Evoque Si4 AWD (Dynamic)
Engine: 2.0L turbocharged I4
Torque: 340 Nm
0–100 km/h: ~7.1 s

In its most powerful Si4 specification, the Evoque is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four producing up to 240 horsepower and 340 Nm of torque, paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission and intelligent all-wheel drive. This setup enables a 0–100 km/h sprint in approximately 7.1 seconds—respectable for a compact luxury SUV with off-road DNA. Throttle response is brisk, and gear changes are rapid, especially in Dynamic mode.

The Evoque’s compact footprint and relatively low curb weight contribute to agile handling. The MagneRide adaptive damping system (available on Dynamic trims) enhances body control and sharpens cornering response. Steering is light yet precise, and the shorter wheelbase of the 3-door coupe version adds an extra edge of agility. While not a performance SUV in the vein of Porsche or AMG rivals, the Evoque delivers a sportier-than-expected experience, especially in tighter curves and city driving.

The Evoque’s sporty character is balanced by its luxury focus. It provides just enough dynamic ability to entertain without compromising comfort or refinement. Its sleek, concept-inspired design also gives it visual speed, making it a performance statement as much as a fashion-forward vehicle.

Body Styles

The first-generation Evoque was available in three distinct body styles: a 5-door SUV, a 3-door “coupe” (rare in the SUV world), and, later, a soft-top 2-door convertible. All variants featured a low roofline, rising beltline, and pronounced wheel arches, giving the Evoque a muscular, coupe-like silhouette. The clamshell hood, floating roof, and ultra-slim headlamps made it instantly recognizable as a modern Range Rover. Despite its compact dimensions, the design emphasized presence and individuality over cargo capacity, particularly in the coupe and convertible variants.

Model Name Meaning (Manufacturer)

“Range Rover” designates the luxury sub-brand within Land Rover’s SUV portfolio, traditionally reserved for more upscale and design-forward models. “Evoque” was chosen to evoke modernity, evolution, and emotional connection—marking a shift toward urban luxury and style-conscious buyers. It signified Land Rover’s first major entry into the compact premium crossover segment.

Model Name Meaning (Languages)

“Evoque” is a stylized derivation of the English word evoke, meaning to call forth or inspire a response. Though not a real word in English or French, it carries a soft, upscale tone with a slightly exotic pronunciation. Its phonetics align with high-end fashion and lifestyle branding, underscoring the Evoque’s design-led image and aspirational positioning.

Body & Interior Colors and Rims

The Evoque launched with a fashion-inspired range of exterior colors including Firenze Red, Fuji White, Santorini Black, Loire Blue, and Orkney Grey. Premium trims offered contrast floating roofs in gloss black, silver, or body color. Convertible models featured a fabric roof available in black or dark gray. Dynamic trims introduced bolder paint choices, gloss black exterior details, and color-coded bumpers.

Inside, the cabin combined modern materials with Range Rover luxury, including Oxford leather seats, brushed aluminum trim, and dual-tone color schemes in Ivory, Ebony, Pimento, or Tan. Contrasting stitching, ambient lighting, and a minimalist dashboard layout emphasized elegance and simplicity. Later models added a dual-screen infotainment upgrade and InControl Touch Pro system, with optional panoramic sunroof, Meridian audio, and configurable mood lighting.

Wheel options ranged from 18-inch 5-split-spoke designs to 20-inch turbine-style or gloss-black diamond-turned alloys. Dynamic and Autobiography trims received unique split-spoke sport designs with shadow chrome or satin finishes, emphasizing the Evoque’s urban style and road presence.

vs Competitors

The Evoque was positioned against the BMW X1, Audi Q3, and Mercedes GLA-Class, but distinguished itself through its design-first ethos. It offered more individuality and interior luxury, with styling and materials on par with larger Range Rover models. While the X1 and Q3 focused on space and practicality, the Evoque traded rear headroom and trunk capacity for style and premium ambiance. The convertible variant had no direct competitor, adding further exclusivity. Though not the most powerful or spacious, the Evoque offered a unique balance of urban style, light off-road ability, and prestige—particularly for buyers wanting something less predictable than the German trio.

Fun Fact

When the first-generation Range Rover Evoque launched in 2011, it became the most awarded Land Rover in the brand’s history — even before its first full year on sale. But what many people don’t realize is that its bold design was directly lifted from a concept car — the 2008 Land Rover LRX — with almost no compromise. Unlike most concepts that lose their drama before production, the Evoque retained the raked roofline, floating contrast roof, slim headlamps, and high beltline nearly unchanged, marking a rare moment where design idealism met showroom reality.

Even more unusual: the Evoque was the first Range Rover to be offered in a 3-door coupe configuration — a radical departure for a brand known for boxy, practical SUVs. This 3-door “Coupe” version, while short-lived, was marketed to urban buyers who valued aesthetics over utility, and it remains a cult favorite among collectors today. With a celebrity-led marketing campaign featuring Victoria Beckham as a design consultant, the Evoque also became the first Range Rover to target fashion-conscious luxury buyers, laying the groundwork for today’s lifestyle-led SUV market.
