MAGNIFICENT LUSTRE: RANGE ROVER DEVELOPS MIRROR-LIKE PAINT FINISH FOR BESPOKE CLIENTS

Range Rover has unveiled mirror‑finish, a new hand‑crafted process that delivers a glass‑like lustre and an unprecedented depth of shine on all Bespoke gloss paint commissions. Developed to reflect the clarity and refinement of patent leather and polished stone, the mirror finish raises the standard for personalised exterior finishes across Range Rover and Range Rover Sport.

The announcement follows Range Rover’s busiest‑ever year for its Bespoke service, with an unprecedented number of commissions and editions. These include the Range Rover Fifty‑Five Edition; a celebration of the original 1970 Lincoln Green Range Rover, as well as the Range Rover Asilomar; inspired by the blue hues of Monterey Bay, which featured a duo‑tone exterior and custom, hand‑crafted embroidery.

A new benchmark in paint technology

The exquisite mirror‑finish is now available on Bespoke commissions for Range Rover and Range Rover Sport. A research project was commissioned to develop the most advanced paint process ever created within the brand, with the aim of recreating the clarity, glossiness and smoothness found in analogous luxury materials.

To deliver the pinnacle of Range Rover’s design, craftsmanship and individuality, experts from Bespoke created a new quality rating to benchmark the mirror finish against previous paint techniques. The new process, which includes a thicker top‑coat lacquer and extended polishing stages, delivers a 25 per cent uplift in smoothness, for a refined, glass‑like sheen.

Dedicated facilities and expanded capability

Expansion of the Range Rover Bespoke facilities in 2025 saw the introduction of booths dedicated to refined, hand‑finished executions of this paint technique, with every Bespoke gloss paint commission now receiving the immaculate mirror‑finish. These booths will also soon allow for more complex paint colours to be achieved in this finish, unlocking an expanded palette to inspire clients as they bring their unique vision to life.

The creation of mirror‑finish commissions is entrusted to in‑house experts, with the same craftspeople taking responsibility for a vehicle throughout the entire paint process, from its arrival at the Bespoke facility through to client handover. Vehicles are hand‑sprayed, sanded and polished as part of a three‑day artisanal process, with specialists using a wave scan reader to check the smoothness of the finish and to highlight any imperfections. Precisely hand polishing around 15 microns of lacquer off the vehicle gives the mirror‑finish gloss its deep, long‑lasting lustre.

Our new mirror finish is a perfect demonstration of what the Range Rover Bespoke philosophy stands for: refined craftsmanship, the highest levels of precision and the deepest personal connection. A new level of exterior refinement allows clients to express themselves with absolute clarity, whilst our artisans continue to push the boundaries of materiality and finishes to deliver one‑of‑one examples that are unmistakably Range Rover.
