Heily - no I have had zero problems, I had that fear before I bought it because of what people say about Range Rovers. the only thing you have to get used to is the touch control screens, but once you get the hang of it it’s great
I'm a Mercedes fan but I believe as far as design is concerned the Velar is the best looking SUV in the market. Expect Mercedes to be superior when it comes to technology, performance when the 63 comes out, and reliability. Nice review , all the best.
I had the Velar R-Dynamic P380, and it was one of the most enjoyable vehicles I have ever driven. Also an eye-catcher (though I see other manufacturers are starting to copy some of the RR "trademarks" - angles, even the shape of the wrap-around headlights and tail lights). I only parted ways with mine because it was about to go out of warranty. In Dynamic mode, what a fun ride, and a wonderful supercharger spool sound from under the hood! I would say that the seats are quite firm, which is nice in cornering but can make a long trip a little uncomfortable. Additionally, vision out the rear window is limited. Exhaust signature is muted, even in Dynamic - if you want exhaust pop, go for its cousin, the Jaguar F-Pace. I now have the AMG GLE 53. It took me a week to figure out how multiple-redundant it was - perhaps a tad overcomplex. Put into Sport+ mode (the only way I think someone should drive an AMG), and it is a fun car as well, with pleasing muffler pop. The electric motor alows you to take off from a dead stop as if the turbo were fully spooled. Overall the interior is much more refined vs. the almost racecar feel in the Velar - almost captian's chairs vs. the Velar's bucket seats. The seats are comfy enough to take a long drive in and the rear vision provides a much bigger picture. On the "meh" side, you see a lot of GLEs - enough that they really don't stand out (even the AMG). Additionally, for a car this nice, they should have hidden the rear wiper under the spoiler - ain't that difficult. Bottom line - I'll take either one if offered - but only in the turbo (AMG) or supercharged (Velar) V6 or V8 (GLE 63 S and Velar SVR, respectively). Leave the four cylinders for the GLAs and Evoques.
But so laggy. I have tested two today. I have also tried the Mercedes and it’s impressive, fast, bright, clear and doesn’t leave fingerprints unlike the Velar. Like the guy said, it looks way dated. Don’t get me wrong, the Velar is the one I’d take
It is slow, it often bug, especially the Apple-car play...I hate the metal ring on the steering wheel. It burns in summer and it is f#### cold in winter. I will go for the GLE 350 de for next car. By the way, you should not compare the Velar to the GLE. GLC would be more realistic. Let the GLE compare to the RR Sport.
The first time I saw the velar was 3 years ago and honestly I couldn't take my eyes off it, is so attractive and the design is magnificent, I like range rover sport and the evoque but this one looks incredible
If you exclude the looks inside and out and the driving fun, the GLE comes out on top, it has more tech, more interior space, better ride comfort, better cabin isolation, and better quality even though it is no Toyota
Verry tough choise. At first when I saw the GLE I tought it looked too feminine, but after seeing it more and more I start too like it. I think style wise I choose the Velar. But Quality wise I choose the Merc.
My husband and I just got a 2021 velar p340s r dynamic and absolutely love it. It’s a very sporty, quick SUV that is capable for what we need. (Snow driving) However the Mercedes looks badass. Beautiful aggressive looking vehicle.
Ive owned both. The velar looks the part, nobody can deny it’s looks. BUT, the Mercedes is just better in every other department. Which is why I’ve just traded in my velar for another GLE. It’s also a flip of a coin with landrover as to whether you get a goodun or a Badun….my velar was a shit show. Door handle covers always falling off, CarPlay constantly failing. All kinds of mechanical faults resulting in endless trips to guy salmon (my local dealership). All in the span of three months ownership. Sat in my new GLE that I picked up today right now as I’m typing this, feeling like I’ve just managed to get rid of a ticking time bomb (my velar). I personally would never go near a Range Rover again.
@@fsan5382 Ahh, my friend. Brutal. 4k the water pump went, 6.5k the fuel pump went. Pano sunroof leaked, sunshade rattled, drive door pillar was not aligned properly, so there was constant road noise, sounded as if the window was cracked open. Infotainment center went black all the time and would default to high heat, you'd be unable to adjust any functions, exhaust pipes rattled. Fuel pump went for a second time around the 14k mile mark, lost power on the highway and had to have it towed back to the dealership. Had it fixed and a few days later I traded it in for a GLE 53. Best car I've owned.
