MAHWAH, N.J., Nov. 10, 2010 – The exciting five-door version of the all-new Range Rover Evoque makes its global public debut at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show on November 17, 2010.

With its stylish and sporting appearance, combined with larger interior space, the five-door Range Rover Evoque joins the stunning coupe model to create a highly desirable line-up that will define the premium compact SUV segment.

Like the coupe, the five-door Range Rover Evoque remains faithful to the spirit of the groundbreaking Land Rover LRX concept car, offering an innovative new interpretation of the original coupe design.

The five-door Range Rover Evoque also stays true to the core values of the Range Rover brand, providing premium levels of craftsmanship, luxury, performance and renowned Land Rover multi-terrain capability, but in a more compact package.

"The addition of the five-door to the Range Rover Evoque line-up extends the appeal of our brand still further," said Land Rover's Managing Director Phil Popham.

"While retaining everything that's great about the Range Rover Evoque coupe, this new five-door bodystyle will offer customers even more choice, greater practicality, versatility and flexibility. The launch of the Range Rover Evoque in 2011 will expand the global appeal of the Range Rover marque."

I'm still not really feeling this one. Maybe in person it will look not as squished?

Well of course it looks bad in red. I am looking forward to seeing it in person, though. Dk. Grey or White would be nice, I think.

What's the point in having an SUV with such a pathetic backseat?

The bigger question is: what's the point of having a FWD Range Rover?

i think the car looks good but the earlier concept was cooler with a cleaner rear.

there is much demand on crossover. this is a good offering from LR. much like X3 and to some degree X5 and Cayenne, people that buy these don't really need the space. they just want the SUV look and the ability to haul large cargo in a hatch back.
