Questions this answer covers
- Does Range Rover Evoque fit under €60,000?
- Yes. At €55,000 it leaves €5,000 of headroom, and the budget was treated as a hard ceiling — nothing above it was allowed to win.
- How does it cope with towing?
- On the measures that matter for towing it scores 57/100 against a field average of 26/100, with 850 km between stops and running costs of about €230/mo a month.
- Why a plug-in hybrid?
- The question fixed the fuel, so only plug-in hybrid models were eligible — Range Rover Evoque is the one that scored highest among them.
