Range Rover Velar Review, For Sale, Interior, Colours, Models & Specs

FROM
$104,898

The Range Rover Velar caused a stir when it launched in 2017 in Australia, where it plugged the gap between the smaller Evoque and larger Range Rover Sport models.

With liquid sleek lines, pop-out door handles and almost wagon-like silhouette, this luxury SUV offered an intriguing alternative to the butch, bulky models also offered under the Land Rover banner. Its interior moved the game forward for the British company, too, with a high-tech edge to the cabin that hadn’t been seen to that point.

The current Range Rover Velar line-up starts at $104,898 for the Range Rover Velar P250 Dynamic SE (184KW), and goes all the way up to $156,403 for the Range Rover Velar P400 Autobiography (294KW) – and you’re getting plenty of go for your dough, there.

Range Rover Velar Interior

The interior of the Velar is now even more pared back than the pre-facelifted model it replaces.

The dashboard and doors hold a plethora of open but well-padded empty spaces which accentuates the minimalistic vibe the entire cabin sports.

The dashboard is headlined by a floating-effect 11.4-inch touchscreen multimedia system but all the buttons and dials are gone.

There is a small nubby-looking gear-shifter that sits in the middle of the empty centre console but all grades have the option of upgrading their internal accent trims.

A panoramic sunroof comes standard on higher grades.
