Range Rover Evoque

I don’t think I’d personally own one of these, and feel it’s a little overpriced for what it is. Yes, yes, I know it just won our Sport/Utility of the Year award, but that doesn’t make it an instant personal purchase prospect. Okay, if I’m seemingly so ambivalent about it, why is it on my “favorites” list? Because Land Rover had the cojones to introduce a 2-door compact SUV when nearly everyone else, with the exception of the Jeep Wrangler, has given up on the narrow niche. Granted, just about the only thing the Wrangler and Evoque have in common are four wheels and headlights, but I can appreciate that Range Rover wanted to make a style statement with the Evoque. In both two and four-door form, I’d say it succeeded.
