Range Rover Velar now also available in a mild hybrid derivative

Petrol, diesel or hybrid? If you insist on driving a Velar, you are now truly spoiled for choice!

The Land Rover Velar line-up in South Africa now offers you no fewer than 13 models.

This award-winning mid-size luxury SUV range boasts a 2.0-litre four-cylinder P400e plug-in hybrid offering a combined 297kW and 640Nm of torque from its 221kW petrol engine and 105kW electric motor and accelerates from 0-100km/h in 5.4 seconds.

The P340 generates 250kW and 480Nm to deliver an impressive 0-100km/h time of 6.3 seconds.

Additional engine options include a next-generation four-cylinder Ingenium D200 diesel with 147kW, a straight-six D300 diesel, which delivers 221kW and a hefty 650Nm torque, and a 184kW petrol four-cylinder P250 with a 0-100km/h figure of 7.5 seconds.


Pivi infotainment

Velar features a reductive design emphasised with beautifully integrated digital screens that are fitted with Land Rover’s state-of-the-art infotainment system, Pivi and Pivi Pro. The intelligent and intuitive system, offered as Pivi Pro from an S-specification pack, transforms the digital experience inside Velar.


Health and well-being

The entire Range Rover Velar range has been enhanced to deliver the most rewarding and refined driving experience. Active Road Noise Cancellation technology is accompanied by Cabin Air Purification Plus, which optimises interior air quality, and the expanded Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) now include Rear Camera as standard and Adaptive Cruise Control with Steering Assist.
