings. Haha just so good.
Just for that comment, I had to stay to the end, on an otherwise meh review.
It used to be the openings that were must watch but, now the endings are so good, too!
@@dougt5357 It's the opening on the main channel and the ending on the extra channel. 🤣🤣
But poor James. I wish I could relate, but I can’t afford one so my bum is safe :(
lol the “touch my bum” part at the end got me in stitches 😂
I'm so thankful that Land Rover found a method to make BMW XM owners feel slightly less foolish...
By what? This is miles better than a rubbish and hideous XM
Truth
Aha. I don't think this is anywhere close.
The question is can you even afford a BMW XM ? 😂
@@v12-s65until it breaks.
The depreciation on this is going to be like...my entire salary.
It sells over msrp currently you bloody failed expert 😂
@@v12-s65 so you don't know what depreciation means, got it.
@@amanasd26 every car depreciates dummy what's so surprising? New ones keep coming out. btw it's been released 2 years ago
@@v12-s65 Oh that's right. No car that's been sold new with a dealer markup has ever depreciated drastically! Now if you'll excuse me, I found a sweet deal on a Maserati that's only 40k!
3 years later,30k lol
As someone who lives a few miles from the LR factory, the clientele for these cars don't care about insurance or purchase price because their cocaine empire is going well enough for those things to not be an issue.
Step 1: Exploit others misery, Step 2: Profit, Step 3: Buy Range Rover
💉
And? You’re whining for, given you’re a man, men aren’t suppose to whine and moan and complain and gossip ( not sure if daddy ever taught you or you need a reminder to not waste peoples time with pointless fluff )
I mean....what?
How would you know? Customers don't buy from the factory.
That last line had me rolling!
I don't even care about this car. I just like seeing you guys riff on a car. You're the best, most entertaining duo in the biz. Thanks for the fun extra content!
Bringing back A/C controls makes interior look much better
LOLOL "and touch my bum" 😭
I really like this color actually
It's hideous. Looks like someone took Rust-Oleum paint to it.
@@acerimmer8338others opinion exists
A car that can't even get insurance by it's own manufacturer that set it up for that exact car is crazy 💀
its*
It’s being fixed presently. The new generation Rangie & Rangie Sport have only been stolen via taking it from the driver or stealing the keys via breaking and entering the home. JLR has a liaising unit with UK insurance companies to show the ‘unhackability’ of the new generation cars and the free security updates to older cars (that not enough people are taking up yet.)
@@rikkiseddo Highly doubt its "unhackable". Maybe these new ones are more secure but the demand is high for stolen RRs. Range Rovers are one of the most stolen vehicles in Ontario, Canada which is why James mentions that multiple times. Thieves can still use signal relay attacks, physically steal the key, or use a canbus injection attack.
@@BCJDM Less hackable. Less vulnerable. A brand new $250,000 lump o' easy driving prestigious iron is always going to be a target. Apparently, the African black market is a really hot for "lightly used" late model Rovers.
@@yammmit This is the internet not an exam mate ik English
Did it break down while filming?
Lol you know that you're not off on that question. I wonder if a thief ever got stuck because the car broke down during theft.
@@MaverickPhantom I rather have 3 of these than 1 dog crap camaro lol
@v12-s65 ummm you mean a Camaro SS? They're pretty good as long as they're 2016 or newer and in the SS or ZL1 trim, but I don't stand with GM due to the recently uncovered BS with data sale to brokers... so sold it. It was a fun car. But now I roll in Benzes.
I’m surprised this company still sells cars well. Their customers have Stockholm syndrome.
@@faheemabbas3965warranty saves them.😂
Nice to see Range Rover making sure the 'vacant soul' market is well served.
❤❤❤
A $13,000 paint job with an SV badge that looks like a sticker that could have cost upwards of 65 cents.
It's ceramic, listen to James. It only looks and feels like plastic, listening to Thomas.
For a matt effect, go for a matt protection film, costs about $3000, not only it would look exactly the same, it also protects the paint. This factory matt paint? You can't even move it through automated carwash and there's no way to fix any scratches.
You apparently didn’t know how much paint facilities cost in manufacturing But make your reasons why you cannot afford this and why it’s “stupid”
@@ssing7113 sounds like somebody here is defensive of their depreciating money shredder or peaked in high school. Not sure which is worse.
I love this new era of being charged way more for stuff that’s way worse.
