The Range Rover Evoque might have its critics, but they aren’t numerous by any means. The latest addition to Land Rover’s arsenal has racked up an impressive number of awards since its launch, and today yet another one can be added to the trophy cabinet.
Britain’s Diesel Car Magazine has named the Range Rover Evoque its Car of the Year for 2012. Besides taking top honors, it also won the best crossover category, while the Discovery 4 was awarded Best 4x4 title for third year in a row.
This achievement comes as no surprise after the 1,000,000th Discovery ever built was driven over 10,000 miles in 50 days.
"Already an icon, the Evoque combines stunning design and brilliant engineering to great effect. While Evoque claimed the ultimate prize, the Land Rover Discovery 4 demonstrated the diverse capability of Land Rover design and engineering by taking the 'Best 4x4 Award' for the third successive year. No challenger has yet to do better than the Land Rover, which has occupied the top spot ever since it was launched, and is described by the magazine as "everything you could possibly want in a car,” said Diesel Car editor Ian Robertson.
