Will it still have the transverse setup?

Will it still have the transverse setup?

Given the foot print of the car, that would surely be best for interior packaging and cost saving?

Smash hit’s successor will arrive in 2019 with improved comfort, more connectivity and JLR's latest engines, including a petrol-electric hybrid

Is it me or has it gotten smaller?

Especially when it's freakin' cold outside...

Ha ha ha - shrinky winky. The penile equivalent of a Range Rover Evoque!

It's probably the same size as the outgoing model. They haven't bothered making it much bigger as practicality seeking customers will be pushed towards the more expensive Velar, or downgrade to the lesser glamorous Discovery Sport.

 

[SCOTT27]

Won't a top end Evoque match price with either a entry-mid specification Velar?

At least there won't be a Beckham inspired model this time around. That take down by Gerry McGovern was brutally awesome. It's why the Beckhams have ditched Range Rovers for...................................................Bentley Bentayga's.
Appropriate?

2020 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque spy shots

Range Rover Evoque in that the vehicle eschewed serious off-roading capability in favor of a blend of design and luxury. It’s a gamble that paid off as the Evoque has attracted plenty of customers that previously wouldn’t have considered one of the British marque’s vehicles.

It’s hard to believe the Evoque has been on sale since 2012, as the vehicle is still looking and feeling fresh. Nevertheless, Land Rover is planning a second-generation Evoque and we’ve just spotted a prototype for the first time (earlier shots showed a test mule).

It’s immediately clear that inspiration for the design comes from the stunning new Range Rover Velar. The rest of the vehicle looks like the current Evoque, albeit with some of the sharper creases smoothened out. Note, the prototype is for a 5-door model and we hear there won’t be a repeat of the current 3-door.

The layout of the controls in the cabin are unchanged from the current model, though most of the actual controls seen here are still test units. Expect the Velar’s dual-screen center stack to feature in the new Evoque.

The underlying platform is Land Rover’s LR-MS platform found in the current Evoque, as well as the [URL='https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1096474_2016-land-rover-discovery-sport-first-drive']Discovery Sport. Expect the platform to be updated for the new Evoque with lighter materials and alternative powertrain capability. In fact, we hear mild hybrid and even plug-in hybrid tech will be offered.[/URL]

It doesn’t appear that there will be any significant change when it comes to the size of the new Evoque, which makes sense as the Velar is there to fill the wide gap between the current Evoque and Range Rover Sport. We’ve also heard that an all-new model could be added below the Evoque.

We’re currently expecting the new Evoque on sale in 2019, as a 2020 model.

Stay tuned for updates as development continues.

It will have flush, pop-out door handles. At this point it's easy to visualize what it will look like which is current shape car with the Velar exterior design and interior. There is no longer pressure on the Evoque to grow in size. It's not a bad thing as the proportions are excellent and it has enough utility for 95% of typical car trips.

Although I find it very pricey I think it will be a design and tech leader above the X1, X3, X40 and even the E-Pace.

The success of this vehicle is crucial to JLR. circa 100,000 units in every one of the 7 years of production...

Do you consider it a good or bad figure?

 

[tristatez28lt1]

I consider that as a good figure considering the margin.

 

[tristatez28lt1]

- turbo diesel engines between 148 and 237 PS
- gas turbo engines between 237 bis 296 PS
- 1.5L turbo with electric motor for mild hybrid version

Will this be a brand new vehicle or an extensive face-lift?

 

[tristatez28lt1]

all new.

 

[SCOTT27]

A smaller Velar-esque Evoque will work. But with the latest advances they seem to be taking the USP from the Velar away from the Velar.
