Land Rover Range Rover Evoque

2021-Range-Rover-Evoque1

The Range Rover Evoque, the luxury compact SUV for the city and beyond, is now even more sophisticated and digitally connected with the introduction of the new Range Rover Evoque Autobiography.

The Range Rover family is celebrating its 50th anniversary and the new Range Rover Evoque Autobiography sits at the pinnacle of the compact SUV’s line-up, embodying the refinement and luxury synonymous with Range Rover across five decades. The flagship Evoque Autobiography edition features distinctive and elegant exterior design accents and a luxurious interior. A plug-in-hybrid version is also available, for customers looking for a more sustainable, efficient luxury compact SUV.

Professor Gerry McGovern OBE, Chief Creative Officer, Land Rover, said: “The Range Rover Evoque Autobiography delivers the promise of Range Rover, with refined modernity and sophistication both on the exterior and interior. Since its introduction in 2010, the characterful Evoque has turned heads, and elegant details further enhance its sophisticated character.”

Following the launch of the P300e plug-in hybrid earlier in 2020, additional new engine options are now available for the Evoque. Two updated, efficient next-generation four-cylinder Ingenium diesel engines both feature Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV) technology. Using a belt-driven starter motor and battery pack, MHEV vehicles harvest energy normally lost under deceleration, feeding back to the vehicle’s 48-volt battery to boost the performance and deliver enhanced fuel economy. Available in 165PS and 200PS outputs, these engines are more powerful than the outgoing engines, with improved CO2 and fuel economy.

Customers continue to have a wide selection of additional petrol engines to choose from with P200, P250, and P300 options, all fitted with MHEV technology.

The digital experience inside the Evoque has been transformed with the introduction of Land Rover’s state-of-the-art Pivi infotainment. The system is ready to go as soon as it’s switched on – a separate data plan and battery mean there’s no delay. Software updates are available over-the-air via the vehicle’s embedded data connection at no cost, and can even be scheduled at a time to suit. This ensures customers always have the latest maps, apps, and vehicle features without having to visit a retailer. The system is enabled by a new Electrical Vehicle Architecture and is available as either standard Pivi or Pivi Pro from S-specification††.

Streaming music and media has never been simpler, with Spotify integrated directly within the infotainment menu for the first time – data included* – and Bluetooth connectivity for two phones at once. There’s also wireless device charging with a signal-boosting option. The new second-generation Activity Key is also available, allowing customers to unlock any door, lock, or even start the vehicle, just by being nearby.

Alex Heslop, Director of Electrical Engineering, Jaguar Land Rover, said: “The infotainment experience in our best-selling compact SUVs has been transformed with the introduction of our new electric vehicle architecture and Pivi infotainment. New hardware and software mean the Range Rover Evoque is more digitally connected than ever. Our customers can now benefit from a system as responsive and easy to use as a smartphone, which actually improves over time, thanks to Software-Over-The-Air updates.”

Customers can now even check the quality of the air in the cabin via the touchscreen by activating the smart all-new Cabin Air Filtration system ΔΔ to filter out harmful fine particulate matter often found in cities and high-traffic areas. The all-new system – introduced in addition to the existing Cabin Air Ionisation feature – filters out fine particulate matter, allergens, pollen, and even strong smells. The system can filter ultrafine particulates (up to and even below PM2.5). Occupants simply select ‘Purify’ mode to activate the system, which filters and continually monitors the air inside the cabin relative to the air outside. The touchscreen offers reassurance that the air within is cleaner than the air outside.

Other technology updates include a comprehensive suite of new Advanced Driver Assistance features for the Evoque, which achieved a five-star Euro NCAP rating. The new Rear Collision Monitor uses radars to constantly monitor the vehicle’s rear, meaning the vehicle is primed to reduce the severity of an impact for the occupants, while the introduction of a 3D Surround Camera lets the driver see what’s happening around the vehicle at speeds of up to 19mph, making maneuvering and even navigating difficult terrain simpler than ever.

