Land Rover\u2019s smallest premium SUV, the Range Rover Evoque<\/strong><\/a>, offers contemporary luxury and style in a compact luxury crossover SUV.<\/p>\n

The new luxury Range Rover Evoque boasts an array of tested and proven features both old and new.<\/p>\n

Here is a look at some of the outstanding features in the Evoque portfolio:<\/p>\n

Leading-edge Design<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Evoque\u2019s bold exterior features interpretations of classic Range Rover design cues, including the signature clamshell bonnet, the floating roof and the solid ‘wheel-at-each-corner’ stance.<\/p>\n

The Range Rover Evoque comes with LED-adaptive headlamps providing a jewel-like quality to the slim front and rear lamps with their LED signature lighting and tapering blade indicator clusters.<\/p>\n

Available in coup\u00e9, five-door and convertible body styles, Evoque\u2019s bold and progressive design reaffirms its class-leading status.<\/p>\n

The Range Rover Evoque also offers five trim levels including Pure, SE, HSE, HSE Dynamic and Autobiography.<\/p>\n

Advanced powertrain and chassis technology<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A choice of three compact, lightweight and low-emission four-cylinder Ingenium engines are available for the 2018 model year Evoque.<\/p>\n

One petrol engine, in two outputs, and two diesel, in three outputs, complete the new powertrain line-up.<\/p>\n

Designed to appeal to urban buyers, the Evoque also meets the requirements for lower CO2 emissions and fuel economy.<\/p>\n

All five derivatives meet stringent EU6 emissions regulations.<\/p>\n

The full engine line-up is detailed in the table below:<\/p>\n

Peerless off-road capability<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Range Rover Evoque has always been as outstanding to drive off-road as on it, with class-leading approach (25 degrees), breakover (22 degrees), and departure (33 degrees) angles (all standard body kit), a wading depth of 500mm, and a suite of advanced all-terrain technologies.<\/p>\n

Whatever the weather, Evoque continues to deliver the all-terrain capability hallmark of the Land Rover brand, making use of a unique suite of technologies to maximise performance and safety in challenging on- and off-road conditions.<\/p>\n

The primary technology is Terrain Response, which adapts the responses of the vehicle\u2019s engine, gearbox, centre coupling and braking\/stability systems to match the demands of the terrain, optimising driveability, and comfort as well as maximising traction.<\/p>\n

The Range Rover Evoque has four Terrain Response settings, selected via a control on the centre console: General Driving (on-road and easy off-road); Grass\/Gravel\/Snow (slippery conditions, on- and off-road); Mud and Ruts; and Sand.<\/p>\n

An additional Dynamic setting is available for cars specified with Adaptive Dynamics.<\/p>\n

All-Terrain Progress Control (ATPC) enhances Evoque\u2019s highly-accomplished four-wheel-drive chassis with signature Terrain Response\u00ae technology.<\/p>\n

And in off-road situations when roads are flooded every Evoque can wade through water to a depth of 500mm, thanks to Wade Sensing an invaluable benefit.<\/p>\n

Advanced Touch Pro infotainment system<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Evoque comes with a suite of advanced infotainment and driver-assistance systems that keep Evoque at the cutting-edge of technological innovation.<\/p>\n

With the collaboration of your smartphone and vehicle you are provided with a wealth of information that will keep you well informed and entertained.<\/p>\n

InControl Apps helps link your smartphone seamlessly to the system, allowing you to control compatible apps via the Touchscreen, whilst the Meridian\u2122 Sound System plays your music.<\/p>\n

And with the 10\u201d Touchscreen\u2019s Navigation Pro system and optional Dual View, the way ahead can be displayed as your front seat passenger watches a DVD.<\/p>\n

Evoque Convertible \u2013 the world\u2019s only luxury compact SUV Convertible<\/strong><\/h3>\n

One of the main attractions positioned at the pinnacle of the Evoque portfolio is the Range Rover Evoque Convertible.<\/p>\n

The Evoque convertible also carries the official label of the world\u2019s first luxury compact SUV convertible and the first ever convertible production Range Rover.<\/p>\n

This latest Range Rover evolution further broadens the desirability of the Evoque family, taking the Land Rover brand to a new audience looking for a unique combination of roof-down luxury and refinement.<\/p>\n

Land Rover\u2019s design and engineering teams carefully evaluated all possible convertible roof systems before opting for a sophisticated Z-fold fabric roof from Webasto.<\/p>\n

Featuring tension bow architecture to complement Evoque\u2019s crisply defined proportions, a flush-fitting heated glass rear window complements the luxurious acoustic insulation for maximum refinement.<\/p>\n

Pressing the concealed roof button in the centre console, the roof system lowers in just 18 seconds while raising in 21 seconds.<\/p>\n

Advanced driver-assistance systems<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Land Rover fails to disappoint with advance driver assistance incorporated into the Evoque portfolio, as driver-assistance is becoming a non-negotiable for every new model hitting the market.<\/p>\n

The Evoque features a full suite of advanced assistance features such as Blind Spot Monitor and Closing Vehicle Sensing, Head-Up Display, Lane Departure Warning, Traffic Sign Recognition, Autonomous Emergency Braking, Lane Keeping Assist, and Driver Condition Monitor for maximum convenience and safety.<\/p>\n
