The new model will be a 'Grand Evoque' designed to bridge the gap between the Evoque and the Range Rover Sport and will be priced between £35 and £55k.
Personally I hope it doesn't happen. If it's just a scaled up Evoque, then all it's going to do is dilute the uniqueness of the design. It will then no longer look fresh and instead will just take on a corporate face, similar to the X1, X3 and X5 (although obviously not quite so bland).

I was told that next year there would be changes to the engine line up (9 Speed autos so its more fuel efficient), including one engine that is sportier than presently offered.

However when I was discussing upcoming changes they never said that a larger Evoque could be planned. They did emphasise the company’s design objective towards achieving greener cars (fuel efficient etc) but I guess a beefier engine, or even a larger Evoque sort of contradicts that.
