Range Rover Evoque and Audi Q5 are two vehicles that are simply redefining the SUV form as we know it, with their elegant design and high performance. Range Rover Evoque is the compact SUV manufactured by the iconic performance auto manufacturer Land Rover that simply stands out at driving experience, agility and looks. On the other hand, Audi Q5 is a crossover SUV that provides the driving appeal of a sedan and the versatility of an SUV. It seems the Gaydon based British car maker and the Zwickau based German car maker are at loggerheads over the lucrative SUV market around the world.
The Range Rover Evoque is powered by a 2.0 liter turbocharged four cylinder engine that can deliver 237 hp at 5500 rpm and the maximum torque of 340 pound feet at 1750 rpm.

Land Rover, one of the oldest four-wheel drive car manufacturers in the world, is known for the off-roadies that it manufactures. When it comes to mid-sized SUVs Land Rover simply stands out among the other brands of great repute. The credibility Land Rover commands is evident with the fact that in the year 1992 Land Rover claimed that 70% of its vehicles that it ever built were still in use. This British car manufacturer is owned by an Indian company Tata Motors. Similarly Land Rover has had a number of owners over the course of its history.
Land Rover is known for launching new features and improvements for all its vehicles every model year. The environment police around the world have been becoming increasingly stringent and car manufacturers have to contribute a lot in this area. In order to keep itself on the safer side, Land Rover has taken a number of steps to lower its carbon fingerprints. The Land Rover Freelander 2 comes with two options for engine. The petrol version V6 comes with a 3.2 L engine that generates 230 bhp and 233 lb-ft which enables it to sprint 0 to 100 kilometers in a matter of 8.4 seconds. The diesel version Turbo-diesel Four is rather a 2.2 L engine that generates lesser power and torque but happens to be excellent at fuel economy. On the other hand, the Range Rover Sport has a powerful 3.0 Liter turbo-diesel V6 engine. It comes loaded with a ZF eight speed automatic transmission. The new eight gear transmission is certainly a sigh of relief for the Britons as British SUVs infamously gulp a huge amount of diesel.

The specialist in four-wheel drive vehicles, Land Rover is one of the world’s oldest four-wheel-drive car manufacturers. The British car manufacturer is among the most highly reputed brands when it comes to the iconic off roadies. There is a lot to look forward to in the 2012 models of Land Rover. The 2012 model of Land Rover Defender promises some great upgrades that many of its fans have been waiting for.
2012 Land Rover Defender betters the 2.4 Liter engine that had EU4 rating which is actually quite a respected figure by replacing it with the all new 2.2 Liter engine boasting of EU5 rating. Having the EU5 rating, Defender does ensure that it complies with stronger emission norms and guidelines for various types of Nitrogen, Carbon and other harmful oxides. This environment friendliness is a result of the inclusion of improved engine management systems that Land Rover has put in place. However these environment friendly attributes does not have the company compromise it on its performance, power or efficiency. The new engine remains at par with the older version on all these parameters. So the consumer does not have to settle down with lowered driving standards. The 2.2 Liter engine cranks up the same 122 horsepower at 3500 rpm power and 360 NM at 2000 rpm, just like the older version. But this is not all. The smaller engine betters the top speed to 90 miles per hour which is way better than what one could expect from the 2.4 Liter engine. Nonetheless the acceleration remains pretty much the same. The gear box is a real marvel. It gives you extraordinary control on slow as well as fast speeds. This also becomes very effective on fuel economy.
