Land Rover Autobiography Ultimate Edition – the First Car to Include iPads as Standard Equipment

Range Rover Autobiography Ultimate Edition – the most luxurious Range Rover ever


Range Rover Autobiography Ultimate Edition is billed as the most luxurious Range Rover ever.To get there, Land Rover has outfitted the new SUV model with a veritable first-class cabin that includes 4 individual buckets, separated front and back by middle console with aluminum tray tables and a drinks cooler in the back. 

The rear-seat passengers have acces to a pair of Apple iPads docked into the front seatbacks, and the cargo area gets a yacht-inspired teak deck. Of course the leather is top notch, offset by Kalahari wood veneers. The hand-crafted Range Rover Autobiography Ultimate Edition is the first car to include iPads as standard equipment.

While Range Rover’s new Land Rover may not be the first car to provide iPad support, it is the first car company to include two iPads as standard equipment.  BMW, Mercedes and Audi all introduced iPad support earlier last year and Korean car maker Hyundai even equipped their new Equus luxury sedan with an iPad owners manual.

The exterior has a dark grille, color-keyed door handles, along with the requisite special badging and unique 20-inch alloys. Prospective buyers can choose from either the 4.4-liter V8 turbodiesel or the 5.0-liter supercharged V8, both mated to ZF’s eight-speed automatic transmission and capable of catapulting the truck to sixty in 7.5 or 5.1 seconds respectively.Autobiography Ultimate Edition is set to be unveiled at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show 2011.
