Not sure about that as LR abandoned the Brand switch from Land Rover to Range Rover for the Range Rover, RRS & Evoque only months after they switched all brochures and logos and car badges.
They were all black "RANGE ROVER" but the decision was made to revert back to green "LAND ROVER" unless a special model. All Brochures had to be reprinted (again)
Surely they would not make same mistake twice especially as Land Rover is such a successful brand name? (And Range Rover a model name)

Some of the photo shop mockups on this look better than LR's offering imo.
Is anybody eles concerned that this looks like a small car inside a big car?

Its like a bigger chavvy Evoque for larger dwarfs, horrible, they have lost the plot and destroying all heritage. This type of style should stay with Range Rover, can you imagine this going through fields as a work vehicle, the whole range is turning into a poncy pricks chav mobiles, just needs LED under car lighting or maybe it has it already
Definitely a hairdressers vehicle for the larger hairdresser

I like the look of it but can't help but think it's completely destroying the brand values.
This really is an Evoque plus - as it doesn't have its own identity it really fits between the Evoque and the RRS which its looks make it very much part of in terms of family. However is there that much gap for it to fit in the line up?
Maybe the pricing will do it - maybe it is cheaper and will come in at 32-34k fully loaded?
Thing is - if I wanted bling then I get a Range Rover, if I want practicality then I get Land Rover
Are we sure all the Evoque-esque adornments aren't just moulding the whole range in to one?
How will they give us the practicality we all need from our blocky, high sided Discovery 3s and 4s yet still cover it in this new design language the whole range seems to have to fit in to (despite being supposedly different brands)? MY15 DIY Black Pack (Better than factory and half the price!)
