With the continuous improvement of living standards, the chances of seeing luxury cars on the road are also increasing, especially some of the main models like Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi, which have almost become street cars. Take myself for example, driving a 2013 Audi Q5, the original choice of this car is mainly because of the appearance of the more like, Audi design is particularly fashionable, even if it is not outdated at all now, and the brand image of BBA is not bad, driving out feels quite faceless, this car is currently operating for seven years, the only place that makes me less satisfied is that the rear row is smaller, after all, there was no longer a longer wheelbase at that time, and the space is almost the same as the compact SUV.
Some time ago, a good friend around mentioned a new Range Rover Evoque L, invited me to experience it in the past, to be honest I am not very familiar with Land Rover, I have only sat on the Range Rover before, I think it is indeed quite luxurious, but after all, it is a million executive-level luxury cars, as for the Range Rover Evoque, in my impression is more beautiful, but in the price of about 40w The competitiveness is not particularly strong, especially compared with mercedes-Benz GLC, BMW X3, Audi Q5, these same level opponents, sales are much worse, Not enough is that after seeing my friend's car, my impression of the car has changed a lot.
Friends this year 33 years old, the economic conditions are relatively good, the family already has an Audi A4L, this time mainly want to buy an SUV, occasionally pull something is also convenient, for him, BBA brand attributes are not particularly important, the key is still to like themselves, he intends to buy a sporty style SUV, after comparing BMW X3 and Jaguar F-PACE, finally chose the Land Rover Range Rover Aurora, the reason is that the aurora is indeed beautiful, unique in the luxury SUV of about 400,000 , very suitable for young people, the second is that after the replacement of the car has lengthened the wheelbase, the space has been greatly improved, and the land Rover's off-road ability is better, and occasionally you can go to the wild to play.
The front face of the new Range Rover Evoque L is the latest design language of the Land Rover family, the front of the car is very wide and domineering, the shape of the headlights is also very sharp, and it looks like it is not angry. Coming to the side, the shape is still the classic suspension roof + sneakback body, a "L" logo is added to the C-pillar to indicate the extended identity, the hidden door handle looks very modern, and a straight waist line extends from the front fender to the taillights, which also makes the whole car look more capable. The transparent taillight shell of the rear part of the car is matched with a penetrating bright black trim strip, which widens the horizontal visual effect of the tail, and the wide lower surround plus the silver anti-scuff guard plate further enhances the overall wild atmosphere, to be honest, the shape of the aurora is really too attractive for young people.
After talking about the exterior and then look at the interior, compared with my old Audi Q5, the interior of this car is obviously not a product of the times, and a total of three large screens are given in the car. Including a 12.3-inch full LCD dashboard and a double 10.2-inch central control LCD screen, almost can not find the physical buttons, so it seems particularly simple and exquisite, all say that Audi is good at creating a sense of technology, but I think Land Rover is also very good at this aspect, in addition to the use of a large number of leather packages in the car, the steering wheel with punching treatment, a variety of stitching processing is also extremely meticulous, with bright black piano paint and some chrome metal decorations, the whole set of interior luxury and grade sense is not inferior to the same level of BBA.
Configuration will not be repeated, to 400,000 this level of the configuration must have, let's talk about space, this car in the length after the wheelbase reached 2841mm, the actual space performance feels slightly worse than the current Mercedes-Benz GLC and Audi Q5L, but if compared with BMW X3, Volvo XC60, Cadillac XT5, basically at the same level, my height of 1 meter 78, sitting in the rear leg space can reach two punches, the head from the roof also has a punch or so of spare weight, Feeling very generous, open the trunk to take a look, and other opponents than its trunk is more cramped, perhaps because the body length is only 4531mm, no way, for the handsome appearance can only sacrifice the trunk space.
In terms of power, the car bought by a friend is equipped with a 2.0T high-power engine + 48V mixing system, the maximum horsepower is 249 horses, the maximum torque is 365 Nm, matching the 9AT gearbox, the power is still very abundant when it is opened, the start is calm and fast, the acceleration in the middle and rear section is more powerful, even if the speed reaches 80km/h after stepping on the throttle deeply, you can still feel the feeling of pushing back. In addition, although this car belongs to the urban SUV, but the off-road ability is not weak, the maximum wading depth of 600mm, and equipped with the second generation of all-terrain feedback adaptation system and all-terrain perspective technology, for light off-road is also comfortable.
The above is this new Range Rover Evoque L gives me some of the actual feelings, in general, after the replacement of this car in all aspects of the performance is more balanced, fully equipped with a luxury medium-sized SUV should have the quality, intelligent technology also keep up with the trend of the times, compared with the traditional German luxury car, the British luxury car looks younger, elegant, perhaps this is also related to the brand positioning of Land Rover!
