First ever modern SUV convertible from Land Rover.

More than three years after Land Rover unveiled the concept version, the production-spec Range Rover Evoque Convertible has finally made its digital debut. It will make its public debut at the 2015 Los Angeles Motor Show this month, which is likely to be one of Land Rover's target markets for its first-ever compact convertible SUV.

The Evoque Convertible adopts a soft-top power-operated roof that folds down completely in 18 seconds at max speeds of up to 30 mph. The option of folding the roof down is likely to solve the regular Evoque’s average rear visibility, when backing up against an object.

The exterior design is based on the facelifted 2016 Range Rover Evoque that debuted at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show. It gets optional LED headlamps with the new DRL design, updated bumpers and new LED taillamps. The convertible gets an exclusive moulded rear spoiler.

The engine lineup will be carried over from the regular Evoque, which was updated earlier this year as part of the 2016 Evoque facelift. The Evoque convertible will be offered with a range of 2.0-liter Ingenium diesel engines that range between 180 PS or 150 PS, and a 2.0-liter Si4 petrol engine. It is paired to a 9-speed automatic gearbox, and will be equipped with an AWD system with Terrain Response.
