The model
Read full Range Rover Velar reviewThe 2024 Range Rover Velar is a refined, luxuriously equipped and seriously appealing SUV. Plus, if you keep to small wheels, it's a comfy companion. Just bear in mind that it’s best to stick to the cheaper trims and engines – once you start moving up the range, the price rises into the realms of better cars, such as the Audi Q8 and the BMW X6.
The trim
See full equipmentIn range-topping Autobiography trim the Velar is an expensive car. It comes with adaptive suspension (unless you go for a plug-in hybrid), 21in alloys and a Meridian 3D Surround Sound stereo, but the cheaper trims are easier to recommend.
The engine
See full engine specsWe’re yet to try the six-cylinder P400 petrol, but given how good the D300 diesel is – and how much better its real-world fuel economy is likely to be – it's the latter engine that's likely to be the better buy.
