  • Mike Gurr reviews the Range Rover Velar. This is the fully loaded HSE model with a 380 supercharged V6 engine. The Velar is also sold with a base diesel engine, however it isn't the potent 3.0L V6 found in the Range Rover Sport but a 4-cylinder engine. The Velar showcases the new interior look and technology for the top Land Rover brand, with two centre screens and a driver digital dashboard. The Range Rover Velar is a mid-size utility based on the same platform as the Jaguar F-Pace but with added air suspension and more off-road ready technology. The price of the Velar can add up quickly making the Range Rover sport an option for roughly the same money.

    No one else has said it? Props on the hard work editing and filming this video. It hasn't gone unnoticed, keep it up.

      Adam C I think the ones with the European style plates were released by Land Rover themselves. He just filmed himself driving and put the music on there.

    It's a great car, and it's ahead of the competition in terms of space, technology, luxury, comfort, and style

    I remember that storm well. I was driving a rental Flex Ltd. through Toronto (N.Falls back to Ottawa) thinking “WOW, Zack on the West Coast, doesn’t have to deal with THiS kind of weather”. Apparently... YOU do/did! Quite a splendid review. Thanks so much.

    Excellent review, great filming and editing. I came very close to purchasing a Velar. On the day I was supposed to pay my deposit I got cold feet. There are too many current Velar owners reporting frustrating problems. Many of the issues are minor but for $90,000 Canadian dollars I don't want those problems. It's too bad because the Velar is a lovely vehicle that falls nicely between the larger Audi Q7 or Mercedes GLS and the smaller Q5/X3 etc. As a current Jaguar owner and fan of the brand, I hope JLR can improve on these issues for the 2019 model year

    Is the video shot at 18 by 9 aspect ratio? Great review!

    I've also had difficulty in placing the market alignment for this car, but I think I might be close. Because of how low it sits normally, and how prominent the length of it feels, there's an whiff of "estate" or "station wagon" to it. It kind of feels like Land Rovers interpretation of what an Estate car is.
    It is really comfortable and definitely more capable off road than I thought it would be, what also strikes me is actually how quiet it is as well, not as much as it's Bigger Brothers, but it's really not bad. I'm really impressed by it. :)

    in 2019 all I want to know is what are they doing about the door handles in the winter? That is all I want to know. One video eluded to a fix from the UK was coming?

    Currently, the best looking SUV's are the Velar, and the XC90... It's just a shame that Volvo stubbornly only offers a 4-banger or hybrid.

    What was the term ... oh yeah, “sleek and reductionist”. Great review Mike. Way to make it interesting! Wish I was in the 100K snack bracket! So many really good choices. Do you know if these are built in the UK? You never know these days ( Ford EcoSport imported from India, for example). CD/

      Christopher Douglas These are built in Solihull, England :) Most Range Rovers are, only Range Rovers that are built in India/China are made for the respective countries market to reduce import taxes I believe, but they are built in the UK.

    You're right, they are the best looking SUV on the road at present, but the infotainment system (though it looks easthetically pleasing and cool) just didn't impress me and actually lagged quite a bit when I tried one. If it had the BMW or Audi system then it would be the perfect vehicle, but it doesn't and people like me who rely heavily on their car's tech' might become frustrated with it once the initial excitement of the looks has faded.

    There has to be some kind of middle road between Styling, reliability and price. Range Rover, BMW, Mercedes and Jaguar SUV’s are made to be leased not owned. They just are not reliable. I can just imagine after about 5 years of ownership with this Ranger Rover when not only the mechanicals are failing but also those nice pretty electronic screens are acting up.......I’ll pass. I’m actually looking forward to the 2019 or 2020 Acura MDX redesign. The 2019 RDX Redesign is great with a really nice interior which bodes well for the new MDX that even now offers decent looks a good price and most importantly reliability.........

    • @KidKingdomHearts

      Actually according to JD Power and Consumer Reports, Acura have fallen a lot in Realiability because of the transmission issues and outdated interior compared to their Honda (Accord for ex.) Counterparts

    It does have great proportions but that styling already looks outdated.