@@sperrin198787 Wow, that sounds horrible. You would expect a luxury vehicle to have little to no problems. I Appreciate your reply mate, you just convinced me to not buy one. Cheers
Merc is no doubt a better car in almost every respect.. but I’d still chose the Range Rover every time. Not really sure why - it just has so much more appeal. Much smarter looking compared to the fussy looking Merc and just seems to have more class about it.
@Realist 1801 i sold my 04 rrs clock 163000km not long ago , best car that i ever hd, love it n no issues at all, driven the G now.most of keyboard warrior and salty idiots never owned it , just bra bra bra👎👎
@Realist 1801 both land rover products you just mentioned is entry level the range rover velar and sport is a more better vehicle than both vehicles you hade despite the fact I hade the disco sport when it first came out ot made me buy a full size range rover 2019 and I love people In benz products look at my vehicle. Honestly if it isn't a g wagon or any type of S class benz products aren't really that good at this point your buying based off the symbol

LAND ROVER IS THE LAST IN THE FIABILITY LIST! TERRIBLE QUALITY CARS. MINE 7 TIMES TO THE WORKSHOP IN YEAR A HALF! ! AND THE ARE FULL OF CARS WITH PROBLEMS
You want one no matter what the price, because after you lock it, you’ll never tire of turning round for one last look before you go through the front door. - Jeremy Clarkson on the Velar
Mercedes makes the best hands free tailgate... part of the reason I chose it - plus I really liked the mild hybrid EQ boosted power train, and as stated in the video, it is just about as quiet as a Rolls. That's what I want in my SUV, a luxury vehicle experience. I don't want my SUV trying to be a sports car... that's what my sports car is for. My wife preferred the Velar, but only because it was prettier. They're both gorgeous, but when you consider the fine details, build quality, materials, functionality, and dependability, the Mercedes is a class above the Velar.
Like your wife, I love the look of the Velar, but I'm finding a lot of negative reviews on it. The Mercedes has fantastic reviews and it really is a beautiful SUV. I'm torn! lol I want both! :)
This is the first review I write on TH-cam, but it can't be any other way. I bought a Velar D275 black edition. After 3 months I can say that you cannot buy a better car. The Velar has a few small flaws, such as slow entertainment, opening the rear doors with the movement of the foot or pull-out handles that cause problems in the winter. However, the positives outweigh these shortcomings. Every morning when you go to your car you feel like a work of art is standing in front of you. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the most beautiful car in the world. Elegant lines, design for gentlemen. I have the classic version. Personally, I think it's nicer than Rline because of the clean lines (that's a matter of taste). When you press the button to open the door and the lights come on, you feel like you're getting into a spaceship. We don't have to talk about comfort inside at all - that's a dream. The air suspension is brilliant. The driving modes do exactly what you expect. If you go off-road with the Velar, you will find out that cars like BMW X4/5/6, Audi Q series, Mercedes GLA, GLC, GLS are only for laughs. Don't believe that there is a better sound system than Meridian - there isn't. This car has a couple of technological shortcomings, which you will not notice at all if you buy it. I personally have to state that I have fallen in love with these little things and they make this car unique and different for me. As much as you love a freckle on your wife's face, you will love these little things too. This car is different, unique and perfectly designed, I can't imagine a design that can beat this. This car has a unique character! Ladies and gentlemen this is the Velar! God, masterpiece!
No doubt, LR is a car of choice for personality, identity. Off-road capabilities won't be used, but they characterize the car on every other route anyway. And by mechanical sophistication it's better value.
zandra perry-ogbomo in the review , the merc was not a 4matic. The 4matic is unbeatable, and nothing comes close to the Benz... styling, infotainment and RELIABILITY. Did I say reliably?
@@ramsaybolton9099 Listen carefully to what he actually said at 13:50 and you will also notice that both the front and rear wheels are spinning. He just said it "doesn't have the more sophisticated 4matic system" but it's still 4matic (probably rebadged) because it is still an and car, it's just worse off road than the Velar
Our family own RR velar, Vogue, Mercedes, and BMW..I always love the onpoint drive acceleration of BMW, the infotainment of Mercedes.. but Range Rovers are always sturdier, classy and more refined..
Purchased the MB300d 4 matic and it’s truly amazing... nothing compares to it period. The 2 liter engine has its torque at low rpms and it is much much quicker than the specs, overtaking is quick and sweet and estatic . Mbux is mind blowing, it makes everything else look like my grandfather’s pickup truck. The interior is extremely quiet and insanely roomy and it was nice that the tire profile is higher than the previous model since it gives a nicer ride and protects the rims from being scuffed. On the downside, the 7 seater has no spare tire, and the apple CarPlay/android auto is not wireless and did not come with garage door openers or soft close doors like my 2016 Gle did. Apparently these last 2 options are not available on British models, my 2016 was American. Finally, the British model was only available in the back interior, and I feel like I’m driving a rental car. ... rental cars have black interiors, so I’ll probably have the upholstery refinished. Nevertheless, it’s an amazing machine.
