“Leather should be standard, as should HID headlights. Also, no cupholders in the back is a really annoying. I LOVE my Evoque. I do wish it had more standard features--like completely leather seats, and HIDs, and backseat cup holders though.”
2014 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The single biggest change for the 2014 Range Rover Evoque is its new 9-speed automatic, paired with standard Active Driveline AWD across the U.S. lineup. It is a major mechanical update, not a redesign.
About the 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque
1st generation (2012-2019), third model year, major driveline update year rather than a redesign.
Land Rover positioned the Evoque as the smallest Range Rover: a compact luxury SUV that mixes standout design, upscale cabin materials, and real all-weather/off-pavement ability. Unlike many style-first small luxury SUVs, the Evoque was marketed as something that could handle city driving, long highway trips, and rougher terrain with equal confidence. Its biggest draw was that it delivered Range Rover image and capability in a much smaller, easier-to-place package.
Pure is the clean, straightforward Evoque, with a turbocharged four-cylinder engine, an 8-inch touchscreen, and a Meridian audio system. Pure Plus adds a panoramic glass roof and leather, while Pure Premium and Prestige focus on features such as navigation, upgraded Meridian surround audio, premium cameras, and richer cabin materials. Dynamic takes the sportier route with unique bodywork, 20-inch wheels, adaptive suspension, and sport seats.

“2014 Land Rover Evoque is a beautiful car and drives like a European sports car with off road capabilities.”
“The only thing I dislike about the car is the paint, it's soooo soft/fragile, every little thing scratches it... I would think the Range Rover paint would be tougher, at least tougher than the cheap cars out there and it's not...”
