Land Rover is celebrating the sale of over 520,000 Range Rover Evoques with the introduction of a facelift for the popular premium vehicle.

The brand also plans to release a special edition model known as the Ember Limited Edition.

Land Rover is introducing an exclusive special edition of its fastest selling model, the Halewood-built Range Rover Evoque.

Black Pack elements including Satin Black 20-inch alloy wheels, Dynamic black exhaust finishers, Dynamic Narvik Black grille and darkened front and rear lights give the Ember a more purposeful appearance. The headlights feature adaptive LEDs and self-levelling.

Step inside and you can see the ebony seats with red topstitching along with black and red carpet mats and the trims done in glossy black.

Having won over 182 worldwide awards since its launch in 2011, the Evoque is widely regarded as the world’s most desirable luxury compact SUV. It’s a manually selectable driver mode that aims to deliver the optimum pull-away/launch on a low friction surface.

It controls the amount of torque that the driver can apply, thus preventing wheel spin and maximising the potential driving force that can be achieved given the conditions.

Elsewhere in the range, HSE Dynamic trim – which starts at £41,400 – and above get the aforementioned new InControl Touch pro infotainment system, in-car wi-fi, access to the InControl mobile apps and All Terrain Progress Control (on cars with an automatic gearbox).

Also new for the 2017 model year is the next-generation InControl Touch Pro infotainment, standard on the HSE Dynamic, HSE Dynamic Lux and Autobiography trim levels.

The Ember, priced at $93,499 plus on-road costs, will be available to order over the three months June to August. New features include a streetview map and a customizable home screen.

It uses a familiar pan and pinch to zoom controls on a 10.2in 1280×542 pixel resolution screen – an 80% improvement over the Evoque’s standard 8in touchscreen – and includes 3D mapping, birds’ eye view navigation, and new Touch Pro technology.
