Do you think they’ll let me ask how closely connected the Stormer & Evoque really are!  As I’ve been told, there’s really no connection, I guess it’s just a lot of coincidences?  Geoff Upex, please contact me!

5-Door Range Rover Evoque – First official pictures & US PR #rangeroverevoque

Ahead of the actual reveal in LA on November 17th, Land Rover Range Rover has released pictures & a press release for the 5(4)-door Range Rover Evoque.

The PR we have is US biased with no talk of a diesel or 2WD model and with US prices stated to be starting at $45,000.  I still wonder, have they officially said that we aren’t getting the coupe?

And finally, interesting paragraph from that PR:

The more capacious interior of the five-door Range Rover Evoque has been achieved without enlarging the compact footprint of the coupe model: the overall length and width remain identical.

And I appear to still be the unofficial proof-reader for Land Rover here in the US.  Just below you can see a screen shot from the interactivelandrover.com site with the Press Release for this new model, and again, a pretty clear mistake on the third line.  I’m trying to make this criticism constructive, but I just thing they should have at least one real person read everything before they post it.  And again, I’m sure the mistake will be quietly fixed by morning but as usual, no one there will acknowledge my help.  I’m usually quieter about alerting them to all the mistakes but now I think I’m just going to post them here.  At least this time it wasn’t a spelling error…
