The Evoque's satnav is absolutely useless (and not very easy to use).
This evening on my journey home, it first of all wanted to take me on a route that would have taken SIXTEEN MINUTES longer than my normal route. So I ignored it and after ignoring a further four attempts to get me back on the longer route, it finally gave in and appeared to point me in the 'right' direction.
Then, about 10 mins from home, it suggested a different way. I was intigued, so I followed thinking it was going to take me on some shortcut. It took me TWENTY TWO MINUTES to get home!! The satnav is crap!!!
I would expect the satnav to take me on the quickest route home - why did it keep trying to make me take longer routes? There doesn't appear to be any set-up options like on every other satnav I've used.
It's been nearly two weeks of being confused and frustrated by the Evoque's satnav and I'm about to give-up on it altogether and just go back to a good old AA road map.
