When Land Rover was cooking up the Range Rover brand in the late 1960s, ‘Velar’ was given to its very first prototypes as a codename. As for its meaning, the word ‘Velar’ is the first-person singular present indicative of the Latin verb velare, which means to hide or veil.
The seats are appointed and other parts of the cabin in a non-leather, Dapple Grey material that was jointly developed with Kvadrat, Europe’s leading manufacturer of high-quality design textiles. And I think it looks just as good, if not better, than leather and suits the Velar very well.
In Europe, the Range Rover Velar will be offered with a large selection of engines, including a 2.0-liter four-cylinder diesel unit with outputs of either 180PS and 240PS, a 3.0-liter V6 diesel that makes 300PS, and a pair of petrol units — one a 250PS 2.0L unit and the other a 380PS 3.0L V6. North Americans will have the option of two gasoline engines — a 247hp 2.0-liter turbocharged four and a 380hp 3.0-liter supercharged V6 — and a 180hp 2.0-liter diesel.
