...Xenon adaptive headlights Power liftgate Heated windshield 20-inch wheels Contrasting roof colors Interior Like in Land Rover's high-dollar Range Rover, the design of the Evoque's center console gives the impression that it's extending into the upper reaches of the dashboard. Premium materials are used, and there's a twist-knob gear selector instead of a traditional shifter. Available interior features include: 8-inch touch-screen Navigation system Dual-zone automatic air conditioning Premium Meridian audio system Surround Camera System with five cameras Under the Hood The Evoque is powered...

...I was well taken care of in the front row. I enjoyed the optional heated seats and heated steering wheel. I had two cupholders within easy reach and a skinny tray that could hold a gadget. The Evoque's gearshift knob rose out of the flat center stack; yes, it was really cool. To put the car in gear, you simply turn the knob. In the instrument cluster, the Evoque shows where people are sitting. If they were buckled up, their position had a green dot on it. Not buckled up? Red dot! That's very useful for parents, Land Rover. The multimedia system is intuitive and has an 8-inch touch-screen...

2012 land rover range rover evoque Professional Edmunds Review

...In Edmunds performance testing, an Evoque went from zero to 60 mph in 7.4 seconds -- a bit slower than average for the compact luxury SUV class. However, its EPA fuel economy estimates are better than average at 18 mpg city/28 mpg highway and 22 mpg combined. Safety: Every 2012 Range Rover Evoque comes standard with antilock brakes, stability and traction control, trailer sway control, front side airbags and side curtain airbags. Also standard are parking sensors and a rearview camera. In Edmunds brake testing, an Evoque Pure with 20-inch wheels came to a stop from 60 mph in an impressive 118...

...It produces 240 horsepower and a similar amount of torque while delivering, what for Land Rover Range Rover, is a remarkable 19 miles per gallon in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. As is the case with most supercharged and turbocharged engines, premium-grade fuel remains recommended “for best performance” in the Evoque. But it is a powerful, sexy little runner — replete with Oxford leather and all other samples of traditional Land Rover luxury — that retains some economy and environmental bragging rights. In addition to improved fuel economy, for example, the Evoque...

2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Overview

...you can also add rear-seat entertainment.Inside is roomy and classy in both the front and rear seats. With its cool interior illumination, plush leather and elegant control panels, no one will think you skimped on features, even in the Pure. Passengers, especially those in the rear, will gaze in awe through its enormous panoramic glass roof. Even if you go all the way up to the Prestige, you will still end up spending thousands less than you would on a full-size SUV. (But you still can’t exactly say the Evoque is “cheap.”)SUVs can have stability and safety issues, so every Evoque...

...It's definitely more cavelike with the powered shade closed. (The shade is fabric, but it's also opaque, so it doesn't contribute to the greenhouse effect, as some mesh screens do.) Small Engine, Big Power Also new is a 240-horsepower, turbocharged direct-injection 2.0-liter four-cylinder, which moves the Evoque with authority, exhibiting little of the lag for which turbos were long dismissed. No one in his right mind would take the LR2's gravely five-cylinder over this. Aside from scooting the Evoque to 60 mph in roughly 7 seconds, it boosts EPA-estimated mileage to 18/28 mpg city/highway on...

Why should I also consider these?

Defining the niche of coupe-like luxury crossovers is no easy thing, but at least two vehicles make it their life mission.

The BMW X6 landed from its peculiar planet first, and yes, it does feel a little like a BMW underneath, but it's not much better to drive than an X5, and loses lots of interior space in the process.

The Infiniti FX strikes out on its own styling tangents, with wavelike details on its bubbly shape adding up to something a little cartoonish.

Better to compare the Evoque to the more forthright utes like Audi's heavy, not so nimble and rather plain Q5; the lovely Evoque cousin preoccupied with safety, the Volvo XC60; and even the latest BMW X3, a rorty performer with much more cabin space and much more 3-Series baked into it this time around.
