Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 5-Door

The exciting 5-Door version of the all-new Range Rover Evoque makes its global public debut at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show on November 17, 2010.

With its stylish and sporting appearance, enhanced by extra practicality and greater family appeal, the 5-Door Range Rover Evoque joins the stunning coupé model to create a highly desirable line-up that will transform the premium compact SUV segment.

Like the coupé, the 5-Door Range Rover Evoque remains faithful to the spirit of the groundbreaking Land Rover LRX concept car, offering an innovative new interpretation of the original cross-coupé design.

The 5-Door Evoque also stays true to the core values of the Range Rover brand, providing premium levels of craftsmanship, luxury, performance and renowned Land Rover all-terrain capability, but in a more compact package.

"The addition of the 5-Door to the Range Rover Evoque line-up extends the appeal of our brand still further," said Land Rover's Managing Director Phil Popham.

"While retaining everything that's great about the Range Rover Evoque coupé, this new 5-Door bodystyle will offer customers even more choice, greater practicality, versatility and flexibility. The launch of the Evoque in 2011 will expand and revitalise the global appeal of the Range Rover marque."

With the same compact footprint and advanced technologies as the coupé model, the 5-Door Range Rover Evoque reinforces Land Rover's commitment to environmental sustainability. The Evoque is positioned as the smallest, lightest, most fuel-efficient Range Rover ever.

Auction: Range Rover Up for Help for Heroes Charity

Land Rover decided to celebrate its one millionth Ranger Rover by donating the millionth SUV to the Help for Heroes charity.

"Land Rover is very proud to support the Help for Heroes charity by donating the one millionth Range Rover," said Phil Popham, managing director of Jaguar Land Rover. "The vehicle will be auctioned later this year and should raise valuable funds for the practical and direct provision of aid for wounded service people and their families."

Although it isn't an actual Autobiography Black edition, the millionth Range Rover built is, ironically, a fully-loaded Autobiography model painted black. Retail pricing for such a vehicle is roughly £85,000 ($138,000), but it's estimated the car could fetch more than £100,000 ($162,000) when it crosses the auction block -- aided perhaps by the fact that the SUV was delivered to and driven briefly by Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson.

"We're delighted that Land Rover has chosen to give Help for Heroes their millionth Range Rover," said Bryn Parry, CEO and co-founder of Help for Heroes, in a prepared statement. "This is a real milestone in their history and a very special donation, made even more special by knowing the money raised from the car will be able to provide much needed funds to help our wounded [veterans] on their road to recovery."

2010 LA Auto Show: Land Rover evokes More Ranger Rover Evoque Images

Automakers love to tease. Case in point: newly released shots of Land Rover's Range Rover Evoque compact SUV. 

The cute 'ute, formerly known as the LRX, was unveiled in coupe form at Paris, but the five-door Range Rover Evoque is a natural step for the purveyor of large, luxurious SUVs. To clear extra interior space for its people-carry intentions, the five-door version is 1.2 inches taller inside the cabin (thanks to a higher roofline) and over 2 inches wider to gain more shoulder room. Like the crossover-coupe design, this Land Rover is intended for four total occupants.

Other than the additional interior space, the Evoque five-door shares the same powertrain configurations. Motivation comes from a 2.2-liter diesel four-cylinder with either 148 or 187 horsepower; the gasoline option is a Ford-sourced 2.0-liter EcoBoost inline-four developing 237 horsepower. Front- and all-wheel drive will move the wheels.

Because it bears the Land Rover badge, the Evoque must carry some semblance of off-road utility. The company's Terrain Response system assists on loose surfaces while an optional Adaptive Dynamics with MagneRide dampers help on tarmac. Interior appointments do not disappoint as the usual luxury features will be found, including leather, metallic surfaces, full-size panoramic glass roof, surround cameras, and advanced entertainment systems.

First look video: 2011 Jaguar XJ

We drive over 100 new cars each year here at the track. Most of them are perfectly pleasant. Some are downright nice, while a handful get banished to the outer edges of the parking lot once the test miles are done. But not that many cars are exactly what I’d call special.

Jaguar’s luxury flagship sedan, the XJ, qualifies as special. You might argue that any car with a sticker price of $81,575 should be special, but that isn’t always the case.

What makes the big cat stand out? Previous XJs had traditional styling; you couldn’t tell if the car was brand new or 15 years old. This time Jaguar broke from the past with an eye-catching sleek new design. It inspires some controversy, especially in back, but it also gets attention.

The bespoke cabin has more universal appeal. It’s simply a cut above what you find in mass-produced cars, even luxury liners like the Lexus LS and Mercedes S-class. The suede headliner is lovely, leather covers the dash, and there are even fold-down tray tables on the front seatbacks.

Finally, the big Jaguar is a joy to drive. Several of us think it drives the way the BMW 7-Series used to drive (but does no more): nimble, light on its feet, and very responsive. Somehow we’re managing to make do with our car’s sweet-sounding base 385-hp V8; a supercharged version is available.
