Car "Range Rover Evok": owner feedback

Many connoisseurs of SUVs, choosing their own car, opt for a spectacular model such as the Range Rover Ewok. Feedback from owners of a positive nature, good technical component, stylish appearance - all this pushes the idea of buying this machine. However, the car is really good. And to understand what he really is, it is worth looking at the real opinions of the people who own it. As motorists are accustomed to celebrate with attention not only advantages, but also cons.

Control

The first step is to dwell on this issue, reviewing the feedback of the owners about the Range Rover Evok.

Very popular versions with "automatic". People driving them say that the automatic transmission is not bad, but at first it can jerk and switch with jerks. Then she gets used to the style of driving a person, her work is getting better. And one has to remember the rule - you need to press on the gas smoothly, but confidently.

Do not ignore the owners and the full drive with the system Terrain Response. On this car you can ride on snow, ice, deep snowdrifts, mud and off-road. The machine on any surface is held confidently and firmly. Adaptive suspension provides excellent road behavior, and clear, well - adjusted steering makes the process of passing corners and maneuvers as simple and problem-free as possible. These same qualities help with parking. Which, thanks to the high clearance and overhangs of bumpers, does not cause any problems.

In the driver's seat

If you pay attention to the feedback of the owners about the car "Range Rover Evok", then you can see that many are at a loss from the driver's seat. If you move into this model with a more powerful SUV, then there will be a lack of a high "commander" landing. Many people get the impression of driving a car, not a powerful jeep. And it's strange, because in all Range Rover cars the driver sits high. However, with time you can get used to it.

There are also questions to the keyless access system. In the Evoque model, the developers decided to abandon the usual buttons on the door handle, because sensor sensors were installed. This is not very convenient, because in the winter hands are cold, and the doors are wet. And it is not always possible to close them. Drivers have to get used to the specifics of sensors.

Also, at first, the beveled racks may interfere. But they are made in this form for better aerodynamics and giving greater expressiveness to the design. Some do not like the small rear window, but it is compensated by large exterior mirrors.

Equipment

Many left about the SUV "Range Rover Evok" reviews of the owners touch the attention and equipping the model.

The praise is awarded to a stereo system with clear, clean and surround sound that accepts any file formats and media. She can play music with at least an iPod, even with a simple smartphone. And does not give any errors.

Even in this machine, excellent navigation with current maps and 2-zone climate control, equipped with an air quality sensor that provides automatic recirculation. But the manual control mode of this function is also available.

An important option is considered by many to be the automatic high-beam switching system, which controls it unerringly. Pleases and adaptive bi-xenon. The beam of light repeats with amazing precision after the steering wheel, which makes it especially comfortable to pass the turns in the dark. But even more important is the blind zone monitoring system . Yes, the mirrors of the car are large, but can not but rejoice the presence of sensors that will always save the driver, warning about the location of the object in one or another place.

Comfort and ergonomics

Two important nuances, information about which contains many left on the "Range Rover Evok" reviews. And first of all people note the attention of the chair. They are the owners put a solid five. But those that are transplanted to the Evoque with BMW, say that in Bavarian cars the seats are more comfortable. However, in the British SUV, the seats are equipped with highly developed lateral and lumbar support, as well as numerous adjustments.

The interior is well thought out, ergonomics is at a decent level. All controls and buttons are where they belong. Thanks to this, drivers quickly get used to orienting themselves "to the touch". Still many consider convenient decision to equip АКПП with a compact "washer" of switching.

The Evoque is a compact car, so that three people will be cramped on the back row of the "Range Rover Ewok" crossover. Reviews, however, make sure that the sofa has the right backrest angle. So two passengers will feel comfortable.

Powertrains

It is about them that most of the information contains reviews about the Land Rover. "Range Rover Ewok" is a powerful car in any modification. Most modern models are offered with diesel units under the hood. But the gasoline engine in the line is also available. And people are completely delighted with him.

After all, we are talking about a 2-liter 240-horsepower turbo unit, offered with a 9-speed "automatic". With this engine under the hood, the model accelerates to "hundreds" in just 7.6 seconds. And its speed limit is limited to 217 km / h. At the same time, the fuel consumption of the engine is small. For 100 "urban" kilometers, only 10.3 liters of fuel goes. And while driving on the highway, the flow rate decreases to 6.4 liters. As you can see, the characteristics of the unit are decent, and one can understand why such good reviews are given by the "Range Rover Ewok".

