2018 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
For 2018, the Range Rover Evoque's biggest change is a new 2.0-liter Ingenium turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine replacing the previous engine across the lineup. It is a substantial mechanical update, not a redesign.
About the 2018 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque
1st generation (2012-2019 U.S.), late-cycle update year before the all-new 2020 redesign.
Land Rover positions the Evoque as a luxury compact SUV that blends city-friendly size and fashion-forward design with real rough-weather and off-road capability. The core appeal is the mix of standout styling, a richer cabin feel than many small SUVs, a higher seating position, and Land Rover hardware such as Terrain Response and All Terrain Progress Control. It is the style-led entry point to the Range Rover family, but it still carries genuine trail ability.
The 2018 lineup runs from the straightforward SE, with leather seats, an 8-inch touchscreen, and off-road traction controls, to the comfort-focused HSE with a 10-inch navigation screen, heated Windsor leather seats, and blind-spot monitoring. The new Landmark Edition emphasizes appearance and convenience with Dynamic body styling, a panoramic roof, keyless entry, and a powered gesture tailgate. At the top, Autobiography adds heated, cooled, and massaging front seats, surround-view cameras, and an 825-watt Meridian audio system.
