Range Rover has facelifted the Evoque with an updated interior and a small range increase for the plug-in hybrid variant.
The front-end benefits from a new set of slimmer headlights and a redesigned grille, which brings its face in line with that of its stablemates.
Bigger changes are found inside, where the Evoque's dashboard has been re-designed and is now centred around a new 11.4-inch touchscreen. The climate controls and other switchgear have been integrated into the screen, leaving a minimalist cabin.
The interior changes mirror those recently applied to the Range Rover.
The powertrain and trim line-up for the Evoque has been streamlined. There are now three diesel engines, three petrol engines and a plug-in hybrid. These can be selected across four trims: S, Dynamic SE, Dynamic HSE and Autobiography.
All-wheel-drive is fitted across most of the line up, along with a nine-speed automatic transmission. The entry-level D165 uses a six-speed manual and the three-cylinder P160 petrol has an eight speed auto. Both are front-wheel-drive.
Prices have risen by almost £2,500, with the D165 manual S costing £40,080. The P300e is priced from £49,000.
New battery technology has boosted the zero emission range of the P300e from 38 mile to 39 miles.The 14.9kWh unit can be charged in as little as 30 minutes, using a 50kW charger.
New features include a cabin air purification system and pixel LED headlights.
The new Evoque is available to order now.