I just received my Velar 2020 four days ago. So far I’m happy with it, I had to choose between a Porsche Macan and Velar as my 40th birthday gift 🎁 from my husband. I chose a Velar. No regrets.
Looks like for you It's much more important to have space to place your 2L Coke botle next to you when drive your fency GLE, instead to realy see what a great car it's RR. By the way i drove a Evoque 5 years without any problem and now i own a RR Velar wich It's a fucking great car. 🤘
I'm merging from my Evoque to a Velar, I'm so comfortable with the size of my Evoque, that I cannot tell, can you help? Or can you share which is the most you like from your Velar? TY.
@@alonsopicharra9947 I am very pleased about Velar, although it is bigger than the Evoque you get used very quickly with its size, I have the 240hp model and it moves very well.
Yall just want the looks but the merc is much better overall, and range rovers are unreliable besides u would rather wanna get a rr sport than a velar but the merc is still better lol
@@tramany7 have u tried the merc it has better tech it has better safety it has better performance. I think your just salty because u have an rr its ok.🤷♂️well not salty but you are just saying that "the velar blows the mercedes away" because you have one try other cars before you say there bad or your car blows it away even tho u have not tried it ,and besides the velar is not even in the league of the gle. The gle is one league above thats why its 'BETTER'
After test driving the Discovery, Velar and Range Rover Sport I purchased the GLE 400d Premium+ on the 22” wheels. I made the right choice! Good review; keen to know your preference though.
I just click on the video... no clue who will win... but i was choosing my new car this summer and i tryed both of them... ... GLE won in almost all ways... main different is luxurious interier in GLE and SPACE... VELAR is soooo tinny car... so small so i would compare it with GLC ... GLE is much much bigger, i got 3 childern and VELAR is absolutely no able to drive with 5 passangers... GLE has plenty of space... VELAR is i piece of very beauty optic trick... on pictures look big but in reality is tinny
4:00 I recognize that button from my grandparents' old 1999 Ford Mondeo... Of course that's a place for a button you never look at but I find it a bit funny
Could be that mercifully FORD sourced the part from a British supplier who supplied it being a good workable choice for a switch fitting in that small crevice!! No problem at all.. All buttons are plastic on all vehicles for weight.. Etc
If I buy new, which I can only dream living in Serbia(only criminals and politision can buy this cars over here) I would buy Range Rover it is more stylish imo. But if you buy used one, Mercedes is better option.
Great review as ever and I like the comparison format. For me my heart says Velar, it is a fantastic looking car with superb capability if you live somewhere with snow and ice in the winter. BUT having had 2 JLR products in the past where I had 2 Discoverys. The first one had shocking reliability but a great car....I couldn’t believe the next generation would be as bad so bought another....I was wrong! I have had a look at the Velar and for a pre I’m price the plastic and fit look low rent.....I was going to say Hyundai but frankly they are better.
GLE is very conservative looking. Own a 2020 Velar R-Dynamic HSE P380 with 9000 miles and only issue so far is a oxygen sensor recently replaced under warranty. 22 inch wheels and all black and badge delete with red accents on front end and hood. MSRP was 86k bee and paid 69k with 4K miles on it over a year ago.
In my opinion the rr velar is the best looking SUV on the market right now, it’s pretty modern, it’s a SUV between the sport and the evoque, it’s so freaking beautiful
I own a 2020 Velar and I’ve loved every minute of it, and I can’t wait for the Canadian winter to try the 4 wheel drive
Allen Clark same I love mine. Won’t be trading for a while.
Allen Clark Have you had any problems with it?
Greg Barnes have you had any problems with yours
Heily - no I have had zero problems, I had that fear before I bought it because of what people say about Range Rovers. the only thing you have to get used to is the touch control screens, but once you get the hang of it it’s great

Gle looks better in amg kit. And now today the range rover /(sport) look better
I think the best car to compare the GLE with is the Range Rover SPORT! They compete in the same segment.
Yeah but price terms they’re similar
@@td2957 correct, the Sport is a different price range altogether.
