With the introduction of Range Rover Vogue Autobiography the world's most complete Luxury SUV is now even better. Autobiography offers even higher levels of luxury and refinement, combined with the ability to personalise a Range Rover Vogue to suit one's own sense of taste and style.

The first impact when opening the door on an Autobiography will be the smell of leather. Land Rover has never offered a Range Rover Vogue with this amount, or quality, of leather. The facia, doors, seats and centre console are all clad from top to bottom in leather. Even the floor mats are bound with leather!

A new seat style has been introduced that incorporates contrast stitching and semi-aniline Autobiography leather. The semi-aniline is the softest grade of leather available. The softness is achieved by applying the minimum amount of treatment which necessitates selection of only the very best hides. The semi-aniline Autobiography leather is used to cover the complete seat, front and back.

The Autobiography derivative will also have a full leather facia in a soft grain finish - again with stitching detail. The leather will cover the facia topper, the glove box lids, the area around the centre vents, behind the steering wheel and even the driver's knee airbag cover.

In going a stage further, the Autobiography derivative also has full leather covering of the front and rear door casings including the door bins. The soft grain used on the door casings and leather facia provides a truly luxurious interior that is a match for any automotive interior.

In addition to the copious amounts of leather the Range Rover Autobiography also features Acoustic and "Climate" glass, on both the windscreen and front side windows. The Acoustic glass has the effect of reducing cabin noise, whilst the Climate glass reflects infrared rays to reduce the effect of heat soak and sunlight. This in turn reduces the air conditioning load.

From an external view the Range Rover Vogue Autobiography also features new 20-inch diamond-turned twin-seven-spoke alloy wheels. Both the TDV8 and Supercharged petrol derivatives feature the Diamond Mesh grille and side vents, black and silver badging and stainless steel detailing on brake and accelerator pedals.

Roger Jory, Land Rover Australia General Manager commented: "The new Range Rover Vogue Autobiography further enhances what is already the world's most complete luxury 4x4, offering even higher quality materials and finishes with the ability to personalise your vehicle to suit your own sense of taste and style."
