Unveiled on Wednesday at London’s new Design Museum, Range Rover’s 2018 Velar is a new, rapacious entry into the luxury SUV market. The Velar will fit between enter Ranger Rover Sport and the Evoque, a more avant-garde and technologically-savvy offering loaded with massaging front seats, two 10-inch infotainment screens in the rear and a 5-inch electronic dashboard for the driver.
According to Jalopnik, the Velar features “six powertrain options, including two four-cylinder diesel variants with 178 horsepower and 237 HP, a four-cylinder regular gas engine with 247 HP, a V6 diesel and a supercharged V6 with 375 HP.”
Range Rover is showing the new SUV next week at the Geneva Auto Show, and it will roll out to dealers in July starting at a cool $55,700 (USD).
