Speaking on the occasion, Rohit Suri, President & Managing Director, Jaguar Land Rover India Ltd (JLRIL), said, “The Range Rover Evoque and Discovery Sport have been tremendously successful in India since their introduction. In their new avatars, both SUVs have quickly captured the imagination and hearts of our customers and fans with their design, technology and luxury. Now with the new BS-VI petrol powertrain we are happy to provide our customers with enhanced choice.”

The petrol Land Rover Range Rover Evoque and the Land Rover Discovery Sport are loaded with the latest technologies such as –

Cabin Air Ionisation: It works with the climate control system by electrically charging air particles, ionising them and removing pollutants and other harmful particles.

ClearSight Rear-view Mirror: If rear visibility is compromised by passengers or bulky items, one may simply flick a switch on the underside of the mirror and a camera feed from the top of the car will display what is behind the vehicle in high definition.

InControl Touch Pro and Touch Pro Duo: The New Range Rover Evoque and Discovery Sport have InControl Touch Pro with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay as standard. In addition, the Range Rover Evoque R-Dynamic SE features Touch Pro Duo that combines an adjustable upper touchscreen with a lower touchscreen that offers an elevated input convenience.

Terrain Response 2: For enhanced off-road capability, Terrain Response 2 automatically detects the surface and adjusts the torque delivery to best suit the conditions, ensuring that one can wade through rivers, climb mountains and reach unexplored places with ease.
