The black paint job and black rims give this car a stealthy look and looks clean and classy
I had a Range Rover sport SVR. By far one of the best vehicles I’ve owned. Sad I traded it in
@@gerardc5457 damn why?
@@mattmekhaeil why did I trade it in or why am I sad I traded it in?, LOL
@@mattmekhaeil The reason for trading in was I was intent on getting a Bentyga. It’s great but it’s a gas guzzler and definitely loses the practicality of the Range Rover
@@gerardc5457 was it reliable? Also what year
Can I afford it? Absolutely not, but Joe has me sold on it before I even start the video cuz Raiti's Rides is just that good
Lol same
90k for a georgous car with terrible reliability. Like ridiculously unreliable. But it sure does look good in all black.
Nice machine

With a car note
Some people claim that they've had no issues with theirs, and they're lucky. There's a reason they rank so low in reliability. Beautiful vehicles, but I wouldn't even buy one at a a great deal. Reliability should be part of any luxury package.
This is the channel every car enthusiast needs to subscribe to.
That is so awesome of you to say David! I try to bring it all to you!
not Doug?
No way is this thing worth 90K, unless you’re referring to how many trips it will make to the Land Rover service bay.
A Hyundai customer
@@jasjotdhanjal5537 lmao honestly
Although this car isn't perfect, my wife loves hers. Black on black on black just like the one you are reviewing but with a black interior too. You gave a zonk because you wished the second cup holder would have a cover. You can actually slide both armrests forward and it will cover the cupholder.
Perfection can be subjective, however, can you say why it isn’t perfect for you and your spouse?
I bought a gloss black cover for that cup holder area on my Velar in the UK and it finishes that area off nicely, without pulling the armrests forward.
£28.95 with a black velvet bag to stow it in if needed, worth every penny.👌
@@Delitewon the reliability isn't the greatest overall. The Velar tends to have the fans at maximum speed eventhough it isn't hot. You can hear the car from around the corner. That is how loud it gets. It is a known issue so the dealership "fixed it" with an update. The fix is known to last only several months and the permanent solution is to replace the water pump. At times, the entertainment screen is blank and it doesn't turn on until I restart the vehicle. Other than that, it is flawless lol. Those issues does not deter us from enjoying the vehicle and it is simply a beauty.

Thanks for sharing that with me. I am contemplating purchasing a Sport HSE package, but my son-in-law, who is a car dealer is talking me out of it. He said they are plagued with multiple problems. I decided to check and it appears like every year there’s some problem with the Range Rovers.
I like it’s stylish appearance. The price tag is a tad of a deterrent for me, however, the biggest breaker for me is it’s reliability.
Hey love your videos, but when you say the price can you also say the base price. I feel like people think a car could be out of their range even if it isn’t. For example, the car in the video was 90k but I think starts around 55k
Would be nice when youtubers review a car, they also talk about its reliability and its previous year models' issues and not just glorious facts about this brand new ride.
My buddy got one and says once the 1st problems starts its such a headahe afterwards
They are great looking automobiles. The problem is they are last on the reliability list, year after year after year. TFL went through 2 brand new ones before they got one that runs. Now the third one they have keeps throwing a check engine light. These are brand new vehicles.
Bought a 2020 Velar R-Dynamic HSE P380. 380 HP and 0-60 in 4.9 to 5.0 seconds. MSRP was 87K and paid 69K with 4200 miles lease return 8 months old at the time. Owned it for 1 year and not one issue. Mine is same black color and same 22 inch wheels but mine has red vents on hood, red front end vents and red on tailgate and badge delete meaning no green Land Rover or velar badging. Very unique and all black leather inside. Was worried regarding reliability but so far been excellent. Feel like I got a good deal on it. Have 2.5 years left on warranty.
That’s not what happened with TFL. There was a part needed for the first one and they offered TFL and upgraded alternative. The second vehicle was damaged by the workshop before the delivery and then they handed over the 3rd vehicle.
None of their vehicles have broken down. People mistakenly think that LR products have mechanical problems. The issues are usually with electrical gremlins - the same as TFL. But they haven’t been left stranded somewhere.
Got one for 5 years never have an issue
Raiti always appreciates the large metal paddles on Land Rovers and Jaguars
The arm rests in the middle slide forward to cover up the cup holder. I love my Velar.
I was on The Land Rover lot yesterday...looking at this Velar. The one I was looking at was a 2021 gray with the black rims. Nice, $54,800 I thought was a good price!!!!
Joe I am now one year watching your videos❤❤❤
Raiti you get my day going im all hyped up now 'ON THROTTLE LETSS GOOO'
ON THE BRAKES
Very unique compared to the rivals, so sophisticated looking. Pretty powerful with this engine too. Nice review!
Mate I think US people were not aware that JLR is not British owned company anymore. Its now owned by an Indian Motor firm Tata Group. Please correct your statements in your line up vidoes of JLR models
i am not a big fan of Range Rover, but if you want that bit of mafia or gangster feel in your life - just get one in full black. you get extra style points if you convince your family and friends to do the same. when you cruise along in a formation, you are no longer bound to traffic rules since nobody will dare to stop you :D
It seems almost criminal that JLR has both the F-Pace and the Velar. Best looking SUVs ever.
They are very James Bond approved for sure.
Agreed! I'm having a hard time choosing between the two on which to get.
This channel is the best entertainment, even if you're not looking to buy a car. I'm always hungry afterward tho.
I have the 2018 one and everyone love it when I drive it.
Was it the wolves commercial what got you buying it ? I loved that commercial man. I don't have this one but the Discovery, and even this Discovery I'm 100% loving it
@@Notmanypeople The wife and I loved the vehicle, but after experiencing chronic battery issues with it. We sold it and went and got the 2022 Acura MDX Type S. The Range Rover was still under warranty... didn't even make it to 50k but it had an issue with the battery Range Rover couldn't diagnose.
Altho I can’t afford to buy, but I love watching the reviews and there is no one else who I trust more than you for these reviews. Thank you for your work.
Way better than Doug.
Black on black 📈🔥
Reference the centre cupholder, the arm rests can move forward to cover them when not in use. Just lift the latch as if you wanted to access the cubby, but pull forward instead of lift.
Exactly

