These are some terrible pictures of a potentially great-looking car.

Looks like the X6 threw up...... Would be a torture chamber for anyone sitting in the back. They should have put domes over the back seats for more head space. lol who'd notice with that God Awful rear wing/spoiler.

Otherwise I like it lol

Saw these at the NY Auto Show last month. Nice in pictures (details, character lines, etc), but wasnt really impressed. Once you see it in person, you realize it is a lot smaller and lower than you think. To me it looked wierd.

looks like the concept from a few years ago. I think West coast customs did a custom Range rover that looked like this. The tech took a 4 door and turned it into a 2 door. pretty cool

Wow is that a Jaguar style circular push up shifter. Also Isn't this the Evoque going to be powered by Ford's 2.0L EcoBoost with 237hp. Knowing Land Rover this truck is gonna be heavy...

IMHO, the Evoque is the best Land Rover ever in the 21st century

I can't wait for the four-door version

Honestly, looks like it has some styling cues from a Ford Edge.

With four doors, this is what the RX should have been.
