Since production started in 2011, the posh Range Rover Evoque went to become the sweetheart of the compact luxury crossover segment. It’s the model that represents the first three years of Jaguar-Land Rover under Indian ownership and it’s still selling like hot cakes to this day. Without regard to its commercial success, Land Rover is on the verge of launching a new Evoque early next year.
It’s not an all-new generation, nor the mid-cycle facelift that debuted earlier this year. It’s the 2016 Range Rover Evoque Cabriolet that we’re referring to and lookie here, isn’t that thing in the photo gallery it? Furthermore, the first three pics in the adjacent gallery feature a full-on film crew and some photographers for good measure. Courtesy of Ferd, the somewhat pixelated pictures are a no-brainer.
Land Rover is preparing the launch video for the 2016 Range Rover Evoque Convertible and a few of those over-Photoshopped press photographs. Compared to the Range Rover Evoque Convertible Concept (based on the pre-facelift Evoque), the production-ready Evoque Convertible is based on the facelift. The front bumper, LED headlights and daytime running lights give it away, as does the mildly revised rear bumper.
Land Rover previously confirmed that the 2016 Range Rover Evoque Convertible will “go on sale in 2016,” a detail that would make anyone wonder why is the brand doing the promo shoot six months ahead of New Year’s Eve? Our guess is that the rag top Evoque is slated to make its first public outing in September at Frankfurt, with deliveries to commence in the first quarter of 2016.
In terms of mechanicals, the 2016 Ranger Rover Evoque Convertible will be offered with a familiar array of inline-four turbo engines, with the addition of the Ingenium TD4 oil burner from Jaguar. The 2-liter unit will be offered in 150 PS (148 horsepower) and 180 PS (177 horsepower) flavors. An eD4 turbo diesel might fill the role of most economical powertrain option available for this iteration of the Evoque.
