Is the Land Rover Evoque domestically produced or imported?
2 Answers
Land Rover Evoque is available in both imported and domestically produced versions. Here is an introduction to the Land Rover Evoque: Introduction: The Range Rover Evoque is the most compact SUV model in the Land Rover brand. As the production version of the Land Rover LRX concept car, it is positioned slightly above the Freelander series. Product Planning: Land Rover planned to launch a larger Range Rover Evoque model in 2015. The increasing sales of BMW X series and Audi Q series models have also prompted Land Rover to expand its Range Rover lineup, with the development of a model positioned between the Range Rover Evoque and the Range Rover Sport.
I remember the Range Rover Evoque, in China, it has both domestically produced and imported versions. Most of the Evoques you see on the streets are domestically produced, manufactured locally by the joint venture Chery Jaguar Land Rover, with localization starting around 2012. The domestic version is much more affordable, starting at around 300,000 RMB, and has a wide service network, making repairs and parts easier to find—last time I helped a friend fix their car, it was done quickly without the hassles of imports. Of course, the imported Evoque is also available, shipped directly from the UK, possibly with more authentic configurations, but the price is significantly higher, starting at over 500,000 RMB after adding tariffs and shipping costs. I think if you're on a tight budget, go for the domestic version—the quality isn't bad; if you want to pursue brand purity, the imported version is pretty cool too. Don’t forget to check the vehicle’s nameplate or ask the salesperson to clarify before making a decision.
