The guy who did this runs the GOE training and LR accessories in Perth, Australia. He runs Terrain Response training days and one of the last obstacles of the day is the "Rock Garden" as shown. He said he generally only take the Discos and the Sports up the hard section, which includes a 90deg turn that the Defenders/Toyotas/Nissans have trouble with. However, he decided to try taking their Evoque up it. With no low-range or "Rock-Crawl" setting it scrambled a bit, but amazed everyone by actually getting to the top! So this is his day in day out job, still I would not be trying in either.

Yeah I would definitely not be giving that a shot in my own car, but quite impressed that his evoque managed it.
