Range Rovers are built for off-road adventures, whether you’re headed to the desert, your favorite beach, or the mountains up north. But what about speed? Did you know the 2023 Range Rover Velar has some zip in it? Well, you will soon.
The team at Land Rover San Diego believes the 2023 Range Rover Velar is more than just for traversing Del Mar or Rancho Santa Fe roads and highways. It’s fantastic for commutes, weekly shopping trips, beach outings, and mountain camping. 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 rugged SUV goes.
The 2023 Range Rover Velar has three trims and two basic engine types.
MHEV stands for mild hybrid electric vehicle. Electricity-generated power 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 La Jolla too frequently.
Further, the 2023 Range Rover Velar horsepower follows suit with the engine types. The non-MHEV engine generates 247 hp while the MHEV reaches 394 hp.
2023 Range Rover Velar 0-60
Acceleration is where the 2023 Range Rover Velar can do some surprising things. These sporty SUVs can accelerate to 60 mph pretty fast for a vehicle designed for off-roading at its heart. 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 engine. The top two trims with the 3.0L MHEV engine can accelerate even faster than the gas-only models. A 2023 Range Rover Velar Dynamic SE with the MHEV reaches 60 mph in 5.2 seconds. So, a larger engine and electric assist are faster.
The top trim of the 2023 Range Rover Velar also reaches the highest speed. This vehicle is rated to max out at 155 mph. We certainly don’t recommend driving at 155 mph. However, if you find yourself on the salt flats or on a straight stretch of desert, feel free to let loose and just drive.
