2017 Volvo XC60 vs 2018 Range Rover VELAR Comparison - INTERIOR, EXTERIOR, TEST DRIVE

The new Volvo XC60, one of the safest cars ever made, is fully-loaded with new technology. Steer Assist has been added to the ground-breaking City Safety system. A new safety system called Oncoming Lane Mitigation uses steer assist to help mitigate head-on collisions, while Volvo’s Blind Spot Indication System (BLIS) now uses Steer Assist functionality to reduce the risk of lane-changing collisions.
The new Volvo XC60 offers Volvo’s award-winning T8 Twin Engine petrol plug-in hybrid at the top of the powertrain range, delivering 407 hp and acceleration from 0-100 Km in just 5.3 seconds.
The New Range Rover Velar, the fourth member of the Range Rover family, is an instantly recognisable descendant of the original luxury SUV - a globally lauded, landmark industrial design. Yet Velar’s form, stance and proportions leave an overwhelming impression of the unfamiliar, of the new. The start of another revolution.
2018 Range Rover Velar is a distinct and further iteration of the original Range Rover character, conceived to play a powerful new role in the evolving Range Rover narrative, sitting between the Range Rover Evoque and the Range Rover Sport. Its stop-you-in-your-tracks looks are born from a process driven by ‘reductionism’, a discipline faithful to the original Range Rover but enabled by the very latest thinking in design, precision engineering and technology.
2018 Range Rover Velar is an SUV that exudes a sense of precision, craft and quality. With fast and flush glass, delicate and beautifully slim illumination and features - inside and out - rendered invisible until required, Velar belongs in the precision-led design world of 21st century technology.
Yet its unmistakable fidelity to the idea that gave birth to the original Range Rover - the idea that what use is groundbreaking technology and engineering if it does not expand and enhance its customer’s engagement with the world - loans it an indisputable sense of purpose.
2018 Range Rover Velar takes its name from the prototypes of the first Range Rover, the first vehicle to take luxury and technology into unexplored territory - literally. Velar, with its dramatically different approach to luxury and technology builds on that idea, expanding - once again - our understanding of the notion of a luxury SUV.
“2018 Range Rover Velar is now the compelling, stand-out design in the class, showcasing perfectly optimised volume, powerful, taut surfaces and a stunning silhouette,” says McGovern.

I think Velar interior is more Royal, Sublime luxury; XC60 has more of a Zen-like Uncluttered Calmness to it, more thoughtful for me.