Diesel is more economical fuel. Units consuming DT in the model range are larger. As an example, you can take a 2-liter 180-horsepower turbocharged engine. With such a motor under the hood, the SUV accelerates to "hundreds" within 9 seconds. And its maximum is limited to 195 km / h. But the consumption is the most economical. For 100 kilometers around the city takes only 6.1 liters. If the machine moves along the road, the flow rate decreases to 4.5 liters.

Exploitation

And about this topic a lot of comments contain the comments about the owners of the "Range Rover Ewok 2016". As practice shows, all power units are reliable. But not without flaws.

Owners of diesel versions complain about the leakage of the oil pan, which can be eliminated by dismantling and replacing the gasket. Even often I have to change the crankshaft rear oil seal. Also, many people, peeking under the hood, discover oil leaks on the intercooler. Because of them, cracks often appear afterwards. And the intercooler has to be replaced. And the owners of diesel versions have to change the timing belt every 130,000 kilometers.

Also, many are disappointed by the difficult start of the engine in the cold season, which is due to weak glow plugs and their control unit. And when the cold ends, some owners begin to worry about a short rumble in the area of the front right wheel. The cause of this sound lies in the falling off gas regulator camshaft. And if a person has noticed an unpleasant sound, then he will have to prepare a considerable sum of money to replace this part, the chain, and also its tensioner. It costs about 2,000 euros.

Brake system

About it, you can also learn a lot of interesting things, paying attention to the feedback of the owners about the "Range Rover Evok". 2015 gave the world of motorists the updated Evoque, and many people who ridden on older versions hoped to see in the restyling version improved brakes. Their expectations were justified. Brakes can put a solid five, but again, the BMXW X5 they are better. So people assure, who have something to compare with. Evoque, in contrast to X5, when stopping "bite your nose."

In general, the brake of this SUV is very sensitive. Some see it as a minus. Because when trying to brake before a turn or leave the engine at the peak of the moment, the revolutions instantly fall. But the brakes do not overheat, it's a fact.

Evoque - a car for the city

Such a conclusion can be made if you carefully examine the feedback of the owners about the Range Rover Evok. 2013, 2015, 2017-in whatever year the model was produced, it always retained its urban character, which manifests itself primarily because of its compactness.

But still it determines the style of riding for which this machine was created. As the experienced owners assure, the car literally tears from its place. And on it it would be desirable to go to conquer free routes and endless highways, instead of impassability. For driving on pits, potholes and fords it is necessary to improve sound insulation and arches.

And in traffic jams the machine is very practical. Not only thanks to the "machine", but also due to planting. It is not as high as that of the same Discovery, but for the city it is enough to consider how things are on the road through a couple of cars in front.

What else do the owners tell?

I would like to pay special attention to the "Range Rover Ewok 2.2" (diesel). Reviews about this model are very diverse. Most likely because it is the most common. It on the Russian roads can be found most often.

So, drivers note the attention to the excellent traction of this engine, its low consumption and good torque, due to which the car easily picks up on the bottoms. True, this engine needs a run-in. Despite the fact that the manufacturers claim the opposite. But the owners recommend after the purchase run-in car, and not only in urban conditions, but also on the highway.

Cons, however, a 2.2-liter unit is also available. Many do not like the vibrations that it produces when it comes to high speeds. However, this nuance discourages mostly those people who moved to the Evoque from gasoline versions. The rest of the engine is good. Its power is enough for this car. Acceleration to 100 km / h confident. Contrary to the expectations of many, and from 100 to 130 Evoque accelerates dynamically. What can not but rejoice, because this feature makes it possible to comfortably carry out overtaking and advancing.

Cost

The price of this car is rather big. But it is also not transcendental. Each dealer sets its own cost, but on average the new model costs from 2,245,000 rubles and more. This is the most inexpensive package and the most simple engine. There are modifications offered for 4 million.

But people who want to save, are advised to buy a car from 2015 with hands. The car will be in excellent condition, almost new, especially run-around. And you can save up to one million rubles.

Conclusion

As you can see, people leave about the SUV "Range Rover Ewok 2016" reviews of a variety of different types. But in general this car suits and pleases its owners. And if you want to buy a compact SUV, the Evoque will be a good choice.

Only it is better to buy a version with an adaptive suspension - so the experienced owners advise. Because with it a person receives the program Dynamic Mode. When it is turned on, the backlight is filled with a pleasant burgundy color, the steering wheel becomes heavy, as if filling, and the suspension acquires sporting rigidity. The car wakes up sporting habits, which is especially appreciated by fans of active, dynamic driving. So it's better to overpay for this option, but then get the most pleasure from the process of driving.
