2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Coupe - First Test

[nsxjl]

Im sorry but this is most overated brand in the world, whenever a new product comes out motoring press cant get enough of it. IT IS ABSOLUTE CRAP BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO DONT GIVE A SHIT. Landrover will cost you thousands over other brands as it will in the garage more than on the road.

[twizitz]

so sick! i dont think i could ever drive that off road though

[Atheistprimate]

I like it.

[SuperCold20]

the 2012 grand cherokee look a little bit similar

[fatty1443]

6 airbags...lol they chevy sonic has 10.

[fatty1443]

they had to use 6 different cars because they kept breaking down every 10 miles and it was cheaper just to buy a new one...

[Truemoderate]

That's a lot of money for a 4 cyc Ford engine.

[Watermox]

FUGLY

[mahballzrhari]

so navigation isn't standard for a $50k plus car? what a joke!

[Ka3aX111]

i don't like it , the previous one is better

[gaholiveira]

Meu brother, preciso desse carro!

[if7ate9]

I used to think this car was ugly looking on screen, but then I saw one in person and changed my mind. It is freakin sexy up close!

[shisug11]

5 Star!!!! till date best video of the range rover evoque...

[mozaks80]

Looks over-designed to me.

[9nosliw]

the 2 door looks so fucking sexy. I wish they made the 4 door like an fj cruiser, in that the back doors are smaller, suicide doors (open backwards)

[aptsys]

really ugly looking

[nsulademon]

The best looking range rover ever

[DraughtHaze]

It is a Range Rover not a Land Rover.

[syazrinamzar]

@DraughtHaze Land rover is the manufacturer for the evoque

[DraughtHaze]

@syazrinamzar The words RANGE ROVER are stapled to the back and front of the car.

[syazrinamzar]

@DraughtHaze Land Rover manufactures the discovery, defender, freelander, range rover, range rover sport and the range rover evoque.

[DraughtHaze]

@syazrinamzar Wikipedia can be altered by anyone who has an account with them. Your reply is invalid.

[PalleSchultz]

@DraughtHaze

If you feel unsafe about Wikipedia, go to the source a tLand Rovers own website

[122A7]

@DraughtHaze youre the most persistently uninformed person ive seen in a while.

[syazrinamzar]

@DraughtHaze goodness me, go for a fucking test drive and u can find a land rover logo at the back of the car. What a tool

[determinedskeptic]

@DraughtHaze So is the Land Rover badge, on the RHS of the tail gate...take a closer look

[DraughtHaze]

@determinedskeptic I seriously cant believe that im getting replies to that. I WAS TAKING THE PISS I ALREADY KNEW.

[syazrinamzar]

@DraughtHaze For your easiest reference, just go to wikipedia.

[fearmeyo]

@DraughtHaze you must be retarded? Land Rover is the company, range rover is a model of land rover dumbass

[rahulgosh1]

@DraughtHaze - wht a noob ur ... hahahahah ... its Land Rover and Tata owns i know because I am Indian and work with the Tata group .. go google that!!!

[DraughtHaze]

@TheDevilWearsAdidas If you think that looks gay you must be very very far in the closet.

[MrVanDay]

i kinda like it, it reminds me of the range stormer a bit.

[shapery2794]

This car is sleek and sexy.

[miennam8]

Did he say start 50k for this little car?.No thanks.

[Timx4]

The only issue is quality problems

[moderndesignworks]

Love the new futuristic look! Beautiful inside out! I like this look as much as I like the classic look.

[XxAIRSOFTCREWxX]

Worst land rover ever it looks like a storm trooper and well from £42,000'i would rather get the range rover I have the 4.2L Supercharged V8 Vouge a proper range rover

[francisalec]

i always wanted this kind of look to a car

[Annihilator1111]

the engine on the 2011-present Range Rover Evoque

Engine

2.0 L I4 petrol 240 hp (180 kW)

2.2 L I4 diesel 150 hp (110 kW) / 190 hp (140 kW)

[drewolf]

A fuel efficient Land Rover.... Thats IMPOSSIBLE!!!!

[morpheusmann]

I think it's so ugly and incomplete in the back!!

[nicknickk]

@morpheusmann Then you must be a little weird, cause the vast majority of people like its looks.

[TheTedscamaro]

i like it very much......

[pateldevang1988]

i like this car very much............

[mauroadrianoc]

Este carro é uma jóia rara

Parabéns!!!

[electrarelic]

I know this will undoubtedly get tared with the WAG Wagon brush but I don't care, its a beautiful car that seem very particle.With the frequency that the UK gets snow nowadays I wouldn't think twice about buying this car. Im a 42 year old bloke btw. Just need to save the penny's.

[MrGipsyking1234]

i like that state farm commercial, made me lol.