Man, that's a sweet velar.. All black
OMG…..am I seeing BLACK lug nuts? Someone has common sense with the murdered-out look! And you tucked the rear wiper… very nice! Thank you Land Rover!
Always loved Range Rover. They do everything right except the reliability. Hahaha.
Brits sure know how to design *good looking* cars. But when it comes to the important mechanical part of the build, they just fail hard! 😏
@@donkedic1 7 year warranty
@@donkedic1 it’s not mechanical unreliability. Engines and gearboxes are fine. It’s the electric systems that cause the problems.
Which is why I'd just lease this or buy a Lexus.
@@AbdullahHood thanks for the correction. So instead of worrying about an engine fire, Land Rovers are at risk for electrical fires.
That’s their saving grace right there…
My second dream SUV! Great review Joe.
Love your videos
I don’t think I’ve heard of a single satisfied owner of one of these. Every time you run across an owner online, they regret purchasing this thing because it is in the shop more than it is at home. Same with other Land Rover products.
Bought a 2020 Velar R-Dynamic HSE P380. 380 HP and 0-60 in 4.9 to 5.0 seconds. MSRP was 87K and paid 69K with 4200 miles lease return 8 months old at the time. Owned it for 1 year and not one issue.

I bought an Evoque back in 2016 as a company car. It's a diesel and now it has 170'500km on the clock, which is close to 110'000 miles. The turbo died at 95k miles or at least a part of it idk. Fixed it in 3 days and obviously I didn't have to pay anything. Absolute solid car still goes like new, never left me on the road.
After first year issues I used to say that my 2016 RR was reliable and I was very satisfied. That feeling disappeared quickly as the engine died on the freeway and 3 weeks later its still at the dealer service dept. Repair total way over $10,000. Miles under the warranty but it aged out of the warranty. I ignored warnings from friends before purchasing.
@@bs5064 was it a petrol with a V6 or V8
@@v12-s65 I'm in the US. Its a Diesel V6
Really enjoy your reviews; very informative. Your reviews are to my point and blunt. No sugar-coating. My wife and I laugh whenever you use food analogies for compartment spaces. You and I are connoisseurs of junk food. I love my twinkies.
The issue with RR is the distribution of its parts network (its lack thereof, should I say). You have to wait for parts to arrive from England - even the radiator hose pipe.
Best as a Lease special only. After lease is up - run away
how much would a lease be in this price range?
I wish it had long-term reliability that was anywhere near as good as it looks. Imo, it's the most attractive SUV on the road. That and the cost is outrageous.
You know it’s a Brit-made money pit. 😆
Just lease it bro, who buy luxury cars , after 3 years you take it back.
@@kromahj
Unfortunately, as the father of 3, I am not in the financial position to keep making lease payments for the rest of my life. Plus, we drive way too much. In a little over a year, we have put 30K miles on a 2020 Palisade, mostly due to travel sports. Trouble free I might add. My wife and I pay one vehicle off, before we purchase another. If our situation was different, maybe I would jump on board the leasing train. It does seem like you get a lot more for your money when leasing.
@@wbwayne8887 you , like me , I don't look at those cars , cuz I have family . Thank God, we get something like highlander, telluride, pilot etc, they even have more tech then this
@@kromahj
Fortunately, all those good reliable mainstream choices are available in the market. However in 2021, even those vehicles aren't as obtainable as they once were. The market is quite insane these days.
