The Range Rover Sport SVR goes off-road to pursue James Bond in the latest behind-the-scenes preview of No Time to Die.
Action vehicles and stunt professionals on the new James Bond film pushed the most powerful Land Rover to extremes. A new video gives a taste of the high-speed action as the team explain why Range Rover SVR was perfect for the job.
The chase sequence of the luxury performance SUV was led by Oscar-winning special effects and action vehicles supervisor Chris Corbould, and stunt coordinator Lee Morrison.
The Range Rover SVR packs a powerful 575hp supercharged V8 engine and can accelerate from zero-to-100kph in 4.5 seconds. With a top speed of 283kph, it is the fastest-ever Land Rover.
The SVRs used in No Time To Die feature the same tuned suspension as production models, made by engineers at Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations to deliver more responsive handling and tighter body control.
A pair of Eiger Grey models are fitted with gloss black 22-inch alloy wheels and the optional Carbon Pack of carbon fiber bits and pieces.
Land Rover has a long-standing partnership with EON Productions and James Bond films, which began in 1983 when a Range Rover Convertible appeared in Octopussy. Most recently, in 2015 the Range Rover Sport starred in major action sequences in Spectre.
No Time to Die stars Daniel Craig, who returns for the fifth and final time as Ian Fleming’s James Bond 007. The film will be released in cinemas from September 30, 2021 in the UK.
