Adding to the list of accomplishments produced by the 2012 Range Rover Evoque, Land Rover Manhattan is happy to announce that Automobile Magazine recently gave it a 2012 All-Star Award. On a yearly basis the magazine determines ten automobiles it feels are simply the best for that model year. In each category, the magazine aims to pick the car that stands out from the crowd - which, they admit is a challenging task.

Automobile Magazine applauds the iconic value of the Land Rover from its first inception. Over the course of its history, Land Rover has continued to produce vehicles  that appeal to an elite crowd. And their latest iteration isn't any less unique or rugged. According to the magazine, "The Evoque is first and foremost a design triumph...it telegraphs the new truck's off-road chops while carrying a heavy load of aspirational snob appeal."¹

Care to delve further into the high-end off-road chops? Well, the 2.0L Turbocharged, four-cylinder engine pumps out 240 hp and 251 lb.-ft. of torque, while still producing an impressive 28-mpg. It's the epitome of luxury, of course, while not jeopardizing any performance characters. That's right, even in a luxury SUV, you can wade through 20 inches of water, operate at tilt angles of up to 45-degrees and drive through ruts, sand, mud, grass, gravel and snow with the Land Rover Terrain System.

Andy Goss, company President, says, "We're excited to have the 2012 Range Rover Evoque be named an All-Star...to receive the Automobile Magazine honor and other recent SUV of the Year accolades demonstrates that the world is in fact ready for a smaller, more fuel-efficient, luxury SUV."²

Automobile Magazine likes to declare that they are the best at selecting award winning vehicles . And, here at [ Land Rover Manhattan, we happen to agree with them when they say that the Evoque is destined to become a member of the iconic cars of history. That said, we invite you to come and visit our showroom at 787 11th Ave. New York, NY 10019 to get a taste for the Range Rover Evoque and its "Power of Presence"³ for yourself.