[oh0hMh85]

 KOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

[v1ralsh1t]

Which interior/exterior colour combination you guys think suits this car best? I really like the FujiWhite exterior with red leather interior!

[ViolentKisses87]

@v1ralsh1t yup I just personally don't care for the two tone roof option with a different paint color. But to each their own I suppose.

[amgd70]

500,000$

[MrSaadi100]

@amgd70 50,000

[xFreshKicks08]

they need a 4 door version!

[sexyboi142]

[5693252]

[TheMalilul]

good job mrs. beckham

[prs1281]

About how much does this AWESOME truck cost?

[lveratadeo]

@prs1281 $43,000

[SuperRehank]

@lveratadeo  wrong they cost 90-100k

[lveratadeo]

@SuperRehank nope starting price for the evoque coupe pure cost $43,995, evoque coupe prestige cost 52,395, and evoque coupe dynamic cost $51,495, i think your mistaken for the range rover sport, now does cost start at $80,000 , where you get your information?

[mxzysptlik]

@ManOfWealthnTaste What's really sad is that you can't go to any vids on youtube without running into racist BS...for fuck's sake talk about the cars!!!

[mxzysptlik]

I wonder what market this "SUV" is supposed to be servicing. Cause I could never see myself buying something like this...even if I could afford it lol

[Travide]

Does it only run on premium fuel?

[freakychannel123]

0:11 goat also doesnt give a shit about evoque

[Pcsplash]

أكرمني يارب

[JET997u]

The perfect off-roader for Paris Hilton when she has to go up an unpaved driveway.

[MakeLoveNoBabiez]

VERY NICE CAR and looks even better in the metal...I saw one all blacked out on the highway and i almost rear ended the car infront of me ...the evoque and the cayenne are the SUV's of my dreams....

[06522111]

I Think This 1 is ugly.

Coupe Its soo ugly look at it form the side.

Dusnt make sence at all. The back and the front.

but then i saw the 4 door saloon.

Then i felt in love.

Real Peace of art

[MakeLoveNoBabiez]

@06522111....The 2 door is Ugly but the 4 door is a REAL PEACE of ART?????whats the difference between the 2 door and 4 door in-terms of design...same shit except number of doors...massive contradiction...just close your mouth. You sound stupid!

[DJ100674]

I fell in love with this truck after seeing it in its concept form. This is the truck of my dreams.

[EPIKVip3Zz]

the 2wd option is much better if your not going off road because it can return up to 57 mpg

[05EVORS]

I seriously thought current kia optima styling when i saw commercial last night. Interior awesome. needs more boost for 300-320hp/trap 1/4 mile 100mph alot more interest

[NoCashProductions]

As nice as it looks, until I see it climb up the side of a mountain and get coated in mud, I don't think it deserves to be called a Land Rover.

[connorross28]

omg i want it!

[JimMichaels650]

Glad to see companies doing "Sporty" things with their vehicles, just how many people are going to put out the "starting at 50K" to get into one of these vehicles? I am not a fan of SUV's of any size, but really like what they've done with the look here. Still, for my 50K, I'll take a loaded HEMI Challenger SRT over this any day!

[l008comm]

I like it. But not at $50,000. You don't have many options these days, for a small SUV that's not really a minivan in disguise. Something that has some off road capability, and some towing capacity.

[beepleboop99]

I'M 13 YEARS OLD AND I HOPE THEY STILL HAVE THIS CAR WHEN I AM 18 YEARS OLD!

WHAT AN AWESOME CAR!

[aquilalegis1]

@ManOfWealthnTaste should have been "they're" not "their" the former is a contraction of "they are"

[NottinghamForest22]

Britain is full of Land Rover fanboys so these Evoques are probably going to be everywhere.

[Illmatic662]

Your Motortrend truck of the year!

[MrFishCar]

Gorgeous!

[far0ashgar]

ugly

[itscodyw]

omg I love it!!!!!

[surrency1992]

Sorry this car is ugly. It reminds me of the Nissan Juke. They tried to make it look like a mini RR sport which makes the car look odd and bulky.

[TheTugaDude]

My dad is gonna buy one of these ;)

[ThugInThaFog]

that's car is mine

[Ghanjaman420]

Hell yeah go landrover thats a beast and we need more styles like this its so badass

[MaxleeClark3]

They ruined it.......fuck you land rover

[airs2k]

$50k? And a 4 cyl.? You've got to be joking

[szakalakaka]

Ma kurtyny la pasazerow z tyłu??? i klime dla pasazerow z tyłu???

[keske968]

It's not based on the LR2 (it only shares two bolts with the LR2 that's it) and the motor is not a Ford motor.

[wil48823]

@keske968 Are you sure? I've read and heard from multiple sources that it's the same turbo4 that's in the new Explorer.

