British luxury carmaker Land Rover on Wednesday launched the most expensive SUV ever sold in Korea. The long-wheelbase Range Rover Autobiography Black costs a cool W268.2 million (US$1=W1,108).
Since the SUV targets customers who can afford a driver, Land Rover went to extra lengths to ensure that the passenger seats are top quality.
The rear seats tilt back up to 17 degrees and come with leg rests and massage functions. They also have 10.2-inch infotainment screens and retractable walnut tray tables.
