Fuel mileage seems to be the hottest topic. On a highway trip with 5 people, full trunk, a big Thule box on the roof and averaging 100 kph, we managed 9.1L/100 km or 31 MPG (imperial gallon) so not that bad considering the load and being fresh.
Does anyome know if it's possible to get a 2" tow receiver? The Land Rover accessory is 1.25" which doesn't work with larger hitch mounted bike carriers. One place I called said that there are no aftermarket hitches for the Evoque due to the "less sturdy bumper assembly" !!??
If you'll pardon the ugliness of my tow setup, the bar itself converts from a 1 1/4" to a 2" bar that houses a 2" ball. Works fine. I had to look in 2 or 3 stores to find it. I expect you can find one on the internet like this...

A word of warning, the first one I found did NOT slide in far enough to the RR receiver in order for the pin to lock it in. I though about trying to drill it out, but that would be a project for a machine shop. Lucky I found another one that fit to a tee.
