The L494 Range Rover Sport SVR was Land Rover Special Vehicle Operations' first true performance SUV, sold from 2014 through to the end of L494 production in 2022. The SVR ran the supercharged 5.0-litre AJ-V8 at 550 hp and then 575 hp from the 2018 facelift, with the 0–60 mph time pulled into the high-three-second range. Mansory built its programme around that car: a 21-piece carbon kit that adds visible-weave panels, fender flares and a deeper aero set without touching the SVR's running gear. It is a bolt-on conversion — every panel attaches to the OEM mounting points, no permanent body work required, and the SVR's homologated mechanical package stays exactly as it left Solihull.
Sister builds in the Land Rover catalogue: the standard Range Rover Sport for non-SVR L494s, the 2015 SVR programme for the pre-facelift car, and the SVR new and Range Rover Sport SV programmes for the L461 generation.
The set is supplied complete or piece-by-piece. Everything is autoclave-cured carbon; the visible-weave parts ship in the Mansory raw finish and are typically installed straight from the crate, while the painted-over pieces (the diffuser blade, the bumper insert) are colour-matched to the donor.
Front end (6 pieces)
Sides (5 pieces)
Rear end (10 pieces)
Every part of the SVR kit is hand-laid in dry carbon, autoclave-cured to T-380 grade, and finished raw rather than under clear coat. That choice is deliberate — the SVR's flat exterior surfaces (the bonnet, the roof, the side panels) are the largest visible OEM canvases in the lineup, and the visible-weave inserts read instantly against the painted shell. The fender flare extensions add roughly 25 mm of width per side (50 mm total), which is enough to clear a wider wheel-and-tyre package without losing the OEM door-line geometry. None of the panels replace structural body parts; the SVR keeps its homologated dimensions.
Mansory pairs the SVR kit with forged wheels in 22" and 23" diameters, typically a five- or six-spoke design with deep-concave centres. Other Mansory and partner forged designs are available — the full range sits in the forged wheels collection and can be configured to the SVR's centre-bore and PCD. The supercharged 5.0 V8 is left at the factory output (550 hp pre-facelift, 575 hp post-2018) on this build. Mansory does offer a power module for the SVR that lifts output toward 700 hp on the same long block, but it is a separate option, not part of the carbon set.
The kit fits the L494 Range Rover Sport SVR (production years 2014–2022, both pre- and post-2018 facelift). It does not fit the standard L494 Range Rover Sport without the SVR front-end geometry — the SVR's wider OEM bumpers and intake openings are the mounting reference. Owners of the standard L494 Sport should look at the non-SVR Sport programme, and owners of the L461 Range Rover Sport SV should use the SV-specific kit. Install at a competent body shop is a one-day project; reinforced by Mansory's published 8-hour bench time on the full set.

The SVR carbon programme is the build that transitions the L494 from "performance Land Rover" to "Mansory build" without changing what the SVR actually is. The 5.0 supercharged V8 stays under the bonnet at 575 hp, the SVR's homologated chassis numbers are preserved, the standard SVO-spec adaptive dampers and brake hardware are not touched. What changes is the visual language: the visible-weave fenders and the deeper front splitter pull the car into the Mansory family alongside the Bentayga and the G-Wagen. For owners who bought the SVR as the performance flagship of the L494 line and want the Mansory finish without the L461-generation rebuild, this is the right kit.
The L494 SVR is, geographically, a British car first and a Commonwealth-and-financial-centre car second. Most of the SVR kits we ship leave for the UK home market, where the SVR has the deepest installed base — typical destinations are Mayfair, Surrey and the Cheshire "golden triangle". The next biggest cluster is Ireland (Ireland — Dublin and Cork installer base), with the Channel Islands and Crown Dependencies — Jersey and the Isle of Man — taking a steady share thanks to the resident-owner profile. Outside the British Isles the SVR ships heaviest into Bermuda and the Swiss alpine corridor (Geneva and Gstaad), and we maintain a separate freight lane through the Tsar body kits and wheels programme for owners shipping into Russia and the wider CIS.
The SVR set ships as a complete 21-piece kit or one part at a time. Production from the workshop is four to six weeks for a full kit; in-stock pieces — typically the front bumper lip, the fender flares and the rear wing — leave faster. Most owners order the full set together to guarantee panel-gap consistency, but the front lip on its own is a popular first step.

Will this kit fit the standard L494 Range Rover Sport (non-SVR)?
No. The SVR uses a wider OEM front bumper with larger intake openings, and the kit's front lip and intake covers are dimensioned around that face. For the standard L494 Sport the right starting point is the non-SVR Sport programme.
Pre-facelift (2014–2017) vs facelift (2018–2022) SVR — same kit?
Yes for the rear end and the sides. The front bumper lip and grille mask differ between the two facelift generations because the headlight and bumper line were redrawn in 2018; the kit ships with the variant that matches your VIN. Confirm pre- or post-facelift when you order.
Does the kit lift output above 575 hp?
Not on its own. The SVR carbon kit is a bodywork programme — the 5.0 supercharged V8 is left at OEM output. Mansory does offer a separate power module for the SVR that lifts the long-block toward roughly 700 hp; it can be specified at the same time as the carbon set but is not part of it.
How much wider does the car get with the fender flares?
Roughly 25 mm per side at the maximum point — about 50 mm total over the OEM SVR width. That is enough to clear the wider 22"/23" Mansory forged wheel-and-tyre package without scrubbing the inner liner.
Can the kit be removed without permanent damage?
Yes. Every panel attaches to the OEM mounting points or to factory adhesive lines that release cleanly. The SVR can be returned to fully OEM body in a single shop day if a future owner wants to revert.
Is paint-to-match possible on the visible-carbon panels?
Yes — most owners leave the front lip, the fender flares and the rear wing in raw weave, but every panel can be painted body-colour on request. Specify per-piece when you order; the workshop will deliver pre-painted to the spec.