HAMANN launching beautiful Evoque Convertible tuning pack

Tuners customizes thoroughly the challenging SUV

Range Rover Evoque Convertible was initially rather a suspicious project. However, the SUV looks strangely charming and waves at those of you who are not afraid to express their individuality. HAMANN Motorsport has actually worked on this arty vehicle and has recently released a refinement package worth ones attention. The result, the Evoque Convertible becomes immediate eye-catcher.

Being the world’s first open SUV, this is kind of tempting project to work on. The refinement pack made by the tuner enhances the stylish character of the vehicle and makes it even more inviting. Basically, it comprises of brand-new aerodynamics components, which also offers wide body option, high-quality wheel/tyre combinations, fine accessories, and power enhancement.

HAMANN’s alternative to the standard versions is least to say attractive. Replacing the good by the better, the experts added new front skirt for the Evoque Convertible, two-part grille, new and more sophisticated air intakes on both sides, and fibre-optic daytime running lights. At the rear, there is an entirely new rear skirt that features black or silver anodized HAMANN tailpieces of the sports exhaust system.

The engine tuning supports the strong appearance. With the help of an ignition map optimization, the ED4 diesel receives considerable extra power: precisely, it jumps from 150 hp to 181 hp (110 kW to 135 kW), while the torque – from 380 Nm to 460 Nm. After the uprating, the Si4 petrol engine boasts a power advancement of 20 hp, making it to a total of 260 hp (177 kW to 191 kW) and 480 Nm instead of 420 Nm.

Well, that’s kind of nice conversion of Evoque’s little brother, isn’t it? Below, you can watch a video with the HAMANN’s project, and see for yourself how perfectly it fits on the road.

We have not one, but two important news to announce about our favorite British tuner Kahn Group. Almost every Friday the designers release a brand new project, and today is no exception. We have received the first pictures of the breath-taking Project Kahn Range Rover Evoque Dynamic Luxury Edition, which has been styled in the ways and manners of Afzal Kahn. In other words, it looks amazing and those who will be sitting inside will enjoy wide range of luxury.

Dressed in Santorini Black Metallic livery and fitted with various add-ons, the vehicles looks dramatic and powerful on the road. But besides the exterior paint scheme, there are other reasons for that. Take for instance the stunning front bumper with integrated vents or the LED daytime running lights and 3D mesh inserts that adorn the front.

As for the rear part of the Evoque, there is a rear bumper replacement as well as rear diffuser, lower boot lid spoiler and a sump guard in matt black. Not forgetting the central twin cross-hair exhaust system and the 25mm sports lowered suspension, which give the vehicle a more menacing and tough stance. We can not skip the set of 22-inch RS wheels, nor the colored brake callipers.

Kahn Range Rover Evoque Dynamic Luxury Edition interior

On the inside, the new upholstery is Black Herringbone leather but there are details in Alcantara. The dark theme is contrasted by stitching and additional offset is made by the Piano Black gear selector surround, aluminium vented foot pedals and stainless steel door entry sill plates.

Going to the next news, we have received the information that Kahn Group is starting partnership with Millennium Automotive Group. The latter is appointed as the sole Kahn distributor for Sri Lanka, so have that in mind if you are somewhere in the vicinity and are kind of impatient of buying Kahn vehicle.

They contribute for the luxurious feeling that only Kahn’s experts can add to a vehicle’s interior.

Kahn Range Rover Evoque RS Sport Shines Bright in Orkney Grey

Kahn Range Rover Evoque RS Sport comes in this beautiful grey exterior color. It also features a lot of styling upgrades for its exterior and interior. As a matter of fact, we seen this model being updated so many times, but it is never late for a better version. Even more, since it is one of the most cherished vehicles, it is always nice to see a custom-made individual variant. And here is what this one-off Evoque is about.

Exterior

Important to mention is that the exterior paint scheme of this Kahn Range Rover Evoque RS Sport is called Orkney Grey. It looks magical because it was made of highly reflective particles inside a transparent layer. As a result, this combination creates a glistening effect.

