‘clearsight ground view’ technology uses cameras to create a 180 degree view of the ground below the elongated hood, and project it onto the upper touchscreen. it enhances many groundbreaking and range rover-firsts in terms of technologies. With so much refinement in its pursuit for design elegance, it is important to stress the model’s equal yet uncompromising capabilities on- and off-road. this comfort and elegant driving and passenger experience is completed with a whole host of assistance technologies, which includes adaptive cruise control with steering assist, active safety features and, most intriguingly, the ‘clearsight rear-view mirror’ that transforms into a video screen. it enhances a premium transverse architecture that explains the quiet, smooth drive along the slaloming seaside roads, wide freeways and bustling urban centers. The 2020 edition is available with an all-new 48-volt 296hp mild-hybrid powertrain alongside the 246hp ingenium four-cylinder petrol engine that designboom test drove in greece. the spaciousness of the tailored cabin is accentuated further with more room for rear passengers, luggage space and storage for small items too. all attention becomes focused on two touchscreens: the smaller one lies flush with the central panel until rotating to face the occupants when the car starts the lower screen is curved to fit its steep architecture and align with the gear selector. the clean, clear cockpit is defined by its central panel – upholstered in a kvadrat wool, recycled plastic textile or eucalyptus fabric – which is then topped by a thin trim and an equally as slim strip of air-vents. The principles of order, minimalism and modernity magnify into to the interior as well. its clean surfaces are sculptured with reduced lines and carefully considered details, such as the narrow headlights, embellished side-vents and, even, door handles that lie flush with the body when moving. with a dramatically contrasting greenhouse, the rapidly sloping roofline seemingly floats above the rising waistline on the body below. under his guidance, range rovers display order and discipline with their precise proportions, and the new evoque continues this with its renowned coupe-like silhouette. ‘ it is clearly an evoque’ illustrates gerry mcgovern, chief design officer, land rover, on our first look at the 2020 model. from climbing treacherous mountain tracks down to cruising along seaside roads, we drove past – and across in the case of the corinth canal – many engineering triumphs whilst in a marvel of our own. an angular greenhouse, high waistline and smooth surfaces distinguish a vision of modernity that extends into the interior and the experience overall.įrom athens to porto heli, designboom drove the new model across greece. the 2020 range rover evoque is larger, has more advanced driver assistance technologies and off-road capabilities than previously, yet its design, especially the exterior, epitomizes this minimalist philosophy. ‘ less is more’ is a popular phrase used in design, but often it is not accurate.
