Range Rover has lifted the curtains off its new convertible. Yes, a
convertible SUV, the Evoque. The company has billed the Evoque convertible as
the world’s first luxury SUV convertible and it looks stunning.
The Range Rover
Evoque convertible looks stylish and sophisticated and the fabric roof
certainly does not look out of place. The roof can be raised in 21 seconds and
folded away into the boot in a mere 18 seconds, even when on the move. However,
that can be done only at speeds up to 48kmph.
The Range Rover Evoque convertible gets rollover bars
that are stowed in the rear bodywork and deploy in 90 milliseconds in case the
vehicle rolls over. Traditionally, convertibles are a compromise when it comes
to boot space, but the Evoque offers 251 litres of it with the roof folded
down. The Range Rover Evoque convertible also gets a new 10.2-inch touch
screen infotainment system that makes its debut in this SUV. It provides
seamless smartphone integration, 3G connectivity and an intense sound
experience, says Range Rover.
Range Rovers have always been associated with off-road
capability and the company assures that the Evoque convertible is as capable
off-road as its hard-top sibling. It gets Range Rover’s Terrain Response System
and Wade Sensing (helps during water crossing) features that lend it with
serious off road cred.
Although our weather is not conducive for convertibles,
Range Rover may get the Evoque convertible to India soon after the global
launch.
