Used 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Velar SUV Trims Comparison

The R-Dynamic S primarily adds sporty styling upgrades inside and out. The R-Dynamic HSE includes a more powerful version of the other two trims' optional V6, along with an adaptive air suspension and additional luxury features. The range-topping SVAutobiography Dynamic Edition is powered by a muscular supercharged V8 and includes even more performance and luxury upgrades.

The S and R-Dynamic S models are powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (247 horsepower, 269 lb-ft of torque). A supercharged 3.0-liter V6 (340 hp, 332 lb-ft) is optional on both trims. The R-Dynamic HSE utilizes a more potent version of this motor, developing 380 hp and 332 lb-ft. The SVAutobiography turns up the performance wick with a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 (550 hp, 502 lb-ft). Regardless of engine, every Velar has all-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic transmission.

Standard feature highlights for the base Velar S include 19-inch wheels, LED headlights, auto-dimming and heated mirrors, a panoramic sunroof, a blind-spot monitor, perforated leather upholstery, navigation, and an 11-speaker audio system with satellite radio and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto integration.

The R-Dynamic S further adds black-painted exterior trim, faux-suede seating inserts and steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters.

Selecting the R-Dynamic HSE adds the uprated V6, along with 21-inch wheels, an adaptive air suspension, heated and ventilated front seats with additional adjustments and massage, passenger-seat memory settings, additional leather trim and adaptive cruise control.

The SVAutobiography Dynamic Edition blends extreme high performance with high-end luxury features. The centerpiece with this trim is the supercharged V8, which produces nearly 200 hp more than the R-Dynamic HSE's V6. This trim also includes a black-painted roof (a body-colored roof is available), upgraded brakes, sport-tuned air suspension calibration, a heated steering wheel, upgraded leather, four-zone climate control and a faux-suede headliner.

Most of the extra standard features of the higher trim levels are offered as options on the lower trims. The Range Rover Velar is also available with a wide range of optional features packages. Notable packages include Driver Assist (a 360-degree parking camera, adaptive cruise control, lane centering assist, rear cross-traffic alert, and automated parallel and perpendicular parking), Tow (a 360-degree camera, tow hitch receiver with connectors and towing assist software), and Convenience (a hands-free tailgate, two rear USB ports, remote seat-lowering levers, a cargo net, and a wristband fitness tracker that doubles as a key).

Stand-alone options include 22-inch wheels, a 1,600-watt surround-sound system and dual rear-seat entertainment displays.
