Range Rover Evoque Convertible: All You Need To Know

Jaguar Land Rover India will be launching the long-anticipated Range Rover Evoque Convertible next week in India and we were pretty sure that it won't be making its way here but the folks had different plans and it's all set to arrive on our shores on March 27, 2018. This will be the country's first luxury compact convertible SUV and also the first convertible SUV from the Land Rover stable. There's been a massive increase in the number of SUVs, of all sizes, on sale in recent years but the convertible makes a difference and of course sets it apart from the crowd. When we first saw a concept version at the Geneva Motor Show in 2012, and we didn't quite like it but well, it's grown on us and it is rugged looking, sporty even and though it looks better with the roof up but well, we can live with that.