No that compares with gls and x7
@@Hi-il7ht But those two are 7 seaters. You can't compare 5 seaters and 7 seaters. From consumption to driving dynamics, they will differ so wildly.

@@ramsaybolton9099 All 4 wheels were seen spinning, so how was the Merc not a 4matic?
@@LordTechPro The narrator said so….also it does not say 4matic ion the right side of the the trunk cover
@@ramsaybolton9099 Listen carefully to what he actually said at 13:50 and you will also notice that both the front and rear wheels are spinning. He just said it "doesn't have the more sophisticated 4matic system" but it's still 4matic (probably rebadged) because it is still an and car, it's just worse off road than the Velar
Our family own RR velar, Vogue, Mercedes, and BMW..I always love the onpoint drive acceleration of BMW, the infotainment of Mercedes.. but Range Rovers are always sturdier, classy and more refined..
Which one would you say has the best ride comfort. On a bad patch of road
@@mrithun15 probably the range rover because of its very complex air suspension
@@mrithun15 the GLE
Purchased the MB300d 4 matic and it’s truly amazing... nothing compares to it period. The 2 liter engine has its torque at low rpms and it is much much quicker than the specs, overtaking is quick and sweet and estatic . Mbux is mind blowing, it makes everything else look like my grandfather’s pickup truck. The interior is extremely quiet and insanely roomy and it was nice that the tire profile is higher than the previous model since it gives a nicer ride and protects the rims from being scuffed. On the downside, the 7 seater has no spare tire, and the apple CarPlay/android auto is not wireless and did not come with garage door openers or soft close doors like my 2016 Gle did. Apparently these last 2 options are not available on British models, my 2016 was American. Finally, the British model was only available in the back interior, and I feel like I’m driving a rental car. ... rental cars have black interiors, so I’ll probably have the upholstery refinished. Nevertheless, it’s an amazing machine.
Common black color classy & super practical 🤌🏻
@@countess5069 Lol, true, but hot as hell in tropical climates.
Wow great review You earned my subscription

Don’t care what you say I’d have that velar any day of the week he’s basically telling us it’s rubbish but it’s better than the merc 😏
One day you will rewatch this video and say yes i did it ! I have this car
🙏🏼
Amen 🙏🏾
🙏🏾 Amen ❤
I love the way the velar
I love GLE. But we should respect exterior design of velar. Also services for GLE would be easier
A very interesting test. I‘m a German, but I love the british stile. That‘s why I will have a Velar in 2021. (sorry for my bad english)
I just received my Velar 2020 four days ago. So far I’m happy with it, I had to choose between a Porsche Macan and Velar as my 40th birthday gift 🎁 from my husband. I chose a Velar. No regrets.
Velar is a good..and very smooth drive..silent and quiet interior...i have it ready...velar its very very good
Great video Marek!
It may depend on “which” GLE. There are 3, I think. GLE 350, GLE 450 & AMG
Looks like for you It's much more important to have space to place your 2L Coke botle next to you when drive your fency GLE, instead to realy see what a great car it's RR. By the way i drove a Evoque 5 years without any problem and now i own a RR Velar wich It's a fucking great car. 🤘
I'm merging from my Evoque to a Velar, I'm so comfortable with the size of my Evoque, that I cannot tell, can you help? Or can you share which is the most you like from your Velar? TY.
@@alonsopicharra9947 I am very pleased about Velar, although it is bigger than the Evoque you get used very quickly with its size, I have the 240hp model and it moves very well.
Full fat or it's not a range rover!
Only messing, enjoy your cars 😁
When I hear you say 'alcove' i think of the movie In Bruge. Great review. I love my Velar.
I think almost everyone loves rr velar....most of the comments below are velar lovers..❤️❤️👍👍
Pick my velar up first week in June…can’t wait.
Velar is just phenomenal
Range Rover Velar ❤️🥰😍
Land Rover because the sensor of the back door is very funny
@@jorditrevole272 The Deutsche Kampfpanzerzwagen is highly superior to the unpractical, unreliable british toy.
Yall just want the looks but the merc is much better overall, and range rovers are unreliable besides u would rather wanna get a rr sport than a velar but the merc is still better lol
Nope I love my autobiography Velar blows Mercedes away, do you have a RR
@@tramany7 have u tried the merc it has better tech it has better safety it has better performance. I think your just salty because u have an rr its ok.🤷♂️well not salty but you are just saying that "the velar blows the mercedes away" because you have one try other cars before you say there bad or your car blows it away even tho u have not tried it ,and besides the velar is not even in the league of the gle. The gle is one league above thats why its 'BETTER'
whoever designed GLE need to get fired
love the aggression with the tailgate release, great review.
