That makes it slightly longer and taller than the F-Pace, albeit a smidge narrower, with its wheelbase identical and track fractionally wider, yet it’s 3.0 inches shorter than the mid-size Range Rover Sport overall, with a 1.9-inch shorter wheelbase, 5.4-inch lower height, 2.9-inch narrower width, and 2.0/1.1-inch narrower front/rear track. It measures 189.1 inches in length with a 113.1-inch wheelbase, 65.5 inches tall and 84.4 inches wide with its mirrors extended, while its track spans 64.6 inches up front and 65.2 inches at the back. They probably won’t, as there’s room below the Discovery Sport for a smaller entry-level Land Rover and above the full-size Range Rover (at least for a third row), but it’s difficult to imagine them topping the Velar in the compact luxury segment.Ĭompact? Yes the Velar, like the Jaguar F-Pace it shares chassis architectures and drivetrains with, is large enough that it borders on mid-size. sales grow by almost 50 percent since that aforementioned Discovery Sport arrived, whereas Jaguar has seen its numbers rise by 133 percent over the same period, for a collective 70.7 percent gain since 2014 began and 2017 ended.Īs far as new model expansion goes, Land Rover could stop right here at the Range Rover Velar and I’d be more than satisfied.

This, plus a completely reimagined mid-size Land Rover Discovery, has seen the brand’s U.S. A few years ago we saw the Land Rover Discovery Sport enter the compact SUV segment that only had the Range Rover Evoque prior to that, albeit half a size smaller, and now the new Range Rover Velar enters the same compact SUV segment, although it’s half a size larger. Being that Land Rover is purely a sport utility brand and therefore won’t built cars (although the Evoque Convertible gets pretty close), its growth has come by adding namesake models in market segments previously held only by Range Rovers, and vice versa. The most noticeable additions include three new Jaguars, namely the XE compact sedan, F-Pace compact SUV, and all-new E-Pace subcompact SUV. Britain’s Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) group is on an unprecedented growth curve, mostly due to an obsession with filling gaps in its portfolio.
