Range Rover Evoque concept

Rarely have we seen the productionization of a true concept car as successful as Julian Thomson’s Land Rover LRX’s metamorphosis into the Range Rover Evoque.

“It’s literally a case of it being a little narrower, adding 20mm on the hood, 20mm to the roof and giving it door handles,” said design director Gerry McGovern. The biggest change is not in its design, but branding: “It became clear that, as we developed it with its emphasis on jewel-like qualities, it needed to be a Range Rover” added McGovern.

The details are – for the most part – befitting of the shift upmarket, while endowing the car with a genuinely youthful, modern character. The exterior stands out more for its dramatic proportions and crisp graphics than its detailing however. Its stance is exceptional; the sharply rising beltline and falling roof are significant departures for the brand DLO, its glass-to-body ratio drastically reduced compared to any previous Range Rover, endowing the Evoque with a most dynamic look.

This also significantly alters the way its occupants are framed and perceived from outside. Range Rovers have long conveyed a sense of floating above the morass, with the proportion of glass creating airiness inside and a framing of the driver to the outside that was unique. The bunker-like, gun-slit, approach here is new to Range Rover and is extreme, even in comparison to muscle cars and coupes. It virtually hides the driver, while making it impossible for rear passengers to be seen (or to see out).

The interior is more of a departure when compared to the concept, McGovern suggesting, “The concept might have been a bridge too far. In retrospect it wasn’t as appropriate in terms of its luxury execution or in terms of today’s contexts.” He’s referring to the technology-orientated approach of the concept, refined here to leave an uncluttered IP with trademark Range Rover switchgear and architecture.

While many will bristle at the West Coast trustafarian college girl image this new type of Range Rover so readily embraces, the extension of the brand makes sense. That it’s been executed so well makes it a candidate for production car of the show.

Range Rover Sport Trio from Project Kahn

British tuning firm Project Kahn has presented its 2011 lineup of modified Range Rover Sport models, which comprise three variants featuring select exterior and interior appointments, plus some performance upgrades.

The diesel-powered Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 RSE Signature Edition is the entry-level model of the range, and it comes with a comprehensive exterior styling package that includes new bumpers, a roof spoiler, twin mesh front grille and side vents, complemented by 22-inch Kahn RSL alloys. Inside, the Signature Edition gets front headrests clad in twin mesh, Kahn gauges and clock, inserts with Swarovski diamonds, stainless steel sill plates and a leather key ring.

The finishing touch is a Project Kahn Acoustic Supersound four-pipe exhaust system, said to emit a “unique deep rumble sound”.

Next up is the more aggressive Range Rover Sport RSE300 Cosworth, which, besides being fitted with the Signature Edition bodykit, also features a so-called painted floating roof, LED daytime running lights, a boot spoiler and 22-inch RS Matte Pearl Grey wheels. According to the tuning firm, a Cosworth engine conversion is responsible for a noticeable power increase.

The RS600 is the range-topping model and it features a 6-piece bodykit, integrated LED lights and custom wheels. The interior is covered in high-quality perforated and quilted leather, complemented by contrasting stitching applied to the steering wheel and gear shifter. Other appointments include the blue Kahn gauges and clock, plus a leather key ring..
