The Range Rover Velar is a characterised by sleek exterior looks and a state-of-the-art interior. It’s a luxurious SUV that slots between the smaller Evoque and the larger Sport in Range Rover’s line-up, while its broad pricing structure means it competes with everything from a BMW X3 to an Audi Q7, as well as coupe-SUVs like the Mercedes GLE Coupe and BMW X4.

Interesting that on every review people complain about the reviewer yet still return each time.
+BB-8, Nah, we just honestly do not like his reviewing style. And by "we", I mean the majority it seems. Some people are just not likeable.
Timothy L lol Timbo you hit the nail on the head again with your insight.....your just not likeable Tim Tim
It is called love-hate relationship. They can't do without him
Enjoyed the review as usual James, ignore the haters, its a sad state of affairs when you get such abuse for a voice or seating position in a car
This guy gets too much hate. Granted he's not as good as Matt was, but we don't need to go on a witch hunt.
Oscar Davies j
Yeah but he said ‘cream of the range
Actually I think they are both excellent, but just have different styles (the presenters!).
Have to admit , when he first started talking I thought "Oh Hell No " . However , Glad i didnt click out as this turned out to be a great review , well done .
John jsmit 😂😂😂
I have to admit i didnt like James at the start when he done his Ford Mustang review but now i have learned to like him in fact i would say he is one of the best car reviewers out there!
VX 471 not as good as Matt though
1 in 5 customers report a fault on their cars, thats bad
😂😂
And he followed that section up with "there is one big negative thing about the Velar" ... uhh, no, that would be two big negatives. Price, and reliability.
My wife has a 2017 Evoque , been back in to service department 5 times since purchase , lots of different problems , selling it soon
Tasos Stavrou YOU are looking at the wrong way, 4 out of 5 owners have no issues or report faults, now thats impressive
Dave Knowsitallandseesitall I hope you are joking
A straight forward, very short, clear, simple and no nonsense presentation. Really really awesome. Keep it up. Tq bro...
I can't understand the hate - I love James' reviews. Keep it up! That Velar is stunning, but they played games with the pricing, making them too expensive in a desirable spec.
So many unnecessary comments about the presenter. Credit to James for putting up with/ignoring such foul and personal comments. He's a better man than any of them could hope to be. Funny how so many of them can't seem to stay away from him...
October cannot come soon enough for mat to review this unique range rover
One of most informative, better edited Velar reviews. Nice reviewer too, very engaging
Saw one today in the supermarket (as a showcase car). Looks so good. Seemed a lot smaller, than I thought it will be.
Why do companies give such a huge boot and compromise on the space for the rear seats? I just don't get it .
Great review!
great review
Good car reviewer, left of field presentation which I find refreshing.
carwow > carbuyer
I have to admit despite its few shortcomings it's the best looking Range Rover I've seen yet!
Great review of an awesome car
Great review
I never knew door handles in a car were such a problem. Thanks Land Rover for solving a problem that never existed
I don’t know why everyone complains about the reviewer he is good. He may not be the same as Matt but that’s good. They both provide different types of reviews
Great looking car, probably out of my price range though. Good review.
Such a beautiful car
Can you make a head to head between the velar and the Jag f pace pls?
This is a brilliant review,what is everyone on about?
Don't judge the presenter, judge the review itself. In my mind, the review provided all the necessary information for a potential buyer to make an informative decision. However, I did notice the reviewer did seem to cross the white lines a few times, whilst driving - maybe different rules in the U.K. compared to Australia?
Kelly Conway You are only not allowed to cross the line if it's a continuous one with no breaks (usually on wider, faster ones where there are hazards, to stop people overtaking). He's only on small country roads, where he can see well ahead, and the centre line has breaks in it.
Kelly Conway
Never mind the presenter the car is absolutely pointless,
That's exactly what's pissing me off.
Great review, I think if the Range Rover Sport facelift borrows some of the elements of the Velar then that could be a great proposition. I sat in the back of the Velar and I think it's too small to be a good family car.
Car buyer please do a review on land rover autobiography!!!Thank you
The roof lining can be whatever colour you choose and you could have a massive clear glass roof if you choose.
Nice review as always yet one small niggle: in my view even the base car is well equipped as you pointed out at the beginning.
I got uncomfortable when he said Big Daddy
😂😂😂
The car looks amazing
Can't wait to see carwow's review on that! I came here because I really wanted to know more about the Velar. C'mon Mat, get this car!
Why does everyone hate the dude?
Kamo Mhlari He's not Mat. We only like Mat
Kamo Mhlari because he's gay look how he sits
Mxseria bitch if i say his name is Matt it's fucking Matt and for that now your fucking name is Bill...good looking out though Bill 👍thanks for the correction
@Master Roshi - You hate someone because they're gay?
tjf4375 it's wrong to hate I just criticise
nice reivew
One thing is sure. It will be as reliable as the weather..
Can I line it up next to a sport to compare the sizes to give us a better idea
Presenter is not a tall person, on the contrary, and likes to sit quite close to the wheel and when he sat behind himself, it was not very spacious. How did they manage to have so little space in the back seats?
I can't even find any hate comments, just people taking about people leaving hate comments lol looks like they've been weeded out... But that's what you want though. Good review!
My parents are getting one on Friday!!
how is it?
I'd say this is a better buy than the F pace.
Personally, it feels more luxurious, and arguably even looks better. As a daily driver, this seems like such an attractive car, even though it is quite expensive!
@4:25 there is one bad thing about the boot. There is a step down from the boot floor on to the back seats, which means pushing items forward is a little bit harder.... mmm well you really showed how hard it could be to push the bag in!!!!! In contrary this position makes it a bit more difficult to pull out items from the boot
Great review James, but not my kind of vehicle.
