The first Range Rover Evoque was launched in Malaysia nine years ago with great success. Malaysians who wanted a ‘Range Rover’ but had little money could get one for the same price as a luxury sedan.
At the time, it was the smallest, lightest, and most fuel-efficient Range Rover ever produced. Furthermore, he had no other worthy rivals.
In just three years after its introduction, more than 400,000 Range Rover Evoque units had been produced worldwide, making this premium compact SUV the faster sale Land Rover of all time. That was until rivals were introduced in 2015.
The new Evoque
This new Range Rover Evoque is a sophisticated evolution of the original Evoque and has won more than 217 international awards.
Based on the original design, the new Range Rover Evoque retains the distinctive coupe-like silhouette, fast roof line and rising waistline that identify the Range Rover family.
The outside
The introduction of jewel-like elements, such as super-slim Matrix LED headlights, provides a more sophisticated headlight and taillight graphic.
Flush door handles first seen on Range Rover Velar add to the smooth, sculpted aesthetic, while wide turn signals create a purposeful signature.
R-Dynamic details and burnished copper accents also add to the unique appeal.
Inside
The cabin is a quiet, comfortable and serene space with the dual touchscreen Touch Pro Duo system featuring new and faster software, 16-way seat controls and cabin air ionization.
And with Land Rover’s new premium transverse architecture, a longer wheelbase provides 20mm of extra knee room at the rear and increased storage for small items – the larger glove box and center compartment can now fit tablets, bags and bottles with ease.
Luggage space is 10% larger (591 liters) and wider, while overall space can increase to 1,383 liters when the second row seats are folded down.
The key features
With a segment-first ‘ClearSight rearview mirror’ that transforms into an HD video display, drivers are equipped with a 50-degree wider field of view and superior visibility in low-light conditions.
If rear visibility is compromised, drivers can simply flip a switch at the bottom of the mirror and a camera from the top of the car will show what’s behind the vehicle in high definition.
On the other hand, there is also the first Ground View technology, which makes the hood invisible by projecting camera images onto the upper touchscreen, useful for navigating difficult parking spaces, city-center sidewalks or tackling terrain. injured.
Advanced driver assistance systems are available such as Adaptive Cruise Control with Steering Assist, which centers the vehicle based on road markings and maintains a safe distance from other vehicles, and active safety features such as the Vehicle Maintenance Assistant. lane, autonomous emergency braking and driver status monitor. to keep occupants safe.
This Evoque is also the first to use Smart Settings by using artificial intelligence algorithms to understand driver preferences and acts as a butler on board.
This ‘self-learning’ technology recognizes up to eight drivers from your key fob and phone and will adjust seat and steering column positions, preferred temperature settings, media preferences and commonly dialed numbers.
The abilities
Advanced Ingenium engines are quieter and more refined, while the recalibrated nine-speed ZF automatic gearbox ensures a smoother, more progressive ride on all terrains.
As mentioned above, Terrain Response 2 is available for the first time on the new Evoque. Drivers can choose from four modes: Comfort, Sand, Grass-Gravel-Snow, and Mud and Ruts, to optimize performance and capacity.
Additionally, a variety of off-road technologies such as Hill Descent Control, Gradient Release Control and All-Terrain Progress Control are available.
When needed, the Evoque automatically selects the most appropriate mode based on the condition and adjusts its torque delivery to suit the terrain.
Even wading in water up to 600mm is possible with Wade Sensing, which features ultrasonic sensors that accurately measure the depth of the water and display it on the central touchscreen.
Infotainment
Land Rover’s Touch Pro Duo infotainment system is central to the digital interior experience, combining two sleek 254mm HD glass touchscreens, a 312.42mm driver’s display behind the wheel, and a rear-wheel display. full color front display.
In addition, a smartphone integration system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is also available.
Momentum
The new Evoque may look like a pinch and fold, but it’s brand new from head to tail.
Step inside and you get that sports car vibe with its low roofline and driver-focused dash. The seats are well bolstered and there are enough adjustments to get your riding position just right.
The rear view mirror is still small with a slim rear glass, which is why Range Rover offers a ClearSight TV monitor-style rear view mirror. You can choose to use this in pure mirror mode or pure HD TV monitor mode to get a good view behind.
The Ingenium motor is quiet when idle, but once in motion, you hear a slight rumble when you push it. After a few minutes on the road, you will realize how well insulated and comfortable this new Evoque is.
For an all-terrain vehicle, the driving comfort is like a business sedan. However, it easily converts to a sports sedan once it enters ‘sports’ mode.
To top it off, car peace of mind is available with the 5-year or 150,000 km warranty, 5-year service, or the 65,000-km and 3-year roadside assistance packages that are included.
