Whitley, UK, 23rd February 2015 Land Rover has strengthened its
fastest-selling model, the Range Rover Evoque. The luxury compact SUV
features a comprehensive range of new design features and technologies
to reinforce its status as the market leader.

Range Rover Evoque's cutting-edge exterior design has been further
enhanced with a selection of carefully chosen revisions. These updates
include a new front bumper, two new grille designs, all-LED headlamps
and three new alloy wheel designs. These changes will enhance Evoque's
unique design to a broad range of customers.

Interior changes include new seats and door casings, new infotainment
system, accessed via an eight-inch touchscreen, and the introduction
of new colour and materials such as Lunar Ice, Vintage Tan and Dark
Cherry (Autobiography only) complementing Evoque's bold architectural
forms.

Land Rover's advanced new diesel engine also debuts. The new
EU6-compliant four-cylinder Ingenium unit brings a class-leading
combination of performance, refinement and efficiency. The
cutting-edge engine, which is designed, engineered and manufactured in
the UK, provides up to 180PS, fuel economy of up to 68mpg (4.2l/100km)
and CO2 emissions as low as 109g/km*. That makes the class-leading
Evoque the most efficient Land Rover ever produced.

Gerry McGovern, Land Rover Design Director and Chief Creative Officer
said: "The Range Rover Evoque first established and then
dominated the luxury compact SUV sector generating worldwide acclaim
and sales success. Our challenge has been to evolve the Evoque design
without diluting its distinctive character."

Jeremy Hicks, Jaguar Land Rover UK Managing Director said: "The
Evoque has proven to be an enormous success in the UK with sales of
62,000 since its launch back in 2011. Clever design, class leading
residuals and competitive cost of ownership have all been contributors
to its success.

"The 2016 model year Evoque builds on this achievement with a new
engine line up delivering outstanding CO2 emissions down to 109g/km
and for the first time; an all-wheel drive version under 130g/km. This
combined with intelligent and relevant technology will ensure that the
Range Rover Evoque is an attractive proposition to both private and
fleet & business customers."

Exterior Design
Evoque's highly desirable design is a hallmark of this luxurious
compact SUV. The introduction of the slimline LED foglamps and a
noticeably wider tow-eye cover enhance the new front bumper design.
The enlarged air intakes allude to its sporting character and create a
more planted stance and further emphasise Evoque's assertive road
presence.

Two new grille designs are available in a range of premium finishes.
Evoque's standard grille is distinguished by two bold horizontal bars
and a new fine-mesh grille pattern. Dynamic derivatives feature a
hexagonal design, and its more prominent mesh area lends a suitably
performance-oriented character to these sporting derivatives.

2016 model year Evoque is the first Jaguar Land Rover to be offered
with full-LED adaptive headlamps, providing superior visibility at
night. This advanced technology has been pivotal in creating a
signature headlamp and tail lamp design, working in harmony with
Evoque's dramatic exterior. Enhancing safety and creating an even more
striking visual statement, the indicator function is now integrated
into Evoque's distinctive LED daytime-running lights (DRLs), sweeping
across the full width of the light clusters. As an additional benefit,
energy-efficient LED technology reduces the demands placed on Evoque's
electrical systems.

Elsewhere, the distinctive bonnet vents previously fitted only to
coupé models are introduced on five-door HSE Dynamic and Autobiography
specification, bringing the sporting character of coupé to the most
versatile derivative. A new tailgate spoiler integrates a wider,
slimmer high-level LED rear brake light and optional eye-catching new
roof fins feature an integrated 3G antenna, for improved mobile phone
signal.

With three new alloy wheel designs with two finishes and an extensive
palette of exterior colours with available contrast roof designs, the
possibilities for creating an Evoque to a customer's individual
specification are now almost endless.

Interior design
New seats and door casings combined with a redesigned instrument
binnacle promote a sophisticated ambiance to the overall interior. New
premium soft-touch materials create improved levels of quality with a
broader specification range than ever before.

Standard models feature Taurus grained leather and powered eight-way
adjustment while flagship models feature new unique-in-class front
massage seats (optional) with 14-way electric adjustment. Owners can
choose from up to 12 colourways two of which are new (Lunar Ice and
Vintage Tan) while customer configurable ambient interior lighting
provides additional visual drama on the inside.

New engines
The new aluminium Ingenium diesel engine brings class-leading
efficiency to the 2016 model year Range Rover Evoque, making it the
most efficient production Land Rover ever. The new engines are
manufactured at the company's advanced new £500m Engine Manufacturing
Centre in the West Midlands, UK.

The all-aluminium Ingenium TD4 engine, 20-30kg lighter than its
predecessor with stiff cylinder blocks and decoupled injectors
ensuring low levels of vibration and noise intrusion, is available in
two power outputs: 150PS (eD4 2WD) offering fuel economy of up to
68mpg* (4.2 l/100km) and class-leading CO2 emissions of 109g/km*,
while the potent 180PS unit offers 59mpg* (4.8 l/100km) and CO2
emissions from 125g/km*. The 150PS unit is 18% more fuel efficiency
versus the Evoque's previous diesel engines.

