  • The premium SUV class is a stack field consisting of hard hitters, such as Lexus NX, Porsche Macan and BMW X3, so can a manufacturer make a splash in 2016? In rolls the Range Rover’s latest update to the Evoque since it first appeared on the scene in 2011, the Evoque Convertible! The roof can drop at a jaw dropping speed of 30mph and in 18 seconds flat! However, have Range Rover sacrificed too much in converting the Evoque to a soft top? Has the Evoque Convertible sacrificed practicality for style? Is it worth the hight price? Find out all my views and more in this latest review!

    One of my neighbours has one of these. They have a beautiful living room that they never use with a bottle of wine that's never opened on a coffee table that nobody ever sits at.....right at the front of the house, curtains open for everybody to see.
    Enough said.

    1:16 As much as I love Doug DeMuro, seeing that annoys me so much, because in Doug's video, he moves the seat forward slightly with the regular button on the base of the seat, and not the proper one used in this video to allow rear passengers to get in.
    He deliberately made the car appear worse than it is.

      DonaId Trump yeah it was obvious as I’ve seen other videos of people getting in and out of the back without a problem. Of course Doug is much taller than those people but Doug is much taller than the avg person anyway. Doug’s video on the RR Evoque convertible was pretty much negative. I wouldn’t buy one new but maybe 1-2 years old I would.

    First, I must say that you are doing a fantastic job with your car reviews. Secondly, I personally think the car itself is a bit daft even though I work for JLR. It is very unique, completely capable off road, but this is car is for those rich spoiled teenagers who want to show off their suv that is a convertible and offered capable. I think it is also best suited for preppy housewives, or women who want a very different looking car.

  • @edwardcrouch
    @edwardcrouch 7 років тому +7

    Matt, you gotta keep your finger on the seat-move button otherwise the seat would just return to the original position and squish the rear passenger. You'd need to add a pressure sensor to prevent this, which would be additional cost/complexity and would mean the seat has to press against the knees of the passenger before the seat stops.

    Fabulous car, highly desirable in my opinion. Perfect solo/family Sunday country tourer for being at one with environment wherever or a chukka of polo. Pat the horses without having to get mud on the brogues.

  • @GeorgeW666
    @GeorgeW666 7 років тому +2

    I've test driven one (for a laugh, honestly) and I have to agree it's like nothing else. It definitely puts a huge grin on your face and you soon find out if you can laugh at yourself. The only thing I call bull on, Mat, is that at just over 6'2 I couldn't even fit in the back with a short adult in the front! No way can you get four 6 footers in this car comfortably. Having said that, perhaps the expected customers will be a lot shorter and based in London.