Tesla exposed the market with their AutoPilot tech. Customer were willingly paying for nothing. At least "way worse" stuff is something.
Thats because dumb people will pay more for stuff just to feel cool. Have you seen the carp that tesla is selling as their pickup truck....
For the rest of my days the SV RR will the be the car that my colleague had to emergency stop on a screaming highway due to an entire suspension component failing at highway speed with his entire family in the car 👏
holy shit
He can get that fixed under warranty. Sounds like your colleague had a white-knuckler there.
woah
woah
woah
The SV in the Range Rover SV stands for Service Visit. That is where it will spend most of its time.
You have one? If not quiet
Waiting for backorder parts cuz they don't make any for their overly expensive high maintenance always broken SUVs .
@@ssing7113I assure you this car will be dead silent at a service center
I guessing that the "O" in SVO stand for OEM then?
"And touch my bum" 😂😂😂😂
I have to say, as a person who simply doesn't like SUVs, that this is perfectly gorgeous. I love the simple, smooth surfaces that don't look bulky. I love how it avoids the hack n' slash in-vogue styling, the whole thing being perfectly tailored. The smooth curve of surface around the nose is particularly wonderful. It doesn't look flashy, yet it looks modern. It is a masterful example of substance over trendy style. As the Throttle House guys went on (entertainingly so), I just couldn't stop thinking of how this looks truly like a luxury vehicle in the way that no creased-and-folded Lexus can. I hate SUVs, yet this is a gorgeous, perfect luxury SUV to look at, and I love it for that. Now, Land Rover, please re-instate the proper physical controls. Screens impress zoomers but suck. Oh, and please rise above the rock bottom of the build quality rankings. My Kia and I now sadly step off the soap box and return to real life....
People want physical buttons ehy do manufacturers ignore this
Manufacturing costs mostly.
They've made a corporate decision that they don't want people pushing their buttons any more.
Who said. You? The gatekeeper of what people want in cars 😂 Ok…….
Yes, this is cheaper for them and they know people will still buy the vehicle. It makes the vehicle look cheap.
Thomas: Is it filled with a rare noble gas? Me: Yeah, mine
I said the same thing bro LOL
I work for land rover experience my customers can't get enough of the all wheel steering for most it's the most transformative aspect of the vehicle
I think Thomas said it correctly. The SV model is for the folks who want to flash (show off). There are no real gains on having the SV model. In reality, folks who have these actually lease them.
13000 Dollar paint job my ass. Well, being scammed always involves 2 parties. If somebody is stupid enough to buy, I have to say: Congratulations, Landrover, you did everything right!
Just because you don’t have the money doesn’t mean others don’t Instead of whining maybe get off the net and make more money
@@ssing7113You gotta be careful with that much copium man
Great wrap up, as usual
Somebody at Land Rover saw the Moonswatch and said, “hey I have an idea…”
Another great video guys, love that it still uses proper V8 not like AMGs using 6 or 4 clynder hybrids, and the paint it is just crazy ;)
LandRover never fails to disappoint
definitely not in looks
@@bsjddjk it looks like an uptight lazy wife car
Maybe, but out of all the uptight lazy wife cars, this looks the best by a loooong shot haha. Compare to an x7m60, a porsche cayenne turbo, mercedes gls, no need to even mention the hideous bentayga... only the rsq8 looks decent in comparison but that not really the same type of vehicle and instantly makes you look like a knob who took a second mortgage on his house just to drive a big car haha
Until it starts falling apart a few years from now
@@Grunt_007 Id say my 50k Telluride looks nicer and has better interior...
I'm so happy that throttle house finally has gotten to the stage where they can speak their mind about their opinions on vehicles. I want to say thank you to the community, the KZhead community, and everybody at thrall house for their hard work so now we can have real opinions of honest reviewers. And they are all so fair
I wish they would implement pedals into the screen also. That way I can accelerate and brake using my fingers.
Don't give Elon any ideas...
The cruise control haptics on the wheel will have to suffice.
I hope that mirror bit was an homage to the californians SNL sketch. @0:52
Love the new POV-like camera angle guys!
Hahahahahaha, that ending, i spit my water out and started choking!!!!!!!
To be fair it looks better, rides softer and is more quiet than the Bentley... you could argue that's also true for a base model for half the price though like you said.
