On June 17, 1970, Land Rover created the Range Rover, the
world's first high-end SUV. Yuppies, investment bankers, and the automotive
world would never be the same.
Now, 50 years after the first Range Rover rolled off the
assembly line, Land Rover is celebrating with a limited run of 50 2021 Range
Rover Fifty models, the company announced on Tuesday. A total of 1970 will be
built and offered globally, to commemorate the first year of production, and
they will all be based on the top-end Autobiography trim level.
The Range Rover Fifty models will get unique exterior
accents finished in Auric Atlas (a gold-tinted metal), their own 22-inch wheel
designs, script "Fifty"’ badges on the exterior and interior,
illuminated treadplates, and a “1 of 1970” center console commissioning plaque.

Land Rover will offer the Range Rover Fifty in standard- and
long-wheelbase body styles, and North American customers will get the 5.0-liter
V-8 engine. Buyers will pick from a choice of seven exterior colors: Carpathian
Grey, Rosello Red, Aruba, and Santorini Black are modern colors, while Tuscan
Blue, Bahama Gold, and Davos White are solid heritage colors from the original
palette offered in lesser numbers through Land Rover Special Vehicle
Operations.
2021 Land Rover Range Rover Fifty
The Range Rover Fifty is based on the fourth
generation of the Range Rover, which debuted in 2012. It was the first
Range Rover with an all-aluminum body and architecture, which helped it save
926 pounds compared to the third-generation model. It was also the first to get
a plug-in
hybrid version, the new family of Ingenium engines, and several
driver-assistance technologies.
Previous Range Rovers marked other important firsts in the
industry. The Range Rover was the first SUV with full-time four-wheel drive,
the first with ABS brakes, the first with traction control, and the first with
the aforementioned all-aluminum construction.
Details on additional equipment, specifications, and prices
will be available closer to when the Range Rover Fifty goes on sale later this
year.