Thanks again for another cool and thorough vehcile breakdown.
"iPhone 47 triple platinum Gold Edition" Where can I get this? lol
Joe. You hate gloss black. That entire vehicle is gloss black. Lol.
LMAO! Good point!
What’s up Joe! I think 90% of the cars in Greenwich are Range Rovers. I’m at the point where I don’t even think they’re cool anymore😂
Greenwich, CT?
Greenwich mechanics must be rollin with all the land rovers they constantly fix 🤣
“1 12 inch sub…iPhone 47…hahahaha! Your videos are the best.
Thanks for letting me share the laughs and the cars with you!
Love how Black it is. Because I love cars Black.
Love your channel Joe…You are the hardest working man in the car review biz! Would love to see you do a BTS video at some point!
Facts! 💯
@@ernestsysbm1175 ??
I fell in love with this Velar.
I had a feeling you would Omar!
@@RaitisRides same I remember it came out more than 3 years ago and I immediately loved it
I was literally watching your 2020 Range Rover velar review.
Perfect timing 😂
Lovely presentation. I wish the paint was matte, it’d look really great
Am i the only one that notices Joe says turn singles and not sure signals? Lol
I want that car my dream car in full black . It is so cool at night when lights are ob
Anybody else's hands start sweating when they see Joe Raiti go full-throttle in traffic with someone else's $90k car?
No, because I’m not weak.
No, because I’m not weak.
Just saw one parking in front of my house today. Thanks for the review
These are really good in a city, the Sport & Vogue can be a bit too big in London. With Range Rover, it's hard to get it across in reviews but i's the way it makes you feel inside, you feel like you're the Lord of the Manor. That feeling is priceless, you can't get across that in facts and figures, it's how it makes you feel...

Joe I love that Velar. the black on black is the best. I like the tucked in rear wiper and that beautiful touch screen!
Looks soooooooo sinister and sporty!!! I got my phone 📱 fixed so glad to be back to the family 👪 🙌 🤗
It looks like you should be able to maneuver the charging cable around the middle seat to charge your phone but, I don't understand why some car manufacturers do that. They don't seem to take into account that three people might sit in the back row.
Torque: 550Nm
Weight: 2013kg
Top speed: 250kmh
Fuel consumptions: 12.5l/100km in city, 9.43l/100km on highway
Boot space: 557l with seats up, 1981l with seats down
This is gonna be a awesome Raiti review ! 😀
I am so glad that you think so!
I really enjoy your videos and I can tell you really enjoy presenting them. I have to ask do you ever miss your old job?
Love it. Looks great.
The interior with the tan colour looks 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Lori. 👍

Range Rovers are the most beautiful SUV's on the planet.... reliability speaking, they are piles of overpriced shti.
That said, if I had the money... I'd own one. B-D

I watch your videos all the time, but yesterday my girlfriend joined me for the first time. She cracked up at the first time you said “ZONK” LOL
I was Mercedes cls 2021, but I might change my mind now...hmm...great video...bless....
I’m here for the Twinkie fitment
Thank you so much I comment on one of your videos for you to do this car and you do it 🥰❤😊😊
first! love to see the range rovers!
Love the videos joe i think it’d be cool if u added a rating at the end to so we can compare between rides when deciding
Not Doug Demuro
Hoooooooooly moooooly!!! Black on black on black!!! Bro I want this one. It looks soooooo siiiiick!!! Massive thanks and shout out to you and Lori, Joe for bringing us these epic rides!!! #RaitisRides #OnThrottle #LandRover #RangeRover #Velar

