Range Rover will finally launch its first electric SUV later this year. In the meantime, the luxury brand has several new EV models in the pipeline, including a smaller (likely more affordable) Velar. The Range Rover Velar EV <\/a>is coming soon with an upgraded design and much more.<\/p>\n

Range Rover Velar EV will debut with a new design<\/h2>\n

Anticipation is building for Range Rover\u2019s first fully electric SUV. Earlier this year, Jaguar Land Rover said the Range Rover Electric had already secured 57,000 clients<\/a> on the waitlist.<\/p>\n

Ahead of its official debut later this year, the electric SUV is being put through the paces<\/a> in Sweden. After that, Range Rover will launch the smaller Sport model. Both will look almost identical to the gas-powered models with the luxury brand\u2019s signature design.<\/p>\n

The new Velar EV is set to debut just months after the Range Rover Electric and Sport models arrive. Unlike the other models, the Velar is set for a major revamp, including a new style and 800V platform.<\/p>\n

The upgrades are designed to help the Velar stand apart from the Sport and Evoque models. They could also help it compete with others in the segment, like the Porsche Macan Electric.<\/p>\n

On the inside, expect a minimalist design similar to the larger Range Rover models, with a heavy focus on premium materials and tech. The company said its new EMA platform will have hands-free, eyes-on driving assist and OTA updates.<\/p>\n

JLR\u2019s CEO Adrian Mardell confirmed last year<\/a> that the Range Rover Velar will be the first EV to ride on its new EMA platform.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll first have MLA BEV, with the Range Rover BEV later next year,\u201d Mardell said, adding, \u201cThen it\u2019s the first vehicle off EMA, which will probably be springtime in 2026.\u201d<\/p>\n
