Geneva 2012: Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Convertible Concept

Were you to ask us what the most out-of-left-field vehicle at the Geneva Motor Show was, there’s a pretty fair chance we’d say it was the totally unexpected Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Convertible Concept.

Rumors: Spy Shots—2013 Range Rover Spotted

Land Rover’s flagship model, the Range Rover, was recently snapped by Autoblog spy photographers during a winter testing session. Styling for the luxury SUV appears to retain flavors from the current generation, while mixing in slight changes like a gently sloping roofline. Underneath the skin, it will reportedly utilize the same chassis as the Jaguar XJ. Several of the spy shots catch a glimpse of the test car’s interior and, at least for now, it doesn’t appear that major changes have been made.

Driven: 2012 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque Coupe

The Range Rover Evoque arrives on the scene just as beholden to the less-than-ideal real world as its premium CUV competitors, then, but also with much more of a mandate to (self-imposed, to a large extent) to have go-anywhere ability. This is, after all, a Land Rover. The British company may have just a precious few total models spread out over its roughly 60-year history, but none, as yet, has been anything less than a bulldog off-road. That’s an imposing history for a crossover to live up to, let alone one as sleek and (sometimes) two-doored as the slinky Evoque Coupe.

The pro and college football seasons are well and truly underway, which means if you haven’t been, you need to start thinking about tailgates.

Frankfurt 2011: Frankfurt Auto Show Wrap-Up

As for production metal, there seemed to be something for everyone: exotics, hybrids, station wagons, SUVs, GTs, and sports cars were all well represented at this years show.

Frankfurt 2011: Land Rover DC100 Concept

Scheduled to debut at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show in a few weeks, the DC100’s styling seems to have been influenced by the upcoming Range Rover Evoque, ditching the current vehicles upright front fascia, in favor of a slightly curvier look. The concept also looks to be available with a contrasting roof, similar to the Evoque.

Graphed: 5.0-Liter V-8 Power

There’s something magical about five liters of displacement divided among eight cylinders. Right now, Ford, Jaguar/Land Rover, Hyundai, and Lexus are using them in various vehicles, and we haven’t found one that’s let us down yet. Whether naturally aspirated or supercharged, they all sing a great song and provide a healthy kick in the pants.

Quick Drive: 2011 Land Rover Range Rover HSE

The biggest non-reliability-focused issue with the Range Rover, as ever, is that its much-less-expensive stable mate is every bit as good to drive, and more useable to boot. After taking it on a long road trip last year, and testing it verus other, posh three-row SUVs just a few months ago, I can’t really find a lot of rationale for buy the Range over the LR4.

Comparison Test: Land Rover LR4 vs. Cadillac Escalade vs. Infiniti QX56

In the real world, a vehicle’s comfort isn’t limited simply to how good the seats feel to sit in. There are a lot of other factors, including climate control, ride quality, noise levels, being able to get in and out of the car, and ease of use. Often, the words “luxury” and “size” go hand in hand with the idea of comfort. The features on hand also factor into how comfortable the experience is for driver and passengers; a long drive is going to be more comfortable if the kids in the back seat are calm, complacent, and entertained than if they are squirming, complaining, and asking, “Are we there yet?”

Blog: Is Toyota A Luxury Brand?

When we think of luxury SUVs, we commonly think of Lincoln, Lexus, Infiniti, Land Rover, Cadillac, Mercedes-Benz, and the like. After all, these are the luxury brands, and when someone mentions luxury, the core brands such as Nissan, Ford, and Toyota aren’t the first to come to mind. When we wrote up our luxury three-row SUV comparison for the latest issue of Winding Road, we stuck with the names that people associate with luxury, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be found elsewhere. This is especially true when it comes to these larger vehicles, as we find they have the space and the available options to make them super comfortable.

One Cool Feature: Land Rover LR4 Surround Camera System

When driving, being able to see where you are going and what is going on around you is generally quite important. That’s why we tend to appreciate vehicles with massive greenhouses, as it gives us a great idea of what the other knuckleheads on the road are up to.

List: What Car Would You Buy With $100,000?

Here’s a party game to try out with all of your car-loving friends and family members over the upcoming holiday season. The scenario is this: someone hands you $100,000 in a suitcase and tells you to buy a car. You can only buy one vehicle with the money, and you don’t get to keep the change when you’re done.

Quick Drive: 2011 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged

The Range Rover is a brilliant car that makes no sense. Since the world would be a more threadbare place without cars (and art and architecture and really anything “inefficient” but humanely attractive), let’s dispense with the reasons you could get the raw functionality of this vehicle for vastly less money and concentrate on what it does that is special.
