In a test in Denmark it seems that they've tested a Charente grey, but in this picture you can seen the Charente grey in front of a Carpathian grey (my guess of the colours):

These Acklam guys must have a good relationship with a dealer. This is their second. Eiger grey this

Has anyone else seen carpathian and shadow pack? Atlas grey per configurator vs carpathian pack in reality?

Great finds 5.0!

Irrespective of how they got those cars to sell I have to say the videos are pretty well made. The Carpathian Grey over Caraway in particular looks amazing!

Eirik34 I think Carpathian with Silver Atlas will look very elegant. Which interior have you gone for? I find cars with the same exterior colour look quite different depending on the interior colour.

And good question on the colour of those cars in the picture you found. I agree the front car is Charente Grey. My guess is the rear car is the same colour which I know sounds crazy!

Horse86 I quite liked Waitomo Grey - my memory of it is that it is lighter and less brown than Charente but I only saw one Waitomo car and that was in a dealership.

BigFiat if I understand you correctly you have seen Carpathian with a shadow pack and felt the shadow pack looked like it was also Carpathian as opposed to whatever the normal shadow pack colour is? I have seen all three colour packs (ie silver, nickel and shadow) but I haven’t seen the shadow pack on Carpathian i’m afraid. My only reference point is the video 5.0 found. On one side the shadow pack looks like it is Carpathian:

We've gone for Perlino interior, together with clear glass, silver 1075 23" wheels, Atlas (AB) trims and Carpathian. Starting getting confident that this might be a a timeless, classy & elegant look

Sounds lovely Eirik34!

Long video of Eiger Grey here - and a glimpse behind the scenes of a factory collection.

Acklam have a third….

In the video he mentions the other two have sold.

Hi everyone. New joiner here. Im about to order the new Range Rover and like others on this thread I too am struggling with the colour choices. I am leaning towards either Batumi Gold or Charente but I cant decide between the two.

I really like the car in this Auto Express review. I am hoping that this is Batumi with Atlas nickel accents. I would really appreciate it if you could take a look and let me know either way? I really like the look of this car. The exterior is shown clearly towards the end of the video from 9.30 onwards.

Thank you

Definitely Nickel/Atlas trim and I am pretty sure it's Batumi.

I agree 5.0.

Rags bear in mind that all of the exterior footage of moving cars in the reviews in California is stock footage from Land Rover and doesn’t always match the car being driven.

There is a Batumi Gold car in this review, also with the nickel pack, at 2 minutes 20 secs.



I think you are in London - when I was in the Mayfair dealer a few weeks ago they had a Charente Grey car in the showroom with a black interior. Bedford has a Charente Grey LWB demonstrator with Perlino interior and a showroom SWB in the same colours in case you wanted to see the colour in the metal.

Thank you 5.0 and Freddy Bear. I have checked out the Charente but with black wheels and the shadow pack. Watford have that car in their showroom. I like the colour but not sure about the black accents. Pic below if anyone wants to see it.

I really like Batumi but its probably the "unsafe" choice out of the two. I like Batumi in the Auto Express video above ie with the nickel pack and those diamond cut alloys. I also really like it with the shadow pack, black alloys and black roof. I cant decide between the two tbh. Any thoughts / view on those two choices?

Rags I completely understand your dilemma!

I have seen three of the four combinations you mention (the one I haven’t seen is Batumi with shadow pack). Agree that Charente is probably the safer choice, and I prefer that with the silver atlas and diamond cut alloys. Looks more majestic to my eye - which isn’t to say I don’t like the shadow pack - that Carpathian Grey car that Acklam had for sale looks beautiful!

Don’t forget you will likely have plenty of time time to refine your choices before your spec is locked down and so you will see more cars in pictures and on the road.

In the meantime for those who like clear glass here are two treats - one Belgravia Green car in front of a Classic (someone may know the colour?) and one with wheels I don’t think we have seen pictures of before. Do click on the instagram link to see the video of the Belgravia Green car - looks like a LWB with caraway interior to me.

I will add the picture credits later.

Thanks for sharing these Freddy

Do you think the Belgravia Green in the video is LWB?

I'm starting to consider shifting to Belgravia Green SWB, just to get the clear glass, so you can see the contrast with the Caraway, but I think the LWB variant suits the car better.

Pleasure aja500!

Yes I do think the green car is a LWB - here is a screen grab from the video on Instagram. That rear door looks LWB to me - what do you think?

Thanks Freddy - I think you're in a similar position to me.

Currently I've ordered a 440e PHEV LWB in Belgravia / Caraway, but would rather not have the compulsory privacy glass, so I'm also considering P510e PHEV, same colour combo as above but with clear glass.

I'm also thinking about an SV Standard wheelbase in Varesine Blue, as I love the colour, but would configure this one with privacy glass.

Hopefully things will become clearer soon, after seeing more footage, images etc, but as things stand, I still don't have a clue which way to go.
