KUALA LUMPUR, September 19, 2023 – Truly reflective of modern luxury, the New Range Rover Velar makes its grand debut with its exceptional design, advanced technology and unparalleled driving experience. This luxurious L560 Range Rover Velar sports utility vehicle (SUV) represents the pinnacle of avant garde sophistication.

Intriguing Design: Timeless Craftsmanship
The Range Rover Velar pioneers the brand's reductive design philosophy, achieving a harmonious balance of elegance and presence. Its commanding proportions, with a fresh design for the radiator grille, head lamps and tail lamps creating a bolder and more contemporary look. The super-slim Pixel LED Headlights with jewel-like Signature Daytime Running Lights, create an arresting visual statement is available on the L Spec. At the rear, the 3D LED taillights add a touch of sophistication, perfectly complemented by the powerful overhang and new lower rear bumper design. There are also two new stylish exterior colours, Metallic Varesine Blue and Premium Metallic Zadar Grey.

Seamless Integration: Intuitive Ingenuity
The cabin of the Range Rover Velar embodies seamless integration of technology and craftsmanship. The next-gen Pivi Pro infotainment system takes center stage with its 11.4-inch curved glass touchscreen, providing effortless control over various vehicle functions. The system's interface and voice AI work in harmony, reducing distractions and ensuring an intuitive user experience. Wireless smartphone connectivity, over-the-air updates, and dedicated Wireless Device Charging space further elevate the convenience and connectivity offered by this luxury SUV, while the Wireless software SOTA allows for software updates without a physical connection and no need to visit a retailer.


Connected Technology: An Immersive Escape
Traveling in the Range Rover Velar is a serene escape, thanks to pioneering Active Road Noise Cancellation technology. The advanced system calculates an audio signal to replay over the MeridianTM speakers to reduce the decibel level inside the car. Active Road Noise Cancellation technology ensures the New Range Rover Velar offers the quietest cabin in its class for road noise. It also aims to help reduce fatigue levels when driving, as exposure to low-frequency noise for extended periods of time can have this effect.

Controls for the climate, seating and audio volume are always visible at each side of the screen via new sidebars, featuring multi-functional sliding controls on either side. These virtual buttons are always visible and provide immediate access to frequently used items, including individual temperature controls for the front occupants, audio volume and Terrain Response® modes.

Contemporary Luxury: A Haven of Serenity
The cabin is a sanctuary of comfort, designed to promote relaxation and wellbeing. The Cabin Air Purification Plus system provides superior air quality, while configurable cabin lighting offers 30 interior colours, allowing occupants to set the perfect ambiance. All these are available in L Specs. Apart from this, two new design wheels available in 22" in Style 1075 offer a ten-spoke gloss dark grey with contrast diamond turned finish on the H Spec and L Spec variants or in gloss black, while 20" in Style 1089 presents of ten-spoke gloss black on the M Spec.

Adaptive Dynamics is standard on the H Spec and L Spec models, ensures suspension stiffness is optimised for the driving conditions, improving ride comfort and handling. There’s even a specific calibration for off-road driving. Advanced chassis and suspensions, including Electronic Air Suspension, Adaptive Dynamics and Configurable Dynamics, deliver exceptional performance and agility on-road.

Technology Pack – a Head-up Display shows key driving information directly in the driver’s view, while the 3D Surround Camera system and Park Assist make light work of low-speed manoeuvres. Wade Sensing assists when driving through deep water.
