In case you ever considered Land Rover’s stylish
Range Rover Velar model to be a little too low-key, here’s a little something
from Startech that might turn things around for you.
The German tuner started with the front of the
Velar, where a new bumper was installed, featuring an integrated spoiler and
larger air intakes. This front end design can be combined with both the
production bodywork, as well as the 16-piece widebody kit, which adds another
60 mm in width.
Underneath the larger wheel arches lay the black
22-inch Startech Monostar M wheels, with a five double-spoke design. Look close
and you will notice how the spokes actually extend all the way to the outer
flange, making the wheels look even bigger than they already are.
At the rear, there is a new insert to replace the
production center panel, a diffuser and integrated exhaust tips. Rounding off
the visuals is the tuner’s ride height lowering system, available for all Velar
models with air suspension, lowering the SUV by 30 mm while on the
move.
Another interesting mod you can order from Startech
is the Sound XTRA module, available for all gasoline and diesel versions of the
Velar. What this electronic sound generator does is produce a virtual gasoline
V8 sound, without being “annoyingly loud,” says the tuner.
For the interior, customers can opt for
fine leather and Alcantara upholstery, as well as matching wood and carbon
fiber trim. This customized British SUV will make its public debut at the 2018
Geneva Motor Show, next week.
