If you’ve been eyeing the Velar but wanted something even more luxurious, the new Range Rover Velar Autobiography might be just what you’re looking for. Priced from ₹89.90 lakh (ex-showroom), this new top-tier variant gets a mix of high-end materials, more tech and subtle design upgrades. Interested buyers can now reserve the Velar Autobiography at authorized Range Rover showrooms across India.
Design Upgrades That Say Luxury
From the outside, the Velar Autobiography doesn’t shout for attention – it whispers elegance. You get burnished copper accents on the bumpers and badges, 20-inch Satin Dark Grey alloy wheels, and Pixel LED headlights that look as sharp as they perform. The classic floating roof and flush door handles are still here, keeping that signature Velar silhouette intact. Most body colors (except Santorini Black) get a black roof for a premium dual-tone finish.
Interior Loaded with Comfort and Tech
Step inside and you’re met with a cabin that feels like a first-class lounge. The front seats offer 20-way power adjustability, come with massage, heating and cooling functions and are wrapped in Windsor leather. Even rear passengers get power-recline seats.
The dashboard is centred around a curved 11.4-inch touchscreen running Pivi Pro with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. There’s also four-zone climate control, air purification system and Meridian 3D Surround Sound System that will make your playlists sound like a concert.
Powerful Yet Refined Engine Options
The Velar Autobiography comes with two engine options:
- 2.0L turbo petrol (P250): 247 hp and 365 Nm
- The 2.0-litre diesel mild-hybrid engine delivers a solid 201 horsepower and a torque output of 430 Nm, offering a refined yet responsive drive.
Each engine comes mated to a smooth 8-speed automatic gearbox, working in sync with an all-wheel-drive setup for confident traction. You also get terrain tech like Terrain Response 2, adaptive dynamics and electronic air suspension – so it’s just as happy on dirt trails as it is on city streets.
Safety and Competition
You’re covered on the safety front too. It gets a 360-degree camera, hill descent control, multiple airbags, ABS and EBD. In the luxury SUV space, this model takes on big guns like the BMW X5, Audi Q7, Volvo XC90 and Mercedes-Benz GLE.
