Land Rover Range Rover Evoque

Despite being one of the most affordable among Land Rover vehicles, the Range Rover Evoque still has an impressive cabin layout. Land Rover really went all out with its technological features. Its cockpit has an interactive driver display and an electrically-adjustable steering column. Drivers have access to a standard steering wheel with a moonlight bezel as well as a premium-looking gear lever. 

For high-quality entertainment and navigation, this SUV comes with an 11.4-inch touchscreen infotainment display that is Pivi Pro-connected and is linked to a premium Meridian sound system. The infotainment system supports Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, voice control, Bluetooth connectivity, trip computer, AM/FM radio, and an ECO driving style assistant. 

Its cabin is not only high-tech, but also very comfortable and functional. Its seats are equipped with an Ebony with grained leather upholstery. These seats provide very supportive cushioning that can elevate the wellbeing of everyone on board. One downside of this car is its tight rear cabin. The thick pillars slightly limit the driver’s visibility while the limited headroom and shoulder space prevent three tall and large individuals from seating comfortably in the second row.

The Range Rover Evoque’s exterior styling is just oozing with confidence and sophistication. Its assertiveness on the road is really felt despite having a smaller size than most Land Rover vehicles. 

At the front, it has a sporty facade that is enhanced by Range Rover’s signature grille and a muscular bumper. It comes with automatic headlights with an automatic leveling feature. On the sides, you have flush door handles that give off a hypermodern feel as well as power-folding door mirrors with approach lights, auto dimming, and heating functions. Aside from these, trailing behind this vehicle, you will definitely notice its unique-looking LED tail and fog lights as well as its animated directional indicators.

Overall, this SUV has a two-toned body that is defined further by sleek black accents. The Range Rover Evoque is 4,371 mm in length, 2,100 mm in width (mirrors out), 1,649 mm in height, and 2,681 mm in wheelbase. This luxury SUV runs on 19-inch Style 5136 gloss dark grey wheels with an elegant diamond-turned contrast.

The Range Rover Evoque utilizes a passive suspension system with electronic traction and roll stability controls. Thanks to this suspension system, this luxury SUV has a great road grip. In addition, you and your passengers will enjoy a very stable ride inside this vehicle. The jumpy feeling from bumps and other road imperfections is also minimized effectively by its well-tuned chassis. 

The Range Rover Evoque is powered by a 2L, 4-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine that produces a maximum power output of 200 PS and a maximum torque of 320 Nm. It runs on 9-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel drive system. 

Similar to the Land Rover Discovery Sport, this would also make a great family vehicle. It runs smoothly on city roads and highways and has great power delivery and throttle response for a vehicle that is not performance-oriented. It is also very quiet inside thanks to its great NVH suppression. However, you might have to skip this one if you are concerned with high fuel consumption.

The Range Rover Evoque is equipped with cutting-edge driver assistance features such as adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, rear traffic monitor, blind spot assist, emergency braking, front and rear parking aids, rear collision and driver condition monitors, and a 3D surround camera. It is also equipped with standard safety and security features. Aside from these, its braking setup is also really responsive because it is protected by an anti-lock braking system, electronic brakeforce distribution, and an electric parking brake.

Even though the Range Rover Evoque is more expensive than other locally-available 5-seater luxury SUVs, like the BMW X1, its timeless exterior design, state-of-the-art technology and safety features, as well as its impressive suspension system make it worth the price.
