Four-wheel drive matters more to this car than you might think

RANGE ROVER EVOQUE

MILEAGE 2881
WHY WE’RE RUNNING IT Can this upmarket SUV still hold its own in the face of fresher competition?

Our top-of-the-range Autobiography Evoque is four-wheel drive. It’s always a divisive one, that, because JLR prides itself on making all Land Rovers and Range Rovers supremely capable off road, as a fitting nod to its heritage, yet it can be met with derision because, really, who is taking their £200,000 Range Rover off road? The Evoque is significantly cheaper, of course, but given that it’s largely a town-dweller, the same thought applies.

Testing, testing

If you long for the good old days when BMW model numbers referred to the engine capacity (just don't mention the 3.2-litre 745i, the 1.8-litre 316 or countless others that didn't), I've got bad news for you: the car industry's product planners are hard at work devising new and arcane naming schemes in an effort to not make EVs sound like inkjet printers.
