Evoque helped us to define our brand and establish how it is positioned. That says a lot about where the Range Rover can go in the future. In terms of historical,  Land Rover is known for developing new market segments, or at least change the direction of Land Rover models. Think of the first Range Rover, the Range Rover Sport or Freelandar. We are optimistic that they will do the same thing with Evoque,” said Phil Propham, Land Rover boss.
