The Land Rover Range Rover Velar comes with a luxurious interior with all of the creature comforts and a super well-built cabin. The cabin gets an Ebony-themed interior Cosmic Grey trim finishing in the base trim while the higher models are finished in a Shadow Aluminum trim finish. The interior features Ebony perforated grained leather seats in the base trim, while the higher trims further get suede cloth inserts in the seats. The top-end HSE trim also gets an extended leather upgrade and comes with Ebony perforated Windsor leather.
The base trims get 14-way-adjustability for the driver seat along with memory functionality for the front seats while the R-Dynamic HSE trim comes exclusively with 20–way heated and cooled, memory, massage front seats. The seats are supportive and super-comfortable during long drives and journeys. The interior is spacious and offers enough space in both rows along with a spacious cargo area. The legroom in the front, as well as second rows, is impressive while the shoulder room is a bit tight compared to others in the segment. The Velar, however, has a cargo capacity of 34.4 cu-ft which is very good.
