With its concept car looks, the Range Rover Evoque still appears fresh as a daisy, even four years since it started production. Factor in the fact that the same design debuted as a concept in 2008, though, and it shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone that it’s due for an update very soon.
The Tata-owned British company is set to unveil the 2016 Range Rover Evoque facelift at the Geneva Motor Show next month, and has released this sole image as a preview. It shows an updated headlamp signature and nothing else, but that’s likely to be the most drastic design change in the mid-life update anyway.
“Our challenge has been to enhance the Evoque without diluting its iconic design,” said Gerry McGovern, Land Rover Design Director and Chief Creative Officer. So don’t expect the compact SUV to change a whole lot, at least in the looks department.
The 2016 Evoque will be the first Land Rover to feature full LED adaptive headlamps. Other than that, it will also include “a new engine line-up, new safety and convenience features, and interior enhancements.” Look like it’ll get JLR’s new Ingenium engine range sooner, rather than later.

Was not expecting a design update to the Range Rover Evoque, considering how fresh it looks compared to the X3 and Q5, but of course, they need to do it cause of the Macan.
I’m hoping they will bring in a bit higher powered engines into the mix, say some 300hp 4 cylinder (like on the Volvo XC60) to give the Macan a run for the money.
I’d guess on the following:
1. Introduction of Air Suspension
2. Improved aerodynamics
3. High powered petrols into the mix
4. Potential Evoque SPORT variant
5. Software improvements to the ZF9HP
6. New version of Satnav and all LCD speedo
Ppl upgrade to Evoque from Camry, Accord or C class. From a Preve/Suprima S? Never heard of.
Where do Hyundai/Kia have ENOUGH extra money for car upgrade as they usually get back very little for their traded-in kimchi cars??
This is the power of RV!!
How would you know if you can upgrade from a Camry to an Evoque,when your life could be at risk in a crash? Who knows because of less safety features,you have to use your RV money for your life support instead.
The rakyat don’t buy sh*t from UMW! That RV you get is coz you pay so high for the car in the first place,and with safety not enough to justify for what you pay for!
This is the power of UMW!
Welcome to 2009 when LED headlights were introduced
even korean junk has it, its no longer exclusive… just ditch the led headlight and start something new… korean cars are always spoiling the trends
Why do u always attack Korean cars? At least it’s better than the junk(Proton) that Malaysia has been producing over the past 30 yrs.
The Korean car industry started the same time as the Malaysian car industry. If you want to compare, pls compare apples to apples. Do not compare Korean cars to European cars.
Even Jap cars are rubbish. Even the giant Jap carmaker Toyota is still using antiques such as 4 speed auto. Rubbish products, but Malaysians think it’s a quality product!
i’m just happy if they updated the touch screen entertainment console.. frustrating using one although pretty much happy driving one. end up, waze is mounted for traffic info.
