Aligning the autos

Style is the Range Rover Evoque’s strongest suit. The original model launched in 2011 was to SUVs as the Audi TT was to coupes back in the 1990s - a car that made all its rivals instantly look very dreary and unimaginative. The second generation Evoque arrived in 2018, and while it dropped the rakish three-door model and unusual convertible, it’s a more complete product overall.
Once again it’s well-styled inside and out, and while the style does mean it sacrifices some practicality compared to more conventionally-shaped SUVs, it’s still useful enough, and being a product from Land Rover, it’s far better off road than you’d expect - or indeed, far better than you’re ever likely to need. New or used it’s a highly desirable SUV, and its popularity means there’s plenty of choice on the used market.
If eyecatching styling and a strong image are two of your main priorities in an SUV, then it’s hard to beat the Range Rover Evoque. The original model looked like it had driven straight off a motor show stand, while the latest 2019-on cars take that style and refine it. It’s a more rounded car than its predecessor, and not just in terms of its bodywork.
All the usual Range Rover cues are there, from genuine off-road ability (that most owners will never get close to using) to a stylish, somewhat minimalist cabin design, and a seating position that’s higher than a lot of similarly-sized rivals, if not quite as lofty as you get in the full-sized Range Rovers. Interior space is impressive too, though the slim windows mean it feels a little tighter than some more conventionally-shaped alternatives.
It feels like a luxury car to drive too. Ride and handling are both impressive, and it’s more refined than the old model - especially in the plug-in hybrid P300e, which can run on electric power for more than 30 miles, making urban driving a breeze. There’s plenty of equipment too, everything from off-road modes like Terrain Response, to luxury car comfort and convenience features.
Rivals for the Evoque include everything from Audi Q3s, BMW X3s and Mercedes-Benz GLCs, to the sporty Alfa Romeo Stelvio and the Porsche Macan, the latter with probably an even stronger image than the Range Rover. If you can’t quite stretch to the current Evoque either, the pre-2019 models are still well worth a look, and still look sharp on your driveway.
There’s an argument to be made for sticking with the entry-level D150 diesel engine, front wheel drive, and the basic trim level - after all, you still get the Evoque’s style and general feel, and it’s the most affordable way into the range. However, most buyers will happily spend more to get something a little better-equipped and more glamorous, better matching the larger and more prestigious Range Rovers. Engine-wise then we’d go for either the D200 or the mid-range petrol P250 as a good starting point for performance and economy - or, if you can afford it and have somewhere to charge, enjoy the part-time electric running of the P300e. In terms of trim, look at R-Dynamic and upwards - though the range-topping Autobiography is probably overkill.

Land Rover changes the Range Rover Evoque’s trim levels fairly regularly so the models listed below may not represent the current range, but they’re a representative selection of the kind of cars you’ll find on the used market.

As the current generation Evoque was launched in 2019, it’s always been subject to a flat rate of VED or ‘road tax’. If the Evoque you’re looking at cost under £40,000 brand new, then it’ll attract a bill of £190 per year, but models over £40,000 get a surcharge, lifting the tax bill to £600 until the car’s seventh year on the road. The plug-in hybrid P300e is £10 cheaper.
You’ll find the current Range Rover Evoque in insurance groups 26-40 depending on the engine and trim level. That’s actually a little lower than its predecessor, which was in groups 28-43, and it’s lower than the groups 35-50 of a Porsche Macan, though the Porsche’s engine lineup is biased more towards high performance.
