Land Rover has revealed its All-New Range Rover Velar,
designed to fill the white space between the Range Rover Evoque and Range Rover
Sport. The Velar brings a new dimension of glamour, modernity and elegance to the
Range Rover family, offering levels of luxury, refinement and all-terrain
capability never before seen in the mid-size SUV segment.
Created using Jaguar Land Rover’s Lightweight
Aluminium Architecture, the Velar is defined by a visually reductive approach
and meticulous attention to precision in every detail, which evolves Range
Rover DNA and previews the next generation of Range Rover vehicles. Velar’s
design is beautifully balanced, from its powerful proportions to its continuous
waist line through to the taut tapered lines of the rear. The generous
wheelbase contributes significantly to its elegance while helping to provide a
spacious interior.
Design enabling technology has been engaged fully to
create the new Touch Pro Duo infotainment system which is the centerpiece of
Velar’s interior. Touch Pro Duo features two 10-inch high-definition
touchscreens integrated seamlessly behind secret-until-lit surfaces.
The Velar delivers exceptional levels of crash
protection that meets crash test regulations worldwide. Combined with a comprehensive
restraints system that includes six airbags, and a suite of advanced driver
assistance systems including Adaptive Cruise Control with Queue Assist and an
Adaptive Speed Limiter, the Velar integrates the latest safety technology.
Exceptional performance and efficiency comes from
the range of four petrol and diesel powertrains, all matched to smooth-shifting
ZF eight-speed automatic transmissions and all-wheel drive with Intelligent
Driveline Dynamics.
