Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Velar comes with all wheel drive. Available transmissions include: 8-speed shiftable automatic.Trim lineup restructured, with fewer variants than before.Additional features on new base Velar S model.Diesel engine has been discontinued, while a new supercharged V8 appears on the new top trim level.

Pros
Distinctive styling inside and out
Strong V6 engine
High-quality materials in the cabin

Cons
Infotainment system is frustrating to use
Rear legroom is a little tight
Overly firm ride

By:

The high-performance SV Autobiography Dynamic edition joins the lineup for 2020, powered by a rip-snorting supercharged 5.0-liter V-8 making 550 horsepower. We've driven it already, and it's awesome. Elsewhere, Land Rover has made more minor updates, such as making Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration across the Velar lineup and fitting the base S model with driver-assistance tech such as blind-spot monitoring, 14-way power-adjustable front seats, a power-adjustable steering column, and SiriusXM satellite radio.

Pros
Avant-garde styling, large cargo space, high-end interior design.

Cons
Finicky infotainment system, grumbly engines, eye-popping price tags.

Pros

Almost certainly better on road
Updated, roomier interior
Still brims with character

Is it too derivative?

Only one off-road mode
Bound to be wildly expensive
