For more information about the Velar's fuel economy, visit the EPA's website.
In our 75-mph highway fuel economy test, the four-cylinder Velar delivered just 26 mpg. The EPA has rated the Velar's inline-six engine as high as 20 mpg city and 26 mpg highway, but the turbocharged four-cylinder is slightly more efficient, with ratings of 21 mpg city and 27 mpg highway.
2021 LAND ROVER RANGE ROVER VELAR P340 S DRIVER
Richard Prescott | Car and Driver Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG Models equipped with the available air suspension can raise and lower their ride height for either more dynamic moves on-road or greater dexterity off it. The suspension competently controls the SUV's body motions and keeps body roll in check while returning a firm, well-managed ride. Much like the Velar's acceleration, its handling is by no means sporty. The turbocharged-and-supercharged 3.0-liter inline-six will undoubtedly provide better acceleration performance, but we haven't yet tested this new powertrain, which is offered in both 335- or 395-hp flavors. We sampled a four-cylinder Velar for a 40,000-mile long-term test, and that model required 7.4 seconds to hit 60 mph.
The base engine is a 247-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that is well behaved enough but struggles to move the Velar's substantial heft. We'd also suggest adding the Dynamic Handling package, which includes an adjustable suspension system, a drive-mode selector, and All Terrain Progress Control, which acts as a sort of adaptive cruise control for low speeds or in slippery conditions. We'd recommend going with the P250 R-Dynamic S, which adds 19-inch wheels, a dual exhaust with polished finishers, a blacked-out grille, and leather-and-suede interior upholstery.