I'm sorry: it comes in "Serenity" and "Intrepid"? I have to chose between Firefly and Star Trek themes?
Nice video Thomas and James
That was a dramatic ending for sure
Nice Santa Fe Calligraphy
Great banter boys.
I LOVE WHEN YOU GUYS POST
I love every video I don't even watch for the car I watch to be entertained. I love it.
The ending. 😂 Every time the ending. 🤣🤣🤣
The end, as always, doesnt disappoint
I wasn't ready for the end.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That ending! 😂
😂😂😂 that is THE best outro I have ever seen
The ending 😂😂lol 😂😅
Was the defender 110 in the background any good?
Number plate covering the right intercooler
Nice paint job ❤❤❤❤SV
200k for range...*Takes deep breath* BAHAHAHAHAHAVA. They have gone completely loony.
I loved this. You make so much sense on the cost confusion. Hope Land Rover sees this
Best outro yet
I’m obsessed with the outro or lack thereof on this channel 😂
Repeat this conversation about price, complexity, and what we want for all new cars, and I am there. New cars suck across all categories. Well done.
Stunning car!!!
Best ending yet! 😂
Can you get insurance for the range rover in scotland , wales or Northern ireland ?
Range Rover deleting physical buttons reminds me of a holes 🕳 from Apple 😂😂😂
Love the Canadian condescending reviews very much, with a hint of sarcasm.
“Is it filled with a rare noble gas?” 😂
Strong finish.
What a beautiful car
So, if you can't get insurance for it... How do you drive it / get it?? I don't get this.
Unobtainium?
Practicality of 7 seater LWB would be intersting to review
Hey guys, great video as usual! But how am I supposed to eat my meal in less than 10 minutes??
Watch the video at half speed.
It’ll be in the shop next week 😂
Waiting for a Acura ZDX review from yall because I tried watching the straight pipes that came out first and I just can’t deal with them anymore 😂
You just know that one's going under the bus. They might drive around with a mannequin in the back for a hearse joke.
I have those same fears @9:09 😳
Nice
It's ceramic meant to look like plastic. They did this to make the RR less desirable to thieves. They'll look in the window and and say "Oh! This has a plastic shifter. Who wants that?! Definitely not stealing this one!" Think of it as anti-theft 😂
Wouldnt play around in the 6 with that range. Stay safe Thomas❤.
The best feature on this range is the cocaine mirror 😂
Liking the Ineos even more.
I was going home yesterday, and one of these bronze RR was being towed out of the hood.
Saw one in it's natural habitat...nice.
Effortlessly stylish and luxurious.
Whoa! A Canadian _roundaboot._ And was that a Bel Air? @ 6:34
when new range rover 1st came we all hated ita rear look but we all know it have grown on us & for me it looks damn good
There is an issue with the ride quality?
SVO not SV, its Special Vehicle Operations... something like Skunk Works from LR.
You're right but the actual models are called SV, for whatever reason.
"The mirror for not cocaine" 😆😆😆
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA............the ending caught me by surprise........LOL
Can’t wait to buy one in 5 years for $30k
“Are the seats made of gold? Platinum?” I completed the series with rhodium in my head as well!
That screen looks like an afterthought.
Serenity now!🙆♂️
Ummm.... that ending was random lol. That's not the fear I have if someone broke into my house 😅
It thought this was a video about the Range rover SV
I've watched you guys I think since the beginning and I'm glad you guys have done so well for yourselves. I think by not being the cookie cutter type of reviewers, but by just being yourselves has made the majority of us connect with you. I just am concerned that almost every vehicle you review(the vast majority) is priced for people who love to give up the majority of their paychecks just to drive. The prices have gotten so out of control that it's no longer even funny. As a 30+ year car guy, it's easy to review and talk about something with $100k+ MSRP. Grab a base vehicle, manual trans and no options and review that. Are cars tech devices or driving machines? The manufactures want you to think of them as tech, so they can keep adding options for people who like to give away their wealth. I personally wanting a driving machine void of anything that isn't mechanical. Tech has ruined the automobile. Js...
"It's plastic though" 😂
They should have kept the buttons
Support
0:51 love the weird pan in shot of them being goofy in the mirrors
Will buy in 2.5 years
Best Looking SUV on the Planet
Jameses fears are so relateable
Oh I get it now 9:14 it’s for people who DO want that. Or who want the thrill of imagining it might happen.