[uptownblk]

looks great but seems slow

[xipartyhardx]

@uptownblk its not built for speed..

[arguemental]

great look!

[hopplacowboy]

...why range rover why,... the style is clearly a rip off from the Infinity jeep car... it has lost all its purpose...

[sw1000xg]

Zee none WTF why can't you Stupid American retarded yank speaking fuck tards say anything correct? Xen NONE FFS or Zen none! Where the hell do you get a Z from an X?

[madcreator12]

Sorry, but I can't find any excuse not to hate this car.

[Inklebonker1]

land rover not you tooo!!! noooo its ugly!!!!!!

[skodia]

I dono what other ppl say about it, but i like it, especially the roof glass. I like this Rover!

[AvatarJizz]

stay with the LR2 never stop making it!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fdjw88]

this car is elegant!

[boycharger1]

the leather looks so cheap so a range

[johnvanos250]

$50.000 + for a 4 cylinder,no thanks.

But for fags this is the perfect poser car.

[wil48823]

@johnvanos250 What a stupid comment. As if being gay impairs a person's ability to see a piece of crap for what it is. FAIL.

[Nequetrefi11]

damn, one day i will have enough money to buy a range rover. theyre too many nice

[uwdan]

ridiculous. more bling for jersey shore trash.

[badopinion]

Sweet car but 50 large? That's tuff.

[teakbridge101]

Love the sheep walking through the camera view at 0:14

[back2back22]

i'm in love...

[DEVIL1001111]

Y THAT HAPPEN TO ROVER !!!

[enriquepaz7]

Did he really jus say $50k?? Sure it's loaded BUUUT.......

[onishchuk4]

I like the look alot but how are you supposed to see out the back? And no the cameras are not a solution.

[woofdawgg69]

Looks stupid

[hamham500]

I've sat in one of these.

Carbon fibre inside!

[NUNOPITBULL9]

mom i already know what i want 4 christmas :D

[spencer19811]

I despise this car. If there's 1 thing that would put me off buying a car it would be the fact that Victoria Beckham helped with the design. What the Fuck does she know about car design? Gay gay gay

[godzillasballs]

nice goat...GODZILLA APPROVES!!! of the goat

[godzillasballs]

nice goat...GODZILLA APPROVES!!!

[Anavengertg]

@ManOfWealthnTaste Or if they are making an accurate observation.

[presas95]

This thing is ugly! Fake. And Gay.

[spencer19811]

I despise this car. If there is one thing that would put me off buying a car it would be that Victoria Beckham worked on the design. What the Fuck does that stick insect know about designing cars. Totally ruined the brand. Gay gay gay

[superman7890]

starting at 50k?? 4 cyl for 50k???

[WellImHereNow]

@superman7890 geez its not the size of the engine its how much power it produces and how well it uses it not everything needs a v6 or v8 and get used to it with companys downsizing engine sizes will be more common its no longer the 1950s

[superman7890]

@WellImHereNow I'm aware of everyone downsizing, but for 50k I want something with a little more refinement and swag than a Ford 4 turbo. At least in the American market, ford is a new player with turbo technology.

[WellImHereNow]

@superman7890 have you test driven it to know the refinement and "swag" of the engine hmmm reviews can only give so much plus expencive 4 cylinders are common place in europe as most people care about quality of the car rather then getting as much as they can and ford a new player in turbos hahahaha not even close fords been doing them for ages here.

[superman7890]

@WellImHereNow I haven't test driven but collected my opinion from reviews of this car and the ford explorer which shares the same engine might I add. i wouldn't care if they gave us a nice turbo diesel to play with here in the states. i'm aware ford has been making turbo diesels for some time. can you please point out direct injected dohc turbo gas motor applications, aka turbo technology? I care about "quality" and i'll take a porsche cayenne.

[ReticentIndignation]

@superman7890 Quality? From what I can tell the Evoque does evoke quality. Doesn't look cheaply built to me at all. Comparing the Porsche Cayenne is a little silly as well. Much larger, heavier, less efficient vehicle (not to mention the cost).

Unsure what you mean by swag. The Evoque isn't some lackluster turd you see on just any streetcorner. I for one prefer it's looks and its size over the Cayenne (although beauty is in the eye of beholder). I'd rather not drive a bloated boat (Cayenne).

[superman7890]

@ReticentIndignation I was referring to the quality of the drive-terrain specifically and Land Rover's are notorious for mechanical problems. It isn't silly to compare this vehicle to a Cayenne as they are price competitors (v6 cayenne starting at 48k) and marketed towards similar people. The "bloated boat" of a cayenne could teach the evoque a thing or two both on and off road.

