While the diesel engine which is a 2.0-litre unit develops 179hp at 4,000 rpm and transmits 430 Nm of torque at 1,750-2,500 rpm to all the four wheels via a mated 8-speed torque converter automatic gearbox. The gearbox and FWD System is common fitment on both the powertrains.
The Land Rover which has announced the elimination of all other Velar variants is taking bookings for the India-made Velar. While the deliveries against bookings will be given in early May 2019. In its segment, the Range Rover Velar range seeks competition with the likes of other luxury SUVs such as the BMW X6, the Jaguar F-Pace and the Mercedes GLE Coupe.
