Land Rover Velar D180

The 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Velar represents a significant evolution from its predecessors, combining avant-garde design with enhanced technological integration. Unlike previous Range Rover models, the Velar introduced revolutionary flush-mounted door handles that deploy automatically, improving aerodynamics while maintaining the brand's signature rugged elegance. The interior marks a radical departure with its minimalist 'InControl Touch Pro Duo' dual-screen interface, replacing traditional physical controls with haptic feedback surfaces - a first for the marque. Compared to earlier model...s, the 2018 Velar features a 23% stiffer chassis structure and 15% improved torsional rigidity through advanced aluminum monocoque construction. The updated 2.0L Ingenium diesel engine delivers 178 PS (+12% over previous 2.0L units) paired with a refined ZF 8-speed automatic transmission, achieving 17.3 km/L combined efficiency. New Terrain Response 2 system introduces an Auto mode that automatically selects between six driving programs, a significant upgrade from the manual selection in previous generations. The Matrix LED headlights with adaptive beam technology provide 300m illumination range, doubling the effectiveness of older halogen systems. Cabin air ionization now includes nanoe™ technology to neutralize odors and allergens - a feature absent in pre-2017 models. The 2018 Velar's 632L cargo capacity represents a 22% improvement over previous midsize Range Rover variants, while maintaining a 213mm ground clearance for serious off-road capability. Contemporary safety systems like Driver Condition Monitor and Lane Keep Assist were newly integrated, building upon Range Rover's legacy of protective innovation.show more
