"The name “Velar” comes from the Italian velare, which means “veiled” or “hidden”. It was a name that Land Rover engineers used for a decoy company back in the 1960s to conceal pre-production registration of Range Rovers. As a nod to that history, the fourth model in the Range Rover line was called the Velar. It represents a more middle-of-the-road version, somewhere between the Evoque and the Sport. The design of this car, which Land Rover refers to as “reductionist”, was intended to emphasize sportiness, and was actually influenced by its Jaguar brother, the I-Pace! It has a more subtle, curved profile and a lower seating position for the driver, in order to improve performance."—Official description[1]
The 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Velar First Edition - abbreviated as "Land Rover Velar" - is an all-wheel drive crossover SUV by Land Rover.
It appears in Forza Horizon 4 since Update 26, and Forza Horizon 5.
Synopsis[]
The Range Rover Velar is the fourth model variant in the Range Rover series, slotted between the full-size Range Rover Sport SVR and subcompact Evoque. It started production in 2017.
The Range Rover Velar has a total of nine optional engines, ranging from a 2.0L Turbocharged I4 to a 5.0L Supercharged V8. The in game model has the 3.0L Supercharged V6 from the P380. The 5.0L Supercharged V8 from the Range Rover Sport SVR can be swapped in, effectively converting the in-game car from a First Edition to a SVAutobiography Dynamic.
