  • Enhanced exterior design and interior finishes boost Evoque’s physical presence and appeal
  • On sale from September 2015
From September, Land Rover’s fastest-selling model, the Range Rover Evoque will be available with a range of new design features and technologies that deliver better efficiency, lower running costs and an enhanced ownership experience.
New for 2016 Model Year, the EU6-compliant four-cylinder Ingenium engine delivering up to 68mpg for the eD4 2WD will be available to customers.  Designed, engineered and manufactured in the UK, Land Rover's advanced diesel engine boasts a class-leading combination of performance, refinement and efficiency.

Also for 2016 Model Year, Land Rover is offering customers even greater opportunity to personalise their Evoque with an increased range of standard and optional equipment.  From September, customers can select from SE, SE Tech, HSE Dynamic, HSE Dynamic Lux and Autobiography variants.
The Exterior design of the Evoque has been updated with carefully selected revisions including a new front bumper, two new grille designs, all-LED headlamps (optional), tailgate spoiler and three new alloy wheel designs. Inside, a new seat design sits amongst a refreshed interior scheme available in a selection of new colours and materials providing even more luxury. Land Rover’s new infotainment system, InControlTM Touch is also introduced from September providing an enhanced user experience accessed via an eight-inch touchscreen, with a range of new applications and driver aids available. A new Gesture Control feature is available for the first time on a Land Rover permitting the user to open the tailgate hands-free for effortless access to the boot space.
UK Pricing starts from £30,200 on the road to include new features as standard including Lane Departure Warning, Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), heated eight way adjustable front seats, powerfold door mirrors, automatic headlamps, rain sensing wipers and automatic climate control in addition to the previous 15MY specification.
New engines
The new aluminium Ingenium diesel engine brings class-leading efficiency, making the Range Rover Evoque the most efficient production Land Rover ever. The new TD4 engine, 20-30kg lighter than its predecessor with stiff cylinder blocks and decoupled injectors ensures low levels of vibration and noise intrusion and is available in two power outputs. The  150PS (eD4 2WD) offers fuel economy of up to 68mpg and class-leading CO2 emissions of 109g/km, while the potent 180PS unit offers 59mpg and CO2 emissions from 125g/km. The 150PS unit is 18% more fuel efficient versus the Evoque’s previous diesel engines.
A range of advanced features have been applied to the Ingenium engines to ensure outstanding environmental performance, including variable valve timing and a series of low friction technologies. Selective catalytic reduction and a new low-pressure exhaust gas recirculation system significantly reduces NOx emissions.
Service intervals for the TD4 engine have been extended from 16,000 miles to 21,000 miles to reduce running costs.

The 2016 Model Year Evoque is also offered with Land Rover’s existing advanced 240PS Si4 petrol engine. Delivering strong performance, Si4 derivatives can accelerate from 0-100km/h (0-62mph) in just 7.6 seconds and achieve a top speed of 217km/h (135mph) and return fuel economy of 36mpg (7.8 l/100km) and CO2emissions of 181g/km.
Efficient Capability
The revised Range Rover Evoque will be the first Land Rover to feature the ‘E-Capability’ insignia. The most efficient models will wear a blue ‘Evoque’ badge, applied to the eD4 109g/km (coupe) and 113g/km (five-door) 2WD derivatives.
Advanced Technology
The range of improvements engineered into the 2016 Model Year Range Rover Evoque includes a series of new convenience features with the InControlTM Touch infotainment system providing a more intuitive experience.
InControlTM Touch is fitted as standard equipment on SE and SE Tech models, featuring easy-to-navigate menus and allowing users to swipe between screens just like a smartphone. InControlTM Apps allow owners to access many popular smartphone apps using the centrally-mounted eight inch touchscreen.
InControlTM Touch Plus, is standard on HSE Dynamic and Autobiography. This system comprises HDD-based navigation, optional rear-seat entertainment system with a pair of eight-inch video screens with wireless digital headphones and a choice of 11 or 17 speaker Meridian audio system.
An innovative gesture tailgate function also adds a new dimension to the convenience of Evoque ownership. It allows owners to automatically open and close the tailgate by waving a foot beneath the rear bumper. The handy feature is even compatible with a tow bar and greatly improves access to the luggage space when returning to the vehicle with bags of shopping.
Wheels and Paint
From September, 12 different wheel designs will be available ranging from 17” to 20“ in a range of styles and finishes. New for SE Tech (and cost option for SE) is an 18” 7-spoke sparkle finish wheel.  An additional 19” wheel design option is available for HSE Dynamic and HSE Dynamic Lux (also a cost option for SE Tech). A new 20” sparkle finish design option can be specified for SE Tech, HSE Dynamic and HSE Dynamic Lux.
During 2016 Model Year a choice of 13 exterior paint colours will be offered. The pallet includes two new colours, Baltoro Ice metallic and Waitomo Grey premium metallic.
