More than 150 of Japan’s most prominent media got the opportunity to try the new Range Rover Evoque MHEV.

At the special drive event in Atsugi, a mixture of automotive and lifestyle journalists got the chance to put the second generation compact luxury SUV through its paces both on and off road.

The media was quick to commend the Evoque’s increased levels of luxury and sophistication, ride quality, performance and sustainable upholstery options.

Web Cartop’s Noaki Aoyama, said: “Think of Range Rovers, they are elegant and dignified. From imagining how it would feel to drive – it was a refreshing experience. The quality of the steering response has a taste of lightness and casualness.”

Cliccar’s Yumi Yoshida, added: “What I noticed was the material of the seats. It was fitted with the Eucalyptus Melange textile. What the Evoque is aiming for is to not only be stylish, but to also actually be sustainable.”
