This is for the buyer who wants a Range Rover that turns heads at the cafe more than the campsite. The Velar sits between the small Evoque and the larger Sport, leaning hard on design with flush door handles and a minimalist cabin. It is aimed at the style conscious buyer cross shopping an Audi Q5 or a Jaguar F-Pace.
Jenny's review walks through the twin screen interior that looks superb and asks a bit much of you on the move, since common tasks live behind glass. The seats are comfy, the driving position is commanding and the ride suits Australian back roads better than the low profile tyres suggest. It is happiest on tar, though the badge means it can still handle a gravel driveway without fuss.
If looks and cabin theatre top your list, the Velar earns its money. Buyers who want serious off road ability or simple physical buttons may find it style over substance in places. For kerb appeal with a Land Rover badge, few rivals match it.
