Carbon Revolution announced that it will supply the wheels available on the Range Rover Sport SV Edition Two. The Tier 1 OEM supplier produces automotive carbon fiber wheels for a variety of applications.
“It’s wonderful to see JLR extending its offering of our lightweight carbon fiber wheels, after the option was so popular on the Edition One,” said Carbon Revolution CEO Jake Dingle. “The 23-inch carbon fiber wheel option improves handling, acceleration and ride quality, increasing the Range Rover SV’s performance through the exceptional reduction in unsprung, rotating mass.”
The 23-inch single piece carbon fiber wheels contribute to a vehicle weight saving of 167.6 pounds (76kg), which JLR claims allows the Range Rover Sport SV to accelerate 0-60mph in as little as 3.6 seconds.
“As wheels get larger in diameter the weight saving we offer becomes more pronounced. It’s clear that consumers are really appreciating the benefits of saving this much weight,” Dingle said.
Built on the Company’s Mega-line, the carbon fiber wheels are available in a Satin and a Gloss finish, both of which feature Carbon Revolution’s patent-pending Diamond Weave Technology.
Carbon Revolution recently won at the 2024 Automotive News Pace Awards, which recognize automotive suppliers for superior innovation, technological advancement, and business performance.
