Thoughts On The 2020 Range Rover Evoque India Launch

The 2020 Range Rover Evoque borrows a lot of design inspiration from its larger sibling, the Velar — once adjudged as the ‘most beautiful car of the year'. The new Evoque will be offered at a slight premium compared to the pricing of the current model while taking on rivals such as the Mercedes-Benz GLC, Volvo XC60, BMW X3 and Audi Q5 in the Indian market.
