Watch And Listen To The Range Rover Velar SVR As It Shouts Its Way Around The 'Ring
Jaguar Land Rover has wasted no time in building a hot version of the Range Rover Velar. The standard car hasn’t been launched yet, but a Velar SVR (yep, we realise the rhyming is unfortunate) has already been spotted undergoing testing at the Nurburgring.
Power is most likely coming from JLR’s tried and tested 5.0-litre supercharged V8. Expect a 542bhp output, and - given the weight advantage over the Range Rover Sport SVR - a 0-62mph time in the low 4s.
Despite some inevitable, tyre squeal-inducing understeer seen in the testing footage, it looks pretty handy in the corners for a big, high-riding SUV. We can’t wait to have a go…
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

I wonder if this’ll be faster than the RR Sport SVR, it must be lighter
Hearing the Velar SVR’s exhaust note make me feel like this:
But no XFR? Cool
Well done, JLR, but don’t count this as an excuse to not make the XE SVR and XF SVR.
I never thought a boat could sound so nice.
Annoys me how JLR waste no time in building a pointless supercharged V8 powered small Range Rover, but don’t give any hint of a Jaguar XE and XF SVR 🙄
Now footballers can be heard and seen in their brand new RR Velar SVR wrapped chrome gold
I was expecting a superCharged v6 tbh, but that v8 though. Omnomnom
