This Range Rover Velar diesel mild-hybrid is noticeably more reliable than the UK average, with an 88.7% first-time pass rate versus 80% nationally—a genuinely solid performance for a premium SUV of this age. The dangerous defect rate sits at just 3.3%, well below any concern threshold, making this a safe bet from a structural and critical systems perspective.

At just over 26,600 miles median mileage, these vehicles are running light for three-year-olds, which partly explains the strong pass rate and the low failure average of 0.15 per vehicle. The 0.8 advisories per car suggest minor wear is starting to appear (typical for luxury models), so budget for small maintenance items—but if you're buying one, get a pre-purchase inspection to confirm the specific condition of the transmission and air suspension, the two costliest systems on this platform.
