We all know that Range Rovers are built for off-road adventuring. But what about speed? Did you know these vehicles have some zip to them? Well, you will soon. We at Land Rover Boerne like to think the 2023 Range Rover Velar is more than just for leapfrogging tumbleweeds on San Antonio roads. They’re fantastic for commutes, weekend getaways to the Gulf, or heading to a Spurs game. To see if this is your adventuring (and everyday) vehicle, read on below to learn about the 2023 Range Rover Velar’s engine capabilities and how fast this SUV goes.
The 2023 Range Rover Velar has three trims and two basic engine types.
MHEV stands for mild hybrid electric engine, meaning the electricity assists the main engine by helping the vehicle during braking, coasting, or idling. The overall goal is to save you on fuel costs so you don’t have to worry about stopping at the pumps in Kerrville too frequently.
2023 Range Rover Velar 0-60
Here’s where the 2023 Range Rover Velar can do some surprising things. These sporty SUVs can accelerate to 60 mph decently fast. The models with the 2.0L P250 engine can go from 0- 60 mph in 7.1 seconds. But the real fun begins with the MHEV engines. The top two trims with the 3.0L MHEV engines can accelerate even faster. A 2023 Range Rover Velar R-Dynamic S with the MHEV reaches 60 mph in 6.0 seconds. So, a larger engine and electric assist is faster. You can almost shave off two full seconds of the slowest 0-60 time with the Velar HST. That trim reaches 60 mph in 5.2 seconds. Not bad for an SUV known for off-roading!
The top trim of the 2023 Range Rover Velar also reaches the top speed. This vehicle is rated to max out at 135 mph. We certainly don’t recommend driving at 135 mph. However, if you find yourself on the Autobahn in one of these babies, feel free to let loose and just drive.
