Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Prestige SD4

Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Prestige SD4

The Prestige variant is available with 2.2 litre SD4 turbo diesel engine technology that generates 190 Ps of power at 3,500 rpm and 420 Nm of maximum torque at 1,750 rpm. It is also integrated with 6-speed automatic transmissions including drive select, paddle shift, xenon LED signature lighting and push button start. Range Rovers’s most vibrant looking model – the Evoque has completed one year in vehicleion. It was only twelve months ago, when the first vehicle rolled off the vehicleion line at its Halewood manufacturing facility in the UK and during that time it had generated an exceptional market response with more than 18,000 advance orders from customers worldwide. Since then the demand for this SUV has just been growing with almost 80,000 units being sold in just nine months. Without internet connectivity, there's a limit to how fancy the Evoque's navigation system is going to be. There's no HD Traffic service, no Google searching or Send to Car. What you do get is a pretty comprehensive offline navigation system that supports seven-digit postcode. What you'd hope for, then, is for something simple but extremely easy to use. At first glance, you get just that. The maps are clean and unfussy and there's a split screen mode to help you track both your overall position from a bird's eye view while you negotiate a trick junction with a close-i view on the other side. Settings up Bluetooth on the Evoque is smooth and slick. It not only allows for handsfree telephony, including phonebook support. It also does music streaming including track data. You also have the option of hooking up devices via the USB and line-in ports located in the centre arm rest. The USB port supports iPod and iPhone for easy access to your music library via the touchscreen. The line-in or auxiliary port, meanwhile, provides a failsafe that works with any devices with a headphone jack. The interface is also well presented and logical, albeit on a screen of modest resolution and quality. However, there are one or two areas where the Evoque's in-car kit both surprises and disappoints. On the downside, the navigation is pretty clunky. The lack of internet connectivity and apps leaves the whole platform feeling a little dated and out of step with the Evoque's stunning, futuristic styling.
