When you step inside any luxury SUV, you expect to be immersed in the sophistication of contemporary craftsmanship and refined finishing materials. Both the Range Rover Velar and the Volvo XC90 bring all that to the table and more.
With either model, you’ll have a comfortable ride. You can sit back and relax in shared available amenities, such as:
The latest infotainment technology will also be right at your fingertips in these SUVs. Both models can connect you to advanced features such as Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. However, only the Pivi Pro system of the Range Rover Velar is available with an upper and lower dual-Touchscreen display. There’s only one Touchscreen in the XC90.
When your favorite song comes on, both models supply concert-like audio. The Range Rover Velar has the available Meridianâ„¢ 3D Surround Sound System, which envelops you in every beat thanks to its 17 speakers. The similar Bowers & Wilkins high-fidelity audio system will do the same in the XC90.
Once you’re behind the wheel, you’ll have all the confidence you need to enjoy the ride to the fullest. Both the Range Rover Velar and the XC90 come with a plethora of safety and driver-assistance features.
With either the Range Rover Velar or the XC90, you can drive with peace of mind thanks to these safety systems:
The Range Rover Velar can also act as an attentive copilot thanks to its standard Driver Condition Monitor. It will alert you if it detects drowsy or distracted driving, so you can refocus on the road or pull over for a short break. The Volvo XC90 doesn’t offer a similar feature.
Both models come standard with a Rear Camera, so you can get a better view of what’s behind you. They also both include a Front and Rear Parking Aid, so you’ll receive alerts if you get too close to an obstacle in the front or rear of the vehicle.
We know these SUVs are both comfortable and safe, but what about the power that lies under their respective hoods? The Range Rover Velar and the XC90 have powerful engines powering them, but let's find out which one comes out on top.
All Wheel Drive (AWD) comes standard with both the Volvo XC90 and the Range Rover Velar. That means you’ll be ready to take on slick streets and all-terrain trails with ease.
They also both come standard with a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine that provides about 250 horsepower .
The Range Rover Velar separates itself once you get way off the beaten path. It offers Terrain Response®, which helps the SUV adapt to several different types of terrain. The XC90 doesn’t offer a similar feature.
You’ll also have All Terrain Progress Control with the Range Rover Velar. This low-speed cruise control will maintain a set speed, so you can keep your focus on traversing the trail ahead.
The competition was close, but if you’re looking for the SUV that’s better off-road and comes with superior technology, the 2023 Range Rover Velar could be just what you need out on the roads of Baton Rouge, Gonzales, and Lafayette.