As cool as it might be, one-color for the outer shell always seems monotone and sometimes boring. This is why, the experts at Kahn Design decided to contrast the grey exterior with black elements. Precisely, the darker color has been chosen for the floating black roof stripe and mirrors. They even added several Vesuvius Orange colored components.

This Range Rover Evoque, fitted with Tech Pack, has new front and rear bumper set to show-off with. The front also gets black and silver mesh, 3-D mesh inserts and LED daytime running lights. The specialists also added 3-D mesh grille.

At the sides, the vehicle is defined by side vents, stainless steel door entry sill plates, side sill trims as well as new “shoes”. To go into details, Kahn Design fitted onto this Range Rover 20-inch Matte Gun Metal grey wheels. Behind them we see contrasting brake callipers.

At last, the new appearance of the rear is characterized by new exhaust diffuser and the sporty rear bumper. New lower trunk spoiler and classic twin cross-hair exhaust have been also installed.

Interior

Sitting behind a privacy tinted glass, the occupants will enjoy lavish leather upholstery. Precisely, the front and rear seats as well as the dashboard and transmission are covered with black leather. As a contrast, the designers used quilted stitching.

Below the waistline there are vented foot pedals in machined aluminium, diamond gear selector, stainless steel door entry sill plates and high-quality carpet floor mats.

Kahn Releases Tech Pack for the Range Rover Evoque RS Sport

After the latest projects we have seen from Kahn Design, it is now time to show you something “more ordinary”. Of course, I am not talking about the exclusivity of the vehicle here, but about the fact that it isn’t that ambitious as the Vengeance Project or the Flying Huntsman. Instead, this Range Rover Evoque has received a thorough treatment.

Exterior

Equipped with the Tech Pack, the RS Sport version of the Evoque carries a wide range of exterior styling upgrades. First I should mention the striking exterior color, which is slick Santorini Black Metallic. See how dramatic it looks?

Next, at the front there is a matte black centre bumper section accompanied by a grille with 3-D mesh and a bumper mesh in matte black and silver. The side sills are contrasted by side vent inserts and integrated vents and LED daytime running lights.

At the sides we see new Matt Gun Metal multispoke RS600 wheels that come in the dimensions of 20-inches. They have been fitted with 275x40x20 tires, behind which hide a set of brake callipers. At last, rounding out the exterior of this car is the stainless steel cross-hair exhaust system, which gives the SUV even further muscular presence.

Interior

When one steps inside the RS Sport, he or she finds out an interior dressed in quilted and perforated black leather highlighted by the contrast stitching along. Other cool elements inside are the diamond gear selector, aluminium vented foot pedals, the stainless steel door entry sill plates and the carpet floor mats.

How About an Extra Tuning for the Evoque? Yes, please!

Range Rover Evoque is one of the most wanted vehicles around the world. After the Type R, this is probably my second “dream-about” model. What makes it so attractive? It is probably up to one’s taste, but for sure when an Evoque gets a proper tuning, things really go out of control. This week, the specialists at Kahn Design have been working on this exclusive car and it now looks amazing.

Dubbed Kahn Range Rover Evoque RS250 Edition, the vehicle has been equipped with Tech Pack, but the first thing that one sees is the vibrant Volcanic Rock Satin paint. To make a contrast, the designers have made the roof black.

At the front, the Tech Pack has contributed for the new 3-D mesh grille, the inner grille with vents, headlight details, new bumper with running lights, integrated LEDs and “KAHN” lettering. The sides of the vehicle are dominated by the new sills, painted brake callipers and vents, while at the rear we see new bumper with integrated vents and a lower boot lid spoiler.

Rounding out the exterior tuning are the lowered sports suspension system, the stainless steel twin crosshair exhaust system and the 22-inch Kahn RS wheels fitted with 265x35x22″ tyres.

The interior of the vehicle is characterized by Oxblood Red Leather upholstery for the front and rear seats, centre glove box, transmission tunnel, and door arm rests. There is also a new speedometer, diamond gear selector, aluminium vented foot pedals, stainless steel door entry sill plates and heavy duty carpets.

Only those inside will benefit seeing the inner beauty of the Range Rover, since Kahn has added a privacy-tinted glass.
