Think FFRR or Porsche 911 design, because i strongly believe the Evoque design has entered this exclusive design icon group, and thats why that statement makes good sense.
The Evoque design has been a smash hit sensation from the start,and for good reason.
It is a new bold design, a rolling sculpture, that effortlessly stands out from the masses,with unique,clean,and beautifully proportioned lines.
For these reasons,i believe it is,and will remain a modern day iconic design that will be really hard to alter from the original masterpiece that it is.

You're right, it can't do that... My apologies

I'd like to see better organised carrying capability. Like an elasticated net in the well on the right side of the boot space and a roll up retaining net above the back seats. My A4 Avant had both and the retaining net could be used immediately behing the front seats when the rear seats were folded.

Ideal for when fully loaded. I never feel safe when there is unsecured luggage inside the car.

boot cargo netting is easy to retrofit

A Hybrid version... More power, more efficiency, everyone wins!
I can dream...

Somewhat agree, although I believe early models will suffer heavy depreciation (like mine with 6 speed box etc.). In addition, small facelifts can make a difference (ie as in Freelander2). Sorry!

i would like to see a v6 diesel option
more durable black plastic trim around windows
Heated rear seats
better plastics on seat backs

We watched the robots rivet and glue the panels together.

Perhaps I missed something.

Hi Evo king, Main chassis, door shuts and doors and rear quarter is steel, roof and bonnet Aluminium, bumpers, front wings and tailgate are plastic. Did you see the robots welding the inner wings etc at the beginning etc.
