I'm a Mercedes fan but I believe as far as design is concerned the Velar is the best looking SUV in the market. Expect Mercedes to be superior when it comes to technology, performance when the 63 comes out, and reliability. Nice review , all the best.

Velar - My Dream CAR
-
Velar exterior is best and gle interior is best. I love both of them.
-
I think the best car to compare the GLE with is the Range Rover SPORT! They compete in the same segment.
-
The one and only velar. ❤️
-
I own a 2020 Velar and I’ve loved every minute of it, and I can’t wait for the Canadian winter to try the 4 wheel drive
-
The Velar’s infotainment is beautiful.

I had the Velar R-Dynamic P380, and it was one of the most enjoyable vehicles I have ever driven. Also an eye-catcher (though I see other manufacturers are starting to copy some of the RR "trademarks" - angles, even the shape of the wrap-around headlights and tail lights). I only parted ways with mine because it was about to go out of warranty. In Dynamic mode, what a fun ride, and a wonderful supercharger spool sound from under the hood! I would say that the seats are quite firm, which is nice in cornering but can make a long trip a little uncomfortable. Additionally, vision out the rear window is limited. Exhaust signature is muted, even in Dynamic - if you want exhaust pop, go for its cousin, the Jaguar F-Pace. I now have the AMG GLE 53. It took me a week to figure out how multiple-redundant it was - perhaps a tad overcomplex. Put into Sport+ mode (the only way I think someone should drive an AMG), and it is a fun car as well, with pleasing muffler pop. The electric motor alows you to take off from a dead stop as if the turbo were fully spooled. Overall the interior is much more refined vs. the almost racecar feel in the Velar - almost captian's chairs vs. the Velar's bucket seats. The seats are comfy enough to take a long drive in and the rear vision provides a much bigger picture. On the "meh" side, you see a lot of GLEs - enough that they really don't stand out (even the AMG). Additionally, for a car this nice, they should have hidden the rear wiper under the spoiler - ain't that difficult. Bottom line - I'll take either one if offered - but only in the turbo (AMG) or supercharged (Velar) V6 or V8 (GLE 63 S and Velar SVR, respectively). Leave the four cylinders for the GLAs and Evoques.

Range Rover Velar😍😍😍

The first time I saw the velar was 3 years ago and honestly I couldn't take my eyes off it, is so attractive and the design is magnificent, I like range rover sport and the evoque but this one looks incredible
-
Velar just makes such a bold statement, probly because it stole my heart. Oh, did I mention that I own one too😊💪🏿
-
Velar. Just purchased one and I love it. Very happy.
-
Velar is really attractive and beautiful. I think range rovers always define SUVs.
-
My husband and I just got a 2021 velar p340s r dynamic and absolutely love it. It’s a very sporty, quick SUV that is capable for what we need. (Snow driving) However the Mercedes looks badass. Beautiful aggressive looking vehicle.
-
I'd buy the Merc with my head and RR with my heart. My heart usually wins. It looks far better than the Merc.
-
Verry tough choise. At first when I saw the GLE I tought it looked too feminine, but after seeing it more and more I start too like it. I think style wise I choose the Velar. But Quality wise I choose the Merc.
-
Velar is the ultimate eye popper.😍😍😍
-
Both are awesome! (Velar for me please!)
-
I just bought a GLE and I love it. Cardinal Red is a beautiful color for this beefy SUV…
-
The Gle looks awesome in this colour!😎 First time here, great review!! New subscriber here!😂
