2022 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque review

1. Fantastic off-roader

The Land Rover name is synonymous with off-roading, so of course, the way the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque handles any terrain is a big selling point. Each model comes with 4WD, wade depth sensing, low-speed cruise control, and Land Rover's Terrain Response^® 2 system. This allows you to handle a variety of road surfaces using the appropriate mode: General Driving; Grass, Gravel, Snow; Sand; or Mud and Ruts. Alternatively, the vehicle is smart enough to automatically gauge your needs based on the surroundings and adapt appropriately.

2. New features for 2022

Land Rover has introduced multiple exciting updates for 2022. New for the 2022 Range Rover Evoque is an available engine option, which was shelved for the 2021 model but then brought back. It's a 2.0L hybrid engine with 296 hp and comes standard with the also-new HST trim. It also achieves a very respectable EPA-estimated 22 combined mpg.

Additionally, a few luxurious features became standard in 2022, including heated front seats, proximity keyless entry, power liftgate, and wireless device charging. All these updates serve to make the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque a more exciting choice than ever.

3. Long list of features

The 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque comes with a very generous roster of features, that will please even the pickiest drivers. As standard, the vehicle now comes with Android Auto^™ and Apple CarPlay^® connectivity, a 10-inch touchscreen, voice recognition, Bluetooth^® connectivity, two USB ports, and more. The 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque also comes with extensive driver aids: forward collision warning, driver attention monitoring, front and rear parking sensors, lane keep assist, traffic sign recognition, and speed limit recognition.

4. A choice of trims

There are five trim options for the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque — S, SE, R-Dynamic S, R-Dynamic SE, and HST — all of which are laden with great features. The standard engine for all except the HST is a 2.0L 246-hp turbo with a nine-speed automatic transmission. The S adds dual-zone automatic climate control and an auto-dimming rearview mirror, which is ideal for those who want to make the driving experience just a little easier. For households with multiple drivers, the SE might suit best as it adds driver's seat memory settings. The R-Dynamic S mostly just enhances the appearance to make it sportier, while the R-Dynamic SE ties those elements together with the features of the SE, making both of these trims a great choice if style is important to you. Lastly, the HST comes with the more powerful 296-hp engine if you prefer more grunt under the hood.

5. Handsome interior

The 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque is well known for being luxurious as well as practical and adventurous in nature. The materials used inside are soft and sleek, and even the base S model comes with leather seating as standard. Various optional upgrades for the 2022 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque add things like wood or metal accents to the interior, so keep an eye out for those. Plus, for added comfort and that home-from-home feel, there's plenty of space in the front with 38.9 inches of headroom and 40 inches of legroom.
