Land Rover has launched the 2021 Range Rover Evoque in the U.S. with new gear and five trim levels. Prices range between US$ 43,300 and US$ 53,400 (excluding a US$ 1,050 destination and delivery charge and dealer fees) for the base S P250 and the range-topping R-Dynamic HSE P250 respectively, with all versions packing a 246 HP and 269 lb-ft (365 Nm) of torque 2.0-liter turbo-four.
For the new model year, the Evoque comes
with the new Pivi Pro infotainment system. It is underpinned by the
architecture that debuted in the new Defender, uses Snapdragon processors and
QNX operating system, and features two embedded Qualcomm LTE modems, including
one for the over-the-air updates.
Standard across the range, the
infotainment allows two smartphones to be connected via Bluetooth at once and
is highly customizable. It also features smartphone integration alongside a
water-resistant, wrist-worn Active Key, and a new wireless charging pad with
signal boosting. The British SUV can also be ordered with a new cabin air
filtration system.
Other novelties include the new
three-spoke steering wheel with capacitive buttons, revised front seats and new
interior trim. The cockpit can be upgraded with the Premium Upgrade Interior
Pack, which features illuminated treadplates, bright metal pedals, ebony
suede/cloth headliner and premium lighting.
The Advanced Driver Assistance suite of safety
gear now includes the new Rear Collision Monitor and the standard 3D surround
camera lets drivers see what is happening outside at speeds of up to 31
km/h. The systems complement the optional ClearSight Ground View4 and
ClearSight Rear View Mirror4.5 introduced last year. Two new exterior colors
have been introduced as well, the Portofino Blue and Lantau Bronze, alongside
18-inch five split-spoke glossy black wheels.