Great review 🐨 Sounds like the Full size Range Rover is a much better buy.
Mostly complaints from a car owner is sometimes a reflection of them being not a good owner or can't be able to maintain a car right. Cars are sensitive no matter how expensive or a mass produced one will have a problem if no one knows how to take care of them. I quiet love this, in fact, all the Range Rover lineup especially the full size but I can't wait for the next Defender hoping to have the steel chassis still.
Great car looks stunning and why so much hate on land rover yes it's Indian owned but the design and development and manufacturing is all done in the UK and keeping alot of people in work not just JLR but the supply network to alot of people forgot this is still a British designed car made in Britain oh and for those complaining about lack of defender new one out in 2019
The top screen tilts forward when ignition is switched on - judging by the marginal slim angle of the tilt, why was it not made with the correct angle in a fixed position in the 1st place? Adding extra motor for this tilt action just means more things to go wrong and expensive to repair, considering the 3rd from bottom manufacturers position for developing faults in the JD Power results, and the various comments in the owners' forum.
1 touch screen is bad enough by now 2....expect a lot more crashes involving Velar drivers from having to look down from the road.
Engine choices are lavish: 4-cylinder D180 and D240 diesels,a 3-litre V6 D300,4 cylinders P250 and P300 petrols, and of course a 3litre supercharged V6 petrol P380 monk!
Cooool review 🤗🤗🤗🤗
It isn’t the remote for the infotainment system, it’s for the rear seat entertainment
my dream car 4 always
It's a F-pace with another badge!
Just sat in one yesterday. I am 6 foot and the rear seating, at 75,000 dollars for a near 190 inch car, was the most disappointing experience I can remember. Executed nicely and a lovely car, I can't see why this is nearly 10 inches longer than a Disco Sport and actually has less leg room and feels tighter all over, except the boot, but who is sitting in there?.
Who designed those rear charging points hidden inside the armrest drop down? Daft place to put them - totally unusable if you have somebody sitting in the middle or do not want or cannot put the armrest down for some reason!
Would still have a VW Touareg over this. Nicely understated, great to waft about in and about £30k less in fully loaded guise.
I was expecting something better. I was kinda disappointed when he showed the interior wasn't the same quality as the Large Range Rover. Not that it makes a bad car, or even close. But I was under the impression this car would be in a upper scale. Same as the Range Rover. Nice review and a beautiful car, though.
Who is your wardrobe manager? Smurfs.....
Is there a velar hybrid ?
honestly, i do miss mat. however this batchelor bloke does a pretty decent job at this car reviewing thing
Why doesn't anyone ever review the Velar without the r dynamic design
Boot has a step down when seats are folded down because it has a full size spare. If (like most) select to have a normal spare or none at all, the step disappears. Looking forward to the carwow review....
Interesting. I seem to be one of the four out of five RR owners who have never had anything go wrong with my car, and I've had three of one sort or another.
Huge ass land rover with a 4 cylinder? Really? What the actual fuck
Ultra kewl
What is the exterior color?, Is it Byron Blue?
Navy blue leather, oh my god it reminds me of the 2002 Range Rover L322's. Looks okay when its new but give it a couple years and it will look disgusting and will cause bad resale values
With around 40K you sure are getting a beautiful car. I don't know what people are complaining for? It's a great car
i feel so sorry for you James do not worry pay no attention to what the rude comments say
What color is this.
A large SUV ?? You must be kidding it's tiny inside ... and just wait till it breaks! which it will . Appalling value . Good video 😊
No sunroof?
So its illegal to use your phone while driving but now cars come with two touch screens hmmm
Like to see how all that tech holds up in 10 or 20 years! or even shorter given how short the life of smartphones are!
He looks like Mika lmfao
This still looks SO CLOSE to the RR SPORT that it really isn't even worth purchasing this for significantly more.
But is it for Straight men too ??
No bag of crisps test? Blasphemy!
But you think this is expensive in the UK? Where I live it STARTS at 80 thousand pounds, and the range topper goes way past 120 thousand pounds.
Hello Sailor!! 😉😉
So the rear seats can't slide rearward?! What a disappointment!
I went for a test drive with my dad in this, and the back seats are extremely clastrophobic
Which do you think is better looking: the Range Rover Velar or a Jaguar F-Pace?
F pace
Josh Bacon F-pace
Car buyer used to have more subscribers than carwow, seen as though it’s been around for a lot longer, then Matt went to carwow and started reviewing and everyone has gone to carwow. I personally prefer carwow’s reviewing style and it seems more bubbly and there’s always an Easter egg in carwow videos, that’s what this channel lacks.
nice looking car but if you take into consideration the maintenance costs, deprecciation, the cost of fuel, the Tesla Model S is a better car. Owning a Model X is cheaper over 3 year period.
Damn, thought this was carwow
Fix that reliability rating land rover, for that asking price is too large for a level car to have short run problems
All that tech inside would worry me in a JLR product...lovely looking car but rapidly becoming the "pre 2015 Peugeot"of electronics reliability world...
Why not test a pink Fiat 500 James?
Car buyer vs car wow
84K? yep I think I'd get a Lexus GX/Toyota Prado
After Mat left, I think we all unsubscribed.
They still think its British😂😂😂😂
Wow
Think I will wait for the electric version, and a lottery win.
That dark blue interior is horrendous
Well isn't it kinda stupid that the F Pace and Velar have a 180hp and 240hp diesel... the 180 is rather slow but the 240 is (of course) quite expensive.. a 200hp one would be perfect
It s the only range rover that looks good
Mmm i don't know about the style... still prefer the evoque.
I thought this was carwow....
I liked the car. The guy talking, not so much.