A range of advanced features have been applied to the Ingenium engines
to ensure outstanding environmental performance, including variable
valve timing and a series of low friction technologies. Selective
catalytic reduction and a new low-pressure exhaust gas recirculation
system significantly reduce NOx emissions.

Service intervals for the TD4 engine have been extended from 16,000
miles to 21,000 miles to reduce running costs on the new lightweight
engines.

The 2016 model year Evoque is also offered with Land Rover's existing
advanced 240PS Si4 petrol engine. Delivering strong performance, Si4
derivatives can accelerate from 0-100km/h (0-62mph) in just 7.6
seconds and achieve a top speed of 217km/h (135mph), and return fuel
economy of 36mpg* (7.8 l/100km) and CO2 emissions of 181g/km*.

Efficient Capability
The 2016 model year Range Rover Evoque will be the first Land Rover
vehicle to be designated as an 'E-Capability' variant. The most
efficient models will wear a blue 'Evoque' badge, applied to the eD4
109g/km (coupe) and 113g/km (five-door) front-wheel drive derivatives,
highlighting the status of Land Rover's most efficient vehicles.

Advanced consumer-centric technology
The range of improvements engineered into the 2016 model year Range
Rover Evoque includes a series of new convenience features, with an
all-new eight-inch InControlTM Touch touchscreen infotainment system
providing a more intuitive experience.

InControlTM Touch is fitted as standard equipment on SE Evoque models,
featuring easy-to-navigate menus and allowing users to swipe between
screens just like a smartphone. InControlTM Apps allows owners to
access many popular smartphone apps using the centrally-mounted
touchscreen on the central console.

Additionally, the six-speaker stereo system can be upgraded to include
SD-card based satellite navigation, with DAB radio featuring as
standard across the range.

InControlTM Touch Plus, standard on HSE Dynamic and Autobiography, can
also be specified, comprising HDD-based navigation, a rear-seat
entertainment system complete with a pair of eight-inch video screens
and wireless digital headphones, and an 11- or 17-speaker Meridian
audio system.

An innovative hands-free tailgate function also adds a new dimension
to the convenience of Evoque ownership. It allows owners to
automatically open and close the tailgate by waving a foot beneath the
rear bumper, whilst not compromising security. The handy feature is
even compatible with a tow bar and greatly improves access to the
luggage space when returning to the vehicle with bags of shopping.

Class-leading capability
The 2016 model year Range Rover Evoque's class-leading capability has
been enhanced by the introduction of Land Rover's innovative
All-Terrain Progress Control (ATPC), first seen on the Range Rover and
Range Rover Sport.

The stress-reducing technology maintains a pre-determined speed
(selected using the cruise control function) in forward or reverse
gears between 1.1mph and 19mph (1.8km/h to 30km/h), allowing the
driver to concentrate on negotiating tricky terrain. ATPC makes
Evoque's class-leading off-road capability more accessible and
enjoyable than ever.

Safety features
A range of innovative new features enhance 2016 model year Evoque's
comprehensive array of safety features. Lane-Keeping Assist uses the
stereo digital camera to prevent unintended lane changes by monitoring
road markings. If the vehicle begins to drift into an adjacent lane
without the driver signalling beforehand, Lane-Keeping Assist applies
a gentle steering correction to maintain its lane position.

Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) prevents or greatly reduces the
severity of accidents in the event of the driver failing to take
preventative action.

Using an advanced forward-facing stereo digital camera, the system can
identify potential hazards ahead. If a collision risk is detected, the
driver is alerted by visual and audible prompts and, if the driver
fails to take evasive action, the system helps to avoid collisions
below 32mph (50km/h), and reduces the severity of an impact at speeds
below 50mph, (80km/h).

Attention Assist Estimation completes the trio of advanced new safety
systems fitted to 2016 model year Evoque. It monitors steering inputs
to detect when a driver is at risk of falling asleep at the wheel.
Audible alarms and visual warnings signal when drowsiness is
detected.

Evoque: the most desirable luxury compact SUV
The 2016 model year Evoque's trim levels have been realigned to match
those of the Range Rover Sport so customers have the choice of three
highly-desirable models: SE, HSE Dynamic and Autobiography.

More than 400,000 Evoques have been produced globally since its
introduction in 2011 making the premium compact SUV the
fastest-selling Land Rover of all time. Last year, 2014, marked the
Evoque's most successful year to date, with 125,364 global sales.

This sales success has been accompanied by critical acclaim, as Evoque
has won more than 165 international awards since launch. The hugely
successful model will also be the most efficient car in its class when
deliveries begin in August 2015, in over 170 markets worldwide.

Specific pricing by market will be announced closer to launch.
Indicative pricing for the 2016 model year Range Rover Evoque will be
comparable with the current model.
