He called passed the 5 hours and left a message saying I should follow this with the customer service representative, like ignoring my request of talking to him…. She said he would call in the next 5 hours which he didn’t. What type of solution is this? I asked to talk to her supervisor. Her only “solution” was for me to keep taking my car to the dealer. She didn’t explain why or what was the criteria. The dealer suggested me that I contact Land Rover Customer Service for a Re-Purchase, as it’s obvious to me I have a defective car… After talking to someone for 38 minutes, she asked me many questions about my car, even if I have already paid for the car which we did, she simply said my case didn’t apply for re-purchase. But after taking the car 2 times, in less than a month my engine light went on AGAIN!! I was so upset and frustrated. They checked everything and in less than a month, my engine light was on! Took the car AGAIN and they said it was another engine software (not sure why no one update this when I took the car for my annual service?). Then I had to take the car for the Annual Service. I also had a weird noise with the breaks. I thought I should not waste … my time taking the car to the dealer but did it…. I took the car in two opportunities and they explained these cars usually need software updates. First issues were mostly electrical (screen not working, error messages while being stopped at a red light, back camera not working, etc. ![]() Pricier models add larger wheels (20 to 22 inches), more aggressive styling, upgraded leather upholstery, a Meridian sound system and Pixel LED lights.Unfortunately, since the time I bought this car (end of September 2018) I had many issues with my new Land Rover Velar 2019. Every Velar is equipped with alloy wheels (starting at 19 inches), a fixed panoramic roof, LED headlights, leather upholstery, heated front seats, a 12.3-inch digital driver’s display, 11.4-inch Pivi Pro touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, a rear-view camera and several driver-assistance systems. There are currently four trim levels to choose from: S, Dynamic SE, Dynamic HSE and Autobiography. If you're looking for a 296bhp P300 model, or the 542bhp SVAutobiography Dynamic Edition (badged P550), then it'll have to be a used example, as both have been removed from the Velar price list. ![]() There’s no EV version of the Velar unfortunately, but we have learned that the next-generation model will be all-electric. If you want a stepping stone to living with an electric car, or are on the hunt for a stylish SUV for your next company car, then the plug-in hybrid P400e combines a 2.0-litre petrol engine and electric motor for a 398bhp total power output, plus a pure-electric driving range of up to 40 miles. The P250 is the only one of the four engines that doesn’t feature mild-hybrid technology. Petrol options kick off with a 247bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder badged as the P250, while the more powerful P400 pumps out 394bhp from its 3.0-litre six-cylinder. ![]() It’s also the closest model in the Range Rover lineup to a coupe-SUV, meaning it must contend with the likes of the Audi Q5 Sportback, BMW X4 and Mercedes GLC Coupe, too. The rakishly elegant Range Rover Velar is JLR’s entry into the premium mid-size SUV segment, and so must do battle with a variety of highly-rated competitors including our current favourite in this class – the Lexus NX – as well as the Audi Q5, BMW X3 and all-electric iX3, Mercedes GLC, Porsche Macan, Volvo XC60 and Jaguar’s own F-Pace.īut the Velar’s tapered roofline and elegant rear quarters are clearly not designed for maximum practicality like its boxier rivals. But the updated SUV heavily prioritises form over function, ditching physical controls for the sake of an uber-minimalist look, and can only carry four people comfortably. It’s spacious, well finished and features JLR’s excellent Pivi Pro infotainment system from its flagship Range Rover and Range Rover Sport models. However, the Velar’s interior is something of a mixed bag. There’s a good selection of engines, including a plug-in hybrid that’ll appeal to company car drivers, and for a car of this size, the Velar is surprisingly decent to drive. The Range Rover Velar is a supremely stylish SUV that offers the level of comfort and refinement you’d expect from any car that bears the Range Rover name.
