    The final teaser for the new Land Rover Evoque gives a glimpse of a familiar silhouette on the SUV. The design language is expected to evolve from the current version while retaining the cross-coupe profile. That said, do expect to see more muscular wheel arches, a rising beltline and a front inspired by the new Range Rover Velar. The cabin will see a major overhaul, as has been the case with all new Land Rover models. Expect the 2019 Range Rover Evoque to be more tech-friendly with the dual touchscreen infotainment system with the InControl Pro interface that supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

    The cabin is also likely to get roomier thanks to the completely new Land Rover PTA platform, which will sport a longer wheelbase, up from the current 2660 mm. The new platform will also make room for incorporating a host tech including a electric powertrain option.

    With respect to the conventional engines, the 2019 Land Rover Evoque will be drawing power from the 2.0-litre Ingenium range of petrol and diesel engines with power ranging from around 177 bhp to 297 bhp. The engines will come paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission, while All-Wheel Drive will be offered too.

    The current Evoque's off-roading capabilities are likely to get an upgrade as well in the process. Coming to the hybrid version, the 1.5-litre petrol engine with a 48V mild-hybrid system could make its debut at a later stage. While the 5-door version is a given, it needs to be seen if the 3-door Land Rover Evoque will be available in the next generation.

    That said, the Evoque Convertible is likely to make an appearance sometime later. Expect the new generation Land Rover Evoque to arrive in India sometime towards the end of next year and the model will be locally assembled keeping prices competitive. The SUV will take on the Volvo XC60, Mercedes-Benz GLC, BMW X3 and the likes.