I love it my boy Joe keep up the work and I love the video lot real true 💯👍and funny 😄good 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯A+
The snacks on Raiti's Rides are always good, so are the car reviews
Nice review keep up the good work
beautiful but sadly you will be visiting the mechanic more that your friend if you get one of these
My favorite car but i love the red and black 🌹🌹
6:52 As cars count as "technology" I like them, why?, I'm a techie. So I. Am. Furious. This has been my soulmate all along and now you tell me? Now!? Pinnacle of sound, lightning McQueen of the forest, lawn mower of Mount Everest, you get it already...
The GV70 is a great alternative to this range, especially if you are not much for status symbol vehicles.
....and your standard for "quality" isn't much of a standard at all. Really?? A Hyundai??? WTF???
@@trevorsutherland5263 I worked with mechanics in manhattan for years that service these high end cars and they will tell you, they live in the shop. Go look at consumer reports and see which brand as the highest "quality". Like i said, these over priced luxury cars are status vehicles. A damn kia will last longer.
@@Icetillidie well if you don’t have Money then don’t buy.
@@jasjotdhanjal5537 its not about having money, its choice, some have the money, but we choose quality over status.
Joe that Color is just flawless
My dream car is the Range Rover Carbon Edition. This Velar is a very close 2nd place. Great job Lori!
Thanks Joe and Lori.
I would like to see a V6 twin turbo in the land Rover
All black , black rims , dark tint 😮💨 can make any car look good
Nice Joe! Can you review a Discovery please?
I will get that together for you Danny.
I love watching your videos! You are very specific
Like this guy ✅🏆🏆🏆🎥.. excellent Reviews ALWAYS. Lots of character😅
Great in depth review. I really liked it & was considering it before I got the SQ5 & now E Tron.
@sparsh mudgil Not really, the Q8/SQ8 are bigger & have the sport back. The Velar is more of a traditional SUV shape & their compact SUV. It goes up against the Q5/SQ5 in the Audi lineup. The Q7/Q8 is somewhere akin to the RR Sport & RR model.
@sparsh mudgil No, it's not.
Range Rover Velar : Overall Length = 188.9", Wheelbase = 113.1". More importantly Rear Headroom = 38," Rear legroom = 37.2"
Audi Q8 : Overall Length = 196.6", Wheelbase = 117.9". Rear Headroom = 38.1", Rear Legroom = 40.2"
@sparsh mudgil That's their sub compact. The Audi Q3 = RR EVOQ. The Q5/SQ5 = Velar, RR Sport is similar in size for the occupants for the Q8/SQ8 & the RR = Q7/SQ7.
Great review thanks lori/but wouldn’t a murdered out version have all black interior??
Joe lots of tucking in on this rig. Great Review.
Lol sounds like my vacuum cleaner..when you Rev it
@@RaitisRides kinda expensive..but I figured that..my nephew plans on buy a range rover next year sometime he's not sure which model he wants I told him go for it..I showed him a tricked out model with the thw back seat area all motorized damn thing had flip up panels and recliner seats and lights and remote controls..God knows how much it costs but it was like the very top end model that you would transport foreign dignitaries in.
Did this man just say "iPhone 47?" 😂 Wow!
Land Rover loves them 12 v outlets. In the front, the 12 v should be under the cover, every vehicle has the front cup holders side by side, having that 12 v looks out of place.
The center console does cover the cup holders you just have to push the arm wrests forward (fyi) because you zonk this in the video but likely didn’t know about this feature.
Thanks for sharing that insight!
I personally wouldn’t care if the back of the seat is plastic, imagine it leather than having kids, gonna see a nasty opening meanwhile plastic is more durable and easy to clean. That what I think it was made that way and my preference. Everyone has a different taste.
I wouldn’t zonk that tbh
Great review man
You guys always post great content! Idea for a tee shirt, pic of Joe's head saying "to the door panels" just a thought 😉
Or a finger pointing to the right.
Serve me up peanut butter color seats any time
@@RaitisRides Sandwiched inside an all black exterior... just gorgeous.
