How many liters of engine oil does the Land Rover Evoque require?
2 Answers
Land Rover Evoque requires 5.6 liters of engine oil. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves multiple functions such as lubrication and friction reduction, auxiliary cooling, sealing and leak prevention, rust and corrosion protection, as well as shock absorption. Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary constituent of lubricating oil, determining its fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and enhance the shortcomings of the base oil, providing certain new characteristics, making them an essential part of lubricating oil. The Land Rover Evoque is a more compact SUV model within the Land Rover brand, with dimensions of 4371mm in length, 1904mm in width, and 1649mm in height, a wheelbase of 2681mm, seating for five, and a curb weight of 1955kg.
I've driven several Range Rover Evoques, and the maintenance manual states around 5.7 liters, but the actual oil change depends on the engine version. My 2022 2.0T model requires 5.8 liters to be sufficient. First, pour in 5.5 liters, start the engine and let it run for a few minutes, then check the dipstick and slowly top it up to the middle line. Remember, you must use full synthetic oil with 0W-20 or 5W-30. Last time, a friend tried to save money by using regular oil, and the engine rattled during cold starts. After just 1,000 kilometers, he had to change it again, which ended up costing more. Different year models might vary by about 0.3 liters, so it's best to let the mechanic drain the old oil completely during maintenance and confirm the amount before refilling.