[superman7890]

If you want to talk efficiency, the new cayenne's are the most efficient to date with 8 sp autos, auto start stop, and 'lighter' than the previous model. Also don't forget to look at combined mpg between these two vehicles, hardly any difference.

[4RINGSS5]

@superman7890 are you kidding? in terms of mpg, cayennes are rated at 15-16/22 (24 for the hybrid). i'm sure these figures factor in stop/start and any fuel-saving measures. the evoque achieves 18/28, which is a pretty substantial difference. the cayenne is nice and all but it is not an efficient car by any standards. the evoque is almost as efficient as a lexus rx hybrid.

[ReticentIndignation]

@4RINGSS5 C'mon man, the hybrid starts at nearly 70,000$. And the hybrid yeilds 24mpg highway. Is it even fit to be called a hybrid (I understand that it may be due to the drive train)? It's not even a plug in hybrid is it? Doesn't appear to be from what I can tell on Porsche's website. I wonder what the curb weight of the hybrid is.

I'm not downing Porsche or the Cayenne, but for me, the Cayenne is just not what I'm looking for. The size and packaging of the Evoque is what I'm after.

[4RINGSS5]

@superman7890 the evoque and cayenne are not price competitors at all. an evoque starts at $43,995. a cayenne starts at $48,300, and add $3,000 for an automatic transmission. and don't even get me started on porsche optional equipment. a well equipped evoque can be had for $50K or less. the evoque competes with Q5s, X3s and GLKs. the cayenne competes with RR Sports, MLs and X5s.

[superman7890]

@4RINGSS5 cayenne w/ tiptronic is 16/23 which averages to 19; 18/28 averages to 22 straight from USDOE...Which brings me to Land Rover's "starting price" of 44k for the pure package. Choose either prestige or dynamic and the price balloons to 52k, cayenne territory. At this price point, whats 3mpg?

[4RINGSS5]

@superman7890 the combined fuel economy of the evoque is 23mpg and that is directly from LR's website. that's 4mpg more than a cayenne's combined fuel rating. 4mpg is substantial. i don't know how you can say it's not. and with a $52K evoque you get a pretty well, almost fully equipped car. with a $52K cayenne, you get an automatic transmission. add a couple thousand for gps. another couple hundred for a mf steering wheel. another couple hundred for heated seats. you get the point.

[ReticentIndignation]

@superman7890 The Evoque is not meant to compete with the Porsche Cayenne.

I'm a future prospective buyer of the Evoque. I would not have considered the Porsche simply due to it's size and weight (near 700lbs difference). I like the fact that the Evoque is obviously smaller and drives like a smaller vehicle. The Evoque is more efficient as well as far as MPG. Car and Driver magazine doesn't even list the Cayenne as a direct competitor. New Cayenne's compared to old ones don't concern me.

[andrewbthomson]

this does not deserve to have the range rover badge. its even worse than the sport! nothing they do will ever come close to the range rover classic. they should of quit while they were ahead and not disgreased themselves with this pathetic exuse for a 4x4. btw even though the word looks like "chassis" its said like "shassy" (not that im any pro at spelling but you sound like an idiot)

[mxaxh1]

Look and see what happens 0:11, LOL :)

[OTKSenior]

crack pipe

[imheren0w]

wtf. a land rover should never be this round looking. land rovers are suppose to be boxy and have that commanding presence. the rounder an suv looks, the more effeminent it is.....

[AccordGTR]

@imheren0w boxy is old school. round looking means better aerodynamics and structural integrity. You see it in F1 cars and modern Eurocars like BMW's and Porsches. Gone are cars with straight edges cuz computers now design cars to be better and more efficient

[order9066]

@TheBadRespawn Not likely. TopGear is funded by british taxpayers, Motortrend is financed by capitalism and free enterprise. And the best part about Motortrend is that the they speak American English. If TopGear is so wonderful, let's see it survive without the queen's dole. Did you know british citizens have to pay a tax just to watch over the air television?

[cass2chk]

Car design is best only through the eyes of its creators. It doesn't carry the design taste of the majority consumers. Public needs a car that is smart enough to carry your needs from your home to your destination safely and comfortably. Give us HDDs that carry programs for navigation, music, and the senses of the car itself- user friendly for upgrades and electronic connections. Don't treat public consumers idiots.

@ManOfWealthnTaste cuz ur white neighborhood lost its value in houses, either tht or there're rlly rich

[brindabellaoffroad]

So gay... So shit off road.

[Anavengertg]

@ManOfWealthnTaste Why are cowardly morons posting online instead of saying stuff in public?

[Anavengertg]

7 seconds to reach 60mph? A $5k 250 Kawasaki Ninja reaches 60mph in 6 seconds.

[Transam941]

@Anavengertg and weighs like 500 pounds. Why are you comparing a small SUV to a motorcycle?
