The campaign debuts today with a brand commercial featuring Land Rover U.S. Alpine Ski Team member, and two-time Olympic gold medalist Mikaela Shiffrin. In the 30 second spot, Mikaela enjoys overcoming heavy winter snow with ease and determination in a Range Rover Sport to make it to the mountain daily.
Is the #Range-Rover Evoque a good car?
The Range Rover #Evoque is a small, premium SUV that you should consider if you want stylish looks, a high-tech interior and the ability to traipse further off-road than the likes of the #Audi Q3, #BMW X2 and #Volvo #XC40.
In fact, this all-new model features some of the fanciest #4×4 tech of any small SUV, which is a bit like wearing all the latest gear for a Himalayas expedition for a stroll to the shops.
It doesn’t look particularly futuristic from the outside. In fact, from the side, this new model looks almost identical to the old #Range-Rover #Evoque – even though they only share their door hinges.
From the front, it looks much more fresh-faced thanks to some hand-me-down headlights borrowed from its bigger brother – the Velar – as well as some tasty copper-coloured details in high-spec R-Dynamic guise.
Things feel very different inside, however, where you’ll find a feast of high-tech features – like those modern digital cameras that have been made to look like a retro 35mm item. All models come with at least a 10-inch screen, but higher trims come with two screens stacked on the centre console. Go for a top-spec model and you get three infotainment displays including a digital driver’s display.
The whole system’s pretty easy to use and it can even learn where you want your seat positioned, how warm you want the cabin and whether you prefer a gentle or heavy-handed seat massage. Very impressive. Even so, alternative infotainment systems from BMW, Audi and Mercedes do everything a little bit better again.
You do have to pay extra for leather seats, but you can choose to trim your #Evoque’s cabin with upholstery made with a Eucalyptus-based fabric instead. It’s kinder to the environment and will doubtless score you plenty of (dairy-free) brownie points from any vegan passengers.
Even in the company of many swanky small #SUVs, the Range Rover Evoque is one of the most stylish. And, it comes with some seriously impressive in-car tech, too.
Vegan or not, even your fussiest friends won’t have much to complain about in the Evoque. There’s enough space in the back for six-foot-tall adults to get comfortable and the seats themselves are nice and supportive. Things are even better in the front, where you get loads of adjustment to help you find your ideal driving position.
Unlike the old Evoque, this new car comes with five doors (instead of three) as standard so it’s dead easy to fit a child seat in the back. Loading the boot won’t present any problems either – the new Evoque’s boot is around 10% bigger than the old car’s and much larger than the BMW X2’s so there’s plenty of space for a few suitcases or a few generously proportioned dogs.
If you fancy taking your four-legged friends for a countryside excursion, the Range Rover Evoque is more than up to the job – providing you avoid the entry-level diesel and petrol models with front-wheel drive.
The rest of the range comes with a smooth automatic gearbox, grippy four-wheel drive and your choice of petrol mild-hybrid, diesel mild-hybrid or petrol plug-in hybrid power, producing as much as 309hp. Despite all this hybrid-ness, generally speaking, you’ll find the Evoque’s alternatives use less fuel.
You get a host of off-road driving aids to help make sure you don’t get stuck too, including Land Rover’s Terrain Response 2 system. This makes setting the car up for a variety of off-road conditions easy and you can even wade through water up to 60cm deep – just the thing when you’re faced with a flash flood on the school run. It’s just a shame that some of these headline new systems aren’t included, and aren’t cheap to add.
If pottering around town sounds more like your thing, you can get the Range Rover Evoque with a clever camera system which helps you avoid scraping its lovely alloy wheels on tall kerbs or narrow width restrictors.
All this means the Range Rover Evoque is just as happy nipping to the shops as it is clawing its way up rocky farm tracks. So, if it’s a small SUV with a posh cabin, plenty of off-road ability and an impressive amount of tech you’re after, this could be the car for you.
