Range Rover Evoque — price 2026, mileage, specs & review

Range Rover now operates as its own stand-alone marque within JLR, with its own India site (rangerover.com/en-in) separate from landrover.in. The Evoque, Velar, Range Rover Sport and Range Rover are all marketed under the Range Rover name; Land Rover still covers the Defender and Discovery family, including the closely related Discovery Sport.

The 5-star Euro NCAP rating commonly quoted for the Evoque dates to April 2019 and formally expired on 1 January 2026 under Euro NCAP's own 6-year validity rule, so it is technically unrated by Euro NCAP today. There is no Global NCAP or Bharat NCAP crash-test result for the India car either, as it's a low-volume model outside both programmes' usual testing pool — ask Range Rover India directly if a current rating matters to your decision.

Both cost exactly the same ex-showroom, so it's a usage call: the 250 PS P250 petrol suits lower annual running and a smoother city feel, while the 204 PS D200 diesel's stronger low-end torque and better claimed mileage (14.71 kmpl vs 12.82 kmpl) suit frequent highway driving.

Estimates don't agree — Autocar India's FAQ (31 Oct 2026) says 4–6 months, while other aggregators quote as little as 4–13 weeks. It's best treated as stock- and colour-dependent; check directly with your Range Rover retailer for current lead times.

They share a platform and are built alongside each other at JLR's Halewood plant, but the Discovery Sport is bigger (226 mm longer, 73 mm wider, 78 mm taller per Autocar India), cheaper at ₹63.37 lakh, and offers an optional third row; the Evoque is the sharper-looking, five-seat-only design statement at a slightly higher ₹64.86 lakh. Buyers wanting outright style pick the Evoque; buyers wanting occasional extra seats pick the Discovery Sport.

For a 1.9–2.0-tonne AWD luxury SUV, reasonably so: Autocar India's spec sheet lists 12.82 kmpl claimed for the petrol and 14.71 kmpl for the diesel. Real-world figures in Hyderabad traffic will be lower, and the diesel is the clearly better choice if efficiency matters more than outright refinement.

The Velar sits a size and a price bracket above the Evoque, with more rear space, a bigger boot and a more understated design language, while the Evoque is the smaller, sharper-styled, and more affordable way into the Range Rover badge. Buyers who cross-shop the two usually pick the Evoque for city use and design statement, and the Velar when rear-seat space and a larger cabin matter more.

Yes — the flush door-handle recesses and the front bumper corners are the two spots we repair most often on this car, so a full-front AG1 install with the door-handle seams wrapped individually is our standard recommendation. Message Auto Grid on WhatsApp for a plan suited to your paint shade.
