The Evoque Autobiography model is distinguished by elegant touches on the exterior and its luxurious interior. A plug-in hybrid version is also available, for those who expect their luxury compact SUV to be more compatible with sustainable development.

“The Range Rover Evoque Autobiography delivers on Range Rover's promise of sleek, sophisticated modernity inside and out. Since its launch in 2010, the Evoque's personality has turned many heads, and some elegant details like the copper color of the lettering, recalled by subtle accents on the Range Rover Evoque Autobiography, underline its refined character.

Also available in 2020, the new Evoque Nolita Edition is revealed, with a contrasting roof in Nolita Gray color. Inspired by the chic suburb of New York and based on the Evoque S, this limited series offers a selection of carefully chosen standard equipment, and is available with the P300e plug-in hybrid powertrain.

Following the launch of the P300e plug-in hybrid earlier this year, several other powertrains are becoming available on the Range Rover Evoque and Land Rover Discovery Sport.

Two four-cylinder Diesel Ingenium at the forefront of technology in terms of performance are to be discovered, both with light hybridization technology (Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle, MHEV). A belt integrated starter generator (BiSG) allows it to collect the energy usually dispersed during deceleration and braking, and to direct it to the vehicle's 48 V battery.

Thanks to this MHEV technology, the new generation 163PS two-liter Ingenium four-cylinder engine achieves CO2 emissions from 168 g / km ***** and fuel consumption from 6.4 l / 100km *****. The result is greater smoothness of the system stop and start and an optimized level of consumption.

Available in two power levels, 163 and 204 hp, these engines are more powerful and have better efficiency than those they replace, with CO2 emissions from 168 g / km ***** and a consumption from 6.4l / 100km) ***** for the Range Rover Evoque, CO2 emissions from 175 g / km ***** and consumption from 6.7 l / 100km) *** ** for the Land Rover Discovery Sport.

Discovery Sport and Evoque customers still have a wide selection of petrol engines, the P200, P250 and P300, all equipped with MHEV technology.

The Discovery Sport and the Range Rover Evoque are also the first Premium SUVs to offer a Flexfuel Hybrid engine, exclusively on the French market.

Developed 100% by Jaguar Land Rover, the technology found in the Discovery Sport and the Range Rover Evoque Flexfuel Hybrids allows them to run on Superethanol E85, but also on Unleaded 95 - E10, Unleaded 95, or Unleaded 98. It is available for P200 engines, without any other equipment constraint.

No other premium manufacturer currently offers Flexfuel Hybrids vehicles on the French market. This technology has many environmental and tax advantages, while the French automotive market faces major challenges, as recent government measures illustrate.

The travel experience in both vehicles is transformed by the new Land Rover infotainment system, dubbed Pivi. This system is ready to go the moment it's plugged in - a dedicated management system and separate battery eliminate delays. Software updates are carried out remotely and free of charge via the on-board connection system, and can also be scheduled at times that are most convenient. This ensures owners have the most up-to-date maps, applications and vehicle systems at all times without having to visit a dealership. This function, enabled by the new electrical design (Electrical Vehicle Architecture, EVA), is available either with the Pivi system, or with the more advanced Pivi Pro Connected system, which integrates navigation, from the S **** finish. **.

Streaming music and media has never been easier, with Spotify integrated directly into the infotainment menu for the first time - data included * - and Bluetooth connection for two phones at once. Also available is the induction charger with signal amplifier **. The new second-generation Leisure Key is also available; it allows the driver to lock, unlock, and even start the vehicle, simply by standing nearby. Waterproof, shock-resistant, this “key” that can be worn on the wrist now includes a digital watch.

“The infotainment on board our best-selling compact SUV is transformed by the new electric design and our Pivi system. This new software makes the Range Rover Evoque and Land Rover Discovery Sport more connected than ever. Our customers now benefit from a system as intuitive and easy to use as a smartphone, which is constantly updated thanks to remote “Software-Over-The-Air” updates. "

These new systems complement the technologies already present, such as ClearSight Ground View and ClearSight Rear View Mirror; for the first, intelligent cameras which cross their beam just in front of the wheels, while the second consists of a video screen which supplements the interior rear-view mirror to ensure rear visibility when the vehicle is heavily loaded, for example.
