Yes, you see a color that was not previously available on the Range Rover Evoque. And you can also discover more cosmetics, black exhaust, new paints and other badges for example. Or a system that reads road signs and, if necessary, parks your car yourself. But that's not what makes the Range Rover Evoque model year 2014 so interesting. That Land Rover - first - comes out with a 9-speed automatic, though.

Together with expert ZF transmission Land Rover developed a machine that has nine gears. The new transmission, which fully ZF 9HP hot, is available on the only available gasoline engine (240 hp) and two powerful diesels (150 and 190 hp). And that means that the lilacs are three gears at once richer, the main profit that consumption has dropped to 11 percent. The number CO2 emissions now that the Range Rover Evoque is lower, up 9.5 percent to be precise.
                        
In addition to a greatly improved efficiency Land Rover also praised the response of the new machine. That would be ultra short, which ZF itself says that it is below the threshold of human perception. There is also an adaptive shift that rapidly adapts to the driving style.

Active Driveline
The new machine is not the only extra drive option. Land Rover is now offering a switch able four-wheel drive to, called Active Drive Line. At speeds up to 35 km / h which sends power to all four wheels always, but the system hangs just above the front wheel actuator off. Only when the road conditions ask, then suffice to call 300 milliseconds. The rear wheels to help

The Active Drive Line is also equipped with the new Active Torque Biasing e-Diff technology (electronically controlled differential) to divide the drive torque between the rear wheels and thereby optimize. Traction and stability Useful during more 'challenging' driving conditions. In turn, it also creates new Torque Vectoring Brake again by the Range Rover Evoque is less under steer sensitive.

Smarter than before
for the 2014 model year, the driver-support capabilities of the Range Rover Evoque also significantly improved by the introduction of seven new features. Thus, the existing parking assistance extended by Park Exit and Perpendicular Park. These functions make it possible to also automatically from the parking to drive away, both located parallel to the roadway parking spaces (the so-called parallel parking) and from transverse to the direction of travel subjects.

Other ordering systems, adaptive cruise control, detection of approaching vehicles and a system that warns the driver of left and / or right approaching vehicles when reversing. Lane Departure Warning, Traffic Sign Recognition (traffic signs recognition) and Wade Sensing that provides visual information while wading through riverbeds, are also available on this Range Rover Evoque.
