Before that however, let us explain what the Velar is. Our editor Sean Nurse attended the local media launch of this rather breathtaking vehicle in the Western Cape earlier last week, and had the following to say.
“There’s no two ways about it, the Velar looks fantastic and despite the fact that Land Rover’s designers claim it was designed from the ground- up, it most certainly resembles its bigger sibling, the Range Rover Sport.”
It really does look eye catching, no wonder Land Rover Bedfordview hosted a special event for the car. Customers could and still can go for test drives and view the vehicle at the showroom.
On Friday the 20th of October, famed radio DJ Sasha Martinengo broadcasted his breakfast show on Joburg’s Hot 91.9 from the dealership. He also took the car for a test drive.
Again, we consulted with Sean to find out what the Velar is like to drive. “Firstly the car has a wide range of engine options available in both turbodiesel and turbocharged petrol offerings. On the road, the car exudes a sporty yet comfortable character.”
“As this is still a Range Rover, it needs to perform when the going gets tough. Thankfully it is fitted with the brands impressive all-wheel drive system with 213mm of ground clearance (optional air suspension provides up to 251mm), the terrain Response 2 and all terrain Progress Control systems, and you have a car that is pretty capable off-road”.
The Velar is a great looking vehicle that has been filled with luxury and technology. It is also available in a host of various trim levels, engine derivatives and features an impressive options list.
We suggest that you contact Land Rover Bedfordview today or go and see them, and the new Velar. Their knowledgeable sales team will be able to assist you with any questions as well as explain the various finance options available to you.
