I would like a new evoque version to stand out from the rest with a bit more grunt and bhp and stand out so the other brands cant be modified to look like it!
That is seriously sexist, and presumably having an SC model would be the equivalent to saying 'mine is bigger than yours'? For a pain free life I'd have to gently suggest that such thoughts are kept secret!

Why not buy a FFRR or RRS?! They may give you the "presence" you require!

+2 but just to be sure you tick all of the boxes I think an Escalade should be considered.

I suppose that someone whose brain is between his legs not his ears cannot be expected to know that supercharging is not the way to go. It's possible to remap the petrol Evoque to close to 300bhp. Whether we will see an Evoque S, RS, Sport of whatever is anyone's guess.

Yet another classy contribution ...

There is a rumor of a 300 hp Evoque in the works, very likely to be based on the Si4 which is turbocharged. Probably getting a sportier look with it too.

The Range Rover Evoque is from a concept called the LRX which should not of even gone in to production,yet alone been pimped! In its raw state (pure) it is a beautiful car.Dynamic ,Prestige grace its looks.From there on leave it alone to the dedicated and talented designers of landrover !

I agree, the Dynamic is all the "sporty" look we need. The danger they must avoid is compromising core RR-ness by, for example, lowering the car. I'd like to see the gearbox sport and chassis dynamic settings cranked up a notch to go with a more powerful engine but they must resist the temptation to tinker.
