It’s not as fuel-efficient as we’d hope for a hybrid, and there’s an annoying lack of buttons inside—but the pluses outweigh the minuses for this fun luxury urban SUV.
Evoque changed Land Rover forever. Before its launch in 2012, the 4x4 maker's SUVs were attractive, but in a functional, boxy sort of way. After it, the British brand was as much about the latest trends and fashion as off-roading and country estates.
This iteration comes in four different models; Range Rover Evoque S, Dynamic SE, Dynamic HSE, and finally Autobiography, all of which have a plug-inoption. WIRED got its hands on the top-end Autobiography model on a brand-hosted drive in the Champagne wine region in the northeast of France. But will it be a vintage year for JLR?
Speed-capturing cameras placed within the headlights pick up speed warning signs, instantly letting you know what speed you should be going on any given road. However, when driving down the freeway, the cameras would occasionally pick up side road signs, and in doing so show an incorrect reading on the dash.The interior is where we see the big changes.
The brand’s operating system is excellent. The menus are easy to navigate, and you don't have to do too much unnecessary diving to find key functions. The screen is quick and sharp, but it can get hot. And the loss of that lower screen means a smartphone charging pad has been added along with some handy storage.But it's not all good news.
