2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque User Reviews

Pros

Great looks, nice tech package, great performance on and off road

Cons

None yet

Purchased As New

I purchased the 5 Door Evoque Dynamic with MagneRide. Before purchasing this car, I test drove a Porsche cayenne, BMW X3 and Audi Q5. Keep in mind that I am coming from a BMW M6 so I wanted the X3 to be my choice so bad. What won me over the most from the Evoque is the impressive styling. The performance on road and off is a given. Simply go to YouTube and search Evoque off road and you will see its capabilities. The tech package is nice, just wish they didn’t focus on IPhone so much. I am an android/windows phone user. Some people complain about the rear view, to me it is like being in my M6 so there is no difference. I can see how it can be a hindrance if you are coming from another car or suv that does not have such a small window in the back. I am not too concerned with servicing as the service for this vehicle is every 12k miles or every year, whichever comes first. The dealership disclosed the service prices to me ahead of time and they are very reasonable for an SUV of this nature.

I will post more info as the years progress in my ownership...read morehide

Pros

Great looks, great acceleration, superb sound system

Cons

None so far

Purchased As New

We own a Dynamic Trim (which is not listed). This is a small, versatile SUV cross-over. The computer/navegation system is complicated to learn but gives you the information you need when you need it.
The sound system is superb, it allows your iPod to be the source of music plus Sirius radio plus having the ability of uploading up to 10 CD's into the system memory....read morehide

Pros

Handles great,Looks great, good gas mileage,plenty of power

Cons

No sun roof that will open

Purchased As New

I've had this for 4 months now. It runs and handles great. One review said it was sluggish on starts.....not so. Plenty of power.I like fresh air and have had a sunroof on my past Jeep Grand Cherokees. I miss that option only. This has a 5' sliding opening to a glass roof. Over all i am happy with it. Go drive one and test it for your self! Motor Trend picked it as 2012 SUV of the year. They know vehicles.....Great job Land Rover....read morehide

Pros

Looks, brakes and handling.

Cons

Lil slow out of the hole

Purchased As New

I have loved this vehicle for 5 months and finally got my hands on one. Houston Landrover group sucks first of all. They act like these are made of gold and have no common sense. They are all connected in Houston, 3 dealershps and they all blow. Tried dealing with Dallas and they were much better. Finally bought one from Florida. But it seems Land Rover has no idea of how to call anyone back, and that goes for all 3. But the car is awesome. I love the looks more than anything. It handles and rides like a sports car, but the space of a SUV. The only con i have is out of the hole the turbos take some time to kick in unless you have it in sport mode. I pulled out in front of someone in the city and thought i was going to die because it took so long to get going. I came from a infin 37s coupe. So big difference....read morehide

Biggest piece of garbage, never buy a landrover!!!! the worst brand ever. very poor customer service. run run fast and dont look back. very poor reliability

Pros

Awesome ride, extremely quick, superb looks!

Cons

Maybe a bit small - depending on what you use it for!

Purchased As New

This is one of the coolest cars I've ever owned (And I've owned 2 Audis, 4 Mercedes, 2 Landrovers, etc etc.

It's quick and tight around curves -- it really drives and feels like a sports car - and the engine sounds awesome. This is not the most practical SUV for a big family -- but if you want fun and class, this is for you. Plus the 4 cyl supercharged engine is great on gas....read morehide
