    One of the best vehicles I’ve ever had. Bought new from showroom & sold my RR Sport HSE. Had nearly 3 year’s now! She’s beautiful & I’m reaching nearly 64………..so ladies buy one & drive it, she’s gorgeous though I suggest dark interior my RR Sport was black & cream interior & I was always careful.

    Yeah, cause that control console TOTALLY won't be distracting drivers as they try to adjust something as simple as the fan. That's the problem with touchscreens. You have to actively look to see where you're pushing, as opposed to just being able to tell by touch what the dial does, or count how many buttons over it is. The best control console is the one you don't have to take your eyes off the road to use.

    I said almost the same thing about the $65000. Colorado to another reviewer, calling it virtually making it "Mall" rated, and got publicly ridiculed by the reviewer, so I will hold my opinion but I do think it comes down to a matter of "will" you instead of "can" it go off road. Thanks Roman. I seems like it certainly can go off road..

    A little consistency on your part would be nice. You lambasted the Honda Pilot, a vehicle that cost half as much and will see about as much off-road as the Velar, but had push button transmission which you went out of your way to say it was a bad idea, yet no mention of it on the Velar! Love your channel, but be a little more consistent with your opinion and reviews please.

    "Smart" technology depreciates faster than a vehicle does. So when you throw all of that smart tech into a vehicle, leasing would be the best option, but leasing in itself is a terrible idea. So.... unless you're stupid wealthy and this is your dream car, I don't see a reason for it to be purchased.

Tiny hard to read odd icons. Way too much gloss black. Rotary shift knob that is motorized and rises when the start is pressed. What happens when this fails - you couldn’t drive the car. Technology gone wild ...and stupid !, Disappointing since I loved the exterior styling and seats. Never did get interior light to come on when doors opened.

      its the same as an I phone where the technology will be dated and you simply buy a new one when the next newest thing comes along and you either throw away, give away or if you are poor you may even get 5000 dollars trade

      because of status. People in Thailand are buying Mini's that cost over $70,000 (because "import taxes"). BMW started assembling Mini's in Thailand now and instead of making them cheaper, they kept the same price because they are selling so many at $70,000.

    Oh please. If anyone buys this car for off Road or even dirt/gravel roads you will be in the body shop all the time. Too much coin for too little function

    It's not a cross over. It's an SUV pal.

    The sales increase might also be due to the inequitable distribution of wealth in the world too.

      With nonsense views like that, why would you even be looking at a video like this? go get a job then you can quit whining about wealth distribution.

    This new model is redundant. You already have the Range Rover Sport, Range Rover Evoque, and the Discovery Sport which all are close in size and appearance to this new Velar.
