ground clearance

Any else noticed the ground clearance on the Dynamic is lower than the prestige
Only noticed after the dealer had a dynamic with scratch marks underneath
After questions asked that's the reply he gave

Ground Clearence should be the same but the approach angle is less on the dynamic.

No - ground clearance is less.

That's partly why I specced a prestige rather than get the dynamic Si4 - I wanted the best way to avoid getting stuck in the snow!

LR state that Ramp angle is the same (is that clearance?). Only approach and departure angles are different: Dynamic 19 & 30 versus Prestige at 25 & 33 degrees.

No - its the same. Only approach and departure angles are different.

Approach Angle 25º/19º†
Ramp Angle 22º
Departure Angle 33º/30º†
†Dynamic


Front axle clearance 215mm
Rear axle clearance 240mm

As stated in evoque brochure.

RTFM

Apologies - you are correct - the LR website states its the same for all three models.

Maybe I should have had dynamic after all - but then the the leather looks so good on the prestige!

No apology necessary. The colour coding on the dynamic gives the impression of being lower.

I think my angles have been reduced fitting mudflaps.
One to be aware of if you plan to go offroading.

The dynamic front spoiler is lower so should make a better snow plough?
