Land Rover has done small before -- the now-shelved LR2 comes to mind -- but the slim new Evoque, slated to be the smallest, lightest and most fuel-efficient vehicle in the Land Rover stable, will definitely stand out in a notable, and somewhat disconcerting, way. Base models of the Evoque will be front-wheel drive, making it the first 2-wheel-drive Land Rover in history.
The Evoque was revealed today in England amid a 40th anniversary celebration for the badge, though details about the model were scarce. (The Evoque will officially debut at the Paris Motor Show, so we expect full specs, pricing, etc., in September.)
What we do know is that the tiny Rover, which bears a striking resemblance to the LRX concept, will come in both 2- and 4-door editions, and that the U.S. model will boast a V6 and the Euro-specific Evoque will house a low-CO2 diesel.
The Evoque will go on sale in the U.S. in 2011.
