2017 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The biggest change for the 2017 Range Rover Evoque is that All Terrain Progress Control becomes standard across the lineup. It is otherwise a light-update year, with a new SE Dynamic trim and added equipment on several trims.
About the 2017 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque
1st generation (2012-2018 U.S. run), second year after the 2016 refresh.
Land Rover positions the Evoque as the stylish, city-friendly member of the Range Rover family: a compact luxury SUV with dramatic design, a high seating position, an upscale cabin, and real Land Rover all-weather and off-pavement capability. Compared with other small luxury SUVs, its main draw is not maximum cargo room or straight-line speed; it is the mix of distinctive looks, cabin atmosphere, and genuine terrain capability in a smaller footprint.
The 2017 Evoque range spans the straightforward SE, polished SE Premium, sport-styled SE Dynamic and HSE Dynamic, comfort-focused HSE, and flagship Autobiography. HSE has a 10-inch navigation touchscreen, Meridian audio, a panoramic roof, and blind-spot monitoring, while Autobiography adds massage seats, richer leather, surround-view cameras, adaptive LED headlights, and a 16-speaker Meridian audio system.
What changed, by category
Tech
All Terrain Progress Control, a low-speed system that manages speed on slippery or rough ground, becomes standard on every trim. HSE and HSE Dynamic gain a standard 10-inch Touch Pro navigation system. HSE also gains standard heated front seats, while SE gains standard proximity keyless entry. Premium audio is no longer standard on SE or SE Premium.
Styling and lighting
The sport-styled SE Dynamic joins the lineup, and adaptive LED headlights become standard on Autobiography.
Safety and driver assistance
Park Assist becomes standard on HSE and HSE Dynamic.
