Article Summary
New spy shots from Nürburgring testing hint that the next-generation Range Rover Velar EV could shift away from conventional SUV styling, favoring a silhouette more like a coupe crossover or tall wagon. Disguises on the prototype—including roof extensions and false grilles—suggest Land Rover may be trying to redefine what the Velar represents. Subtle details like its sloping rear roofline, reduced ground clearance, and possibly even an absent rear window challenge traditional design norms. With competitors like the Porsche Macan Electric and Audi Q6 e-tron in mind, Jaguar Land Rover appears ready to make a bold aesthetic statement to distinguish the Velar in the luxury EV market.
