    With this update, the Range Rover Velar now commands a premium of around Rs 4.59 lakh than before. The reintroduction of a diesel option to the Velar sets you back by Rs 84,000 more than its petrol-powered counterpart.

    For starters, the updated Velar features the latest Pivi Pro Infotainment setup, whose two 10-inch touchscreens control the main infotainment, seating and climate control functions. It also features artificial intelligence, a new navigation system with real-time traffic information and OTA updates. Other additions include active road noise cancellation, a 3D surround camera, cabin air ionisation with a PM2.5 filter, and an electronic air suspension setup.

    It continues to retain bits such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, a 12-speaker Meridian sound system, 14-way powered front seats with memory function, a 12.3-inch digital driver’s display, as well as four-zone climate control. As before, the R-Dynamic S trim features burnished copper around the bumpers, bonnet vents and side vents.

    Powering the Velar are a pair of Ingenium 2.0-litre petrol and diesel engines that are specced to an 8-speed automatic transmission. The former makes 250PS and 365Nm, whereas the latter delivers 204PS and 430Nm. Other performance wizardry comes from an all-wheel drivetrain, and Terrain Response 2 which offers up to six off-road driving modes.
