Evoque facelift

Was travelling on the m42 today when an evoque joined the motorway at Solihull, joined the traffic and i stayed with him till he turned off to m40' could be gaydon?, car was a dynamic coupe LHD on uk plates, I managed a photo and noticed that the centre rear bumper insert looked different, the wheels looked different too, like a new design?, the car had the new front grille with LR badge, what was noticeable was a small black flat panel moulded into dead centre of the grille, like it was an integral part of the mould, it looked like a radar sensor similar to the Volvo anti collision sensor on the new Volvo's, couldn't put my finger in it but car looked different

Here's a photo, as the driver passed me by he also gave a wave

RE: Evoque facelift

It has an aeroflip spoiler too, wonder if they are bring it back as a standard Dynamic fitting?

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

RE: Evoque facelift

I hope they are putting the adaptive cruise control into to the evoque. this and the 9 speed auto box might be cause for a replacement.

I could actually drive round roundabouts with those!Very Happy

probably because someone at LR either either mis-interpreted or over engineered a solution to the legislation. There are otehr cars with simliar frontal areas that have nothing like the Evoque's oversized mirrors

I am sure someone will come up with smaller ears on the market... I am definitely on the lookout if this is available... No point talking to LR design team...
