Auto123 gets in a first drive of the 2024 Range Rover Evoque, a very likeable smaller SUV that could perhaps benefit from a light-hybrid system.
Paris, France - The Range Rover Evoque – the “baby” of the family, if you will – has been redesigned for 2024 in a bid to further establish Range Rover as a brand – and it is now a brand unto itself, and no longer simply a Land Rover model line. Plus, it wants to be a brand that can appeal to a wider customer base, one that may be a little younger and adventurous than your typical Range Rover or Range Rover Sport buyer.2024 Range Rover Evoque, profile Photo: D.
In our tester, it all comes finished in a nice open-pore shadow grey ash veneer derived from bamboo, which is great to the touch and adds a sense of warmth to the interior. There are other finishes available, but this is the way I’d go. While my tester has real leather seating, more sustainable materials like Kvadrat wool blend and a wetsuit-like ultra fabric are also available.
It’s all good but here’s the thing: remember all that de-cluttering? Well, the controls that used to be there – climate, infotainment, etc. – had to go somewhere, and the steering wheel can only accommodate so much. Cue the touchscreen display, which has gotten an additional shortcut bar on either side.
Handling-wise, the Evoque’s short wheelbase means left-to-right transitions happen in a controlled manner with less body roll than I expected. A faster steering response would be welcome, however, as well as some more feel; and these issues are compounded by the large diameter steering wheel.
