Overview
Range Rover Velar 2022 is a compact SUV driven by the style of Land Rover. It has also won a place with its luxurious brothers with its high-end atmosphere. It is equipped with a turbocharged four-cylinder engine or a turbocharged and supercharged inline six-cylinder engine, but the Velar chassis lacks the calmness and charm that we think is attractive on rival SUVs such as the BMW X3, Genesis GV70 or Porsche Macan. If you are more interested in comfortable cruisers, Velar is more likely to satisfy you, especially when you prioritize stylish high-tech cabins. Widescreen infotainment system is standard, and Velar’s internal design matches the avant-garde style of the exterior.
What’s new in 2022?
In 2022, Velar only made minor changes. Heated front seats are now standard for the entire series, and a new cabin air filtration system with ionization is now available as an option. The updated adaptive cruise control function that provides road steering assist and off-road mode is also a new optional feature. Ostuni Pearl White and Lantau Bronze Metal add to the available palette.
Price and which to buy
We recommend buying the P250 R-Dynamic S, which adds 19-inch wheels, dual exhaust pipes with polished finish, black grille, and leather and suede interior. We also recommend adding a dynamic processing package, which includes an adjustable suspension system, drive mode selector and all-terrain progress control, which can be used as an adaptive cruise control at low speeds or under severe conditions.
Engine, transmission and performance
The basic engine is a 247-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. The performance is good enough, but it is difficult to replace the huge weight of Velar.We sampled a four-cylinder Velar for 40,000 miles of long-term testing, And this model takes 7.4 seconds to reach 60 mph. Turbocharged and supercharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine will undoubtedly provide better acceleration performance, but we have not tested this new power system, it has 335 or 395 horsepower version. Like Velar’s acceleration, its handling is by no means sporty. The suspension can effectively control the movement of the SUV body and control the body roll, while providing a stable and well-managed riding experience. Models equipped with optional air suspension can raise and lower their ride height for more dynamic movement on the road or greater agility when off-road.
Real-world fuel economy and MPG
EPA rated Velar’s inline six-cylinder engine up to 20 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway, but the turbocharged four-cylinder engine is slightly more efficient, at 21 mpg in the city and on the highway. It is 27 mpg. . exist Our 75 mph highway fuel economy test, The fuel consumption of the four-cylinder Velar is only 26 mpg.For more information on Velar fuel economy, please visit EPA website.
Interior, comfort and load capacity
Excavating modern buildings? You might like Velar’s simple interior, which is mainly represented by horizontal lines and bold straight lines. Oh, and the materials used are of high quality and deployed in a fun way. Take the door trim as an example: Land Rover does not use wood or carbon fiber spray guns embedded in the top of the door panel, but adds wood or metal of the owner’s choice to the door panel, the door part between the top and bottom panels. Our test vehicle is decorated with aluminum, and each Velar has excellent details. The Velar usually has a boxy shape and a visually pleasing rear suspension-the body extends behind the rear wheels-and it can swallow more of the body than its direct competitors with the rear seats up or down. luggage. We placed 10 carry-on luggage behind the rear seats and 23 folded all seats.
Infotainment and connectivity
Of course, if we do not tilt the dual touch screen on the dashboard that looks very futuristic while discussing the interior, we will be negligent. The two 10.0-inch displays run Land Rover’s new Pivi Pro infotainment interface, which is easier to use and more responsive than last year’s InControl Touch Pro system, but not without its quirks. Bluetooth phone and audio connection, voice control, eight speakers, dashboard navigation and Apple CarPlay / Android Auto integration are all standard. A better sound system with more speakers and SiriusXM satellite broadcasting requires additional options or upgrades to Velar’s decorative level.
Safety and driver assistance functions
Land Rover provides the latest Driving assistance technology Examples include automatic emergency braking, blind spot monitoring, lane keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control on the Velar. For more information about the Velar crash test results, please visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) And the Road Safety Insurance Association (International Institute of Health and Safety) Website. The main security features include:
- Standard automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection
- Standard lane departure warning and lane keeping assist
- Adaptive cruise control can be used for power steering
Warranty and maintenance scope
Velar’s four-year 50,000-mile limited warranty is roughly equivalent to that of its competitors. Interesting way, F-Pace is mechanically similar to Jaguar Provides a stronger warranty and a free five-year 60,000-mile regular maintenance plan; the latter is what Land Rover only provides as a dealer add-on.
- Limited warranty covers four years or 50,000 miles
- Powertrain warranty covers four years or 50,000 miles
- No free regular maintenance
