New Range Rover Evoque Live Paris 2010 - girls will like this car

Range Rover Evoque has perhaps the most striking appearance among asphalt SUVs premium brands. Is it fair to call it a "coupe"? Perhaps, amid Mercedes GLK he really would look exactly like touring coupe in the background: "Englishman" by almost 18 cm shorter than the "German" and 6 cm below. However, it is expected that next year will have Evoque and five-door version, which, judging from the spy shots, taken at the extended platform.

The quality of materials in the cabin and the wealth of equipment, few can compete with small Reyndzh Rover. In the center console built a display that can show different (!) Image driver and front passenger. One thing - the navigation, another - the movie. And it's a full home theater on wheels: the cabin dispersed 17 speakers.

For those who want it hot, it is recommended to take the version with 240 horsepower gasoline engine (2 liter turbo). However, this is not a record for power in the classroom. At Audi Q5 is a modification with 3,2-liter "six" (270 hp), BMW X3 and the new generation got 306-horsepower engine. Here's a really fast crossover!

The fact that the famous "non-road" mark the first time begins to produce front-wheel drive versions, in general, is no longer a sensation. Such Freelander presented in August. For a glamorous Evoque it even more logical. Although front-wheel drive will have only the basic versions. A 190 - and 240-hp version - only four-wheel drive.
