2021 Range Rover Velar vs. 2021 BMW X6: Dare to Be Different

The Range Rover Velar features a well-calibrated balance of power, luxury, style and technologies that will take you and your family wherever you want to go. But the Velar’s uniqueness is what stands out the most on the road, with technologies that other run-of-the-mill SUVs cannot offer. Moreover, the Range Rover Velar is also much more affordable than one could imagine.  

Here, we compare the Range Rover Velar to the BMW X6.

The 2021 Range Rover Velar offers a better range of engines, and better pricing

The Velar features three powertrains that fill your needs for more efficiency, give you maximum performance or carefully balances both. The Velar S includes a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder P250 engine with 247 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque. The P340 engine in the R-Dynamic S deploys 335 horsepower with its six-cylinder, turbocharged engine. The R-Dynamic HSE with the P400 engine offers 395 horsepower and a 0-100 km/h time of 5.5 seconds. 

The main engine in the BMW X6 is a six-cylinder 3.0-litre turbo engine that outputs 335 hp. This is similar to the Velar’s P340 engine, but this base X6 starts at just over $80,000. The P340-equipped Velars starts at just $73,000, which is much less costly for the same amount of power.

All in all, the Velar supplies plenty of horsepower, at a better price.

The 2021 Range Rover Velar innovates

While the BMW X6 is more like a typical mall crawler, the Velar boasts a complicated yet very useful set of skills that becomes very useful when wandering off the beaten path. For example, the standard All-Terrain Response system optimizes the engine, gearbox, differential and other systems to handle any type of terrain.

With six distinct driving modes, you’ll be able to take on dry roads, mud, wet grass, ice, snow, and dirt. The optional Terrain Response 2 pushes things even further by adding even more capability. The X6 does not have a system this advanced. 

The Velar also features things like the optional Nanoe ionization which enhances driver and passenger well-being by attracting and capturing fine particles and airborne allergens from the outside air to make the cabin cleaner for you and your passengers.
