Range Rover Velar P400 e Autobiography PHEV Driven for 2025

Velar P400 e – It’s been few years since I’ve driven a Range Rover Velar. And there is no better way to reintroduce myself to the model than with an Autobiography P400 e .

I do like the design of the Velar; its elegant and subtle style creates a presence on the road.

Inside the ebony interior provides immediate ambience.

Sitting in the front seats you appreciate the sense of luxury and comfort. The 3D surround sound system makes you feel like you are at a live concert.

Rear seats are a little cramped for leg room and not ideal for a baby seat. I’m still sitting in the back with my little boy, and it’s not really designed for that.

Boot space is reasonable, but with a sloping roof line you do lose some capacity.

With a two litre Plug in Hybrid petrol motor, there is plenty of performance. The electric only range is about 60 kilometres, and it will easily charge overnight.

Driving the Velar Autobiography is so smooth and quiet. Ride and handling is what you would expect from Range Rover.

Few car brands have suspension as smooth as this.

Given the levels of luxury, it’s strange to think about taking this car off road, but it is capable. I just don’t think any owners will.

Snow trips and weekends away at the country estate are more its style.

Pricing for the Range Rover Velar Autobiography P400 e starts from a bit under $139,000 dollars plus the usual costs.