However i love both of these cars but i would like to go with Range rover velar coz it's seen more eligant to their look as well as to interior .
The road presence of the velar is 🔥. Beautiful from all angles
After test driving the Discovery, Velar and Range Rover Sport I purchased the GLE 400d Premium+ on the 22” wheels.
I made the right choice!
Good review; keen to know your preference though.
I'd probably go with the GLE, but with a bigger engine, like you did.
I just click on the video... no clue who will win... but i was choosing my new car this summer and i tryed both of them... ... GLE won in almost all ways... main different is luxurious interier in GLE and SPACE... VELAR is soooo tinny car... so small so i would compare it with GLC ... GLE is much much bigger, i got 3 childern and VELAR is absolutely no able to drive with 5 passangers... GLE has plenty of space... VELAR is i piece of very beauty optic trick... on pictures look big but in reality is tinny
My parents have a velar and I love the car so much!
so rich!
@@RamMohammadJosephKaur not really
@@jeff1595 so rich your profile pic?
@@RamMohammadJosephKaur velar is a pretty standard car not for rich ppl lol
from the back, the Mercedes GLE looks like a Nissan wingroad lol,but the velar is my dream ride
4:00 I recognize that button from my grandparents' old 1999 Ford Mondeo... Of course that's a place for a button you never look at but I find it a bit funny
I also thought about old Fords the instant I saw the button.
Could be that mercifully FORD sourced the part from a British supplier who supplied it being a good workable choice for a switch fitting in that small crevice!! No problem at all.. All buttons are plastic on all vehicles for weight.. Etc
Anyway they were used up to more recently.. But no problems if they are working fine and proven tests and longevity!!
Just bought the brand new GLE.
I’m ordering a brand new 2020 Range Rover velar svr
*svautobiography*
Jakex Lazer I just bought my brand new 2020 in June you will love it and congrats it’s a beauty and drives so smooth w great features🥰😍❤️
I think both cars look good but the Mercedes looks more aggressive and imposing which I really like
Thanks Great Video
Range rover velar
Velar my baby, I am definitely coming for you!
Range Rover Velar..❤️ I love this SUV
People say land rover is has reliability issue. Well mine evoque is 4 years old and no problem .
If I buy new, which I can only dream living in Serbia(only criminals and politision can buy this cars over here) I would buy Range Rover it is more stylish imo. But if you buy used one, Mercedes is better option.
First time viewer and I subscribe .. funny review on the vellar .Thank you
No doubt Range Rover Velar🚗🚗 is best
As it contain so many things such as its design,interior, exterior and so many things
2 beautiful car, but I choose Merc 450, more confiance
Velar all the way. I mean that’s my dream car❤️❤️❤️
Great review as ever and I like the comparison format. For me my heart says Velar, it is a fantastic looking car with superb capability if you live somewhere with snow and ice in the winter. BUT having had 2 JLR products in the past where I had 2 Discoverys. The first one had shocking reliability but a great car....I couldn’t believe the next generation would be as bad so bought another....I was wrong! I have had a look at the Velar and for a pre I’m price the plastic and fit look low rent.....I was going to say Hyundai but frankly they are better.
The Velar, of course!!
GLE is very conservative looking. Own a 2020 Velar R-Dynamic HSE P380 with 9000 miles and only issue so far is a oxygen sensor recently replaced under warranty. 22 inch wheels and all black and badge delete with red accents on front end and hood. MSRP was 86k bee and paid 69k with 4K miles on it over a year ago.
I own the Velar and my wife owns the GLE best of both worlds
11:18 Once a gamer, always a gamer.
You can tell he was stoked the gesture tailgate worked for his video
Very good video. One more subscriber.
Hi i really loved your review, can you please post a review between velar vs genesis GV80
In my opinion the rr velar is the best looking SUV on the market right now, it’s pretty modern, it’s a SUV between the sport and the evoque, it’s so freaking beautiful
I’ve owned both, the Velar is the king between the two of them, the Benz I had was a complete dated dog compared to the Velar inside and out
You've already owned V167?
Dave this is the new GLE that just came out. Not the same as your old Benz
Exactly...this Benz interior is very nice. The Hey Mercedes feature is nice also.
I want the velar
I have it
Cuz you can’t afford it so don’t be salty
Jeez calm down look
You can talk to me if you have daddy issues
You didn't demolish it because it sucks (even tho it doesn't), you demolished it because you're a bad driver.
