Land Rover has announced it will officially unveil the new Range Rover Evoque SW1 Special Edition at the upcoming 2014 Paris Motor Show.
Dubbed as the “first in a series of ‘Inspired by Britain’ special editions from Jaguar Land Rover,” the SUV is offered in Loire Blue, Santorini Black, Fuji White, Firenze Red or Corris Grey, along with a Fuji white roof and 20-inch alloy wheels with Fuji finish.
Stylish Union Flag graphics feature on the rear spoiler and the white door mirror housings, while white tick decals also adorn the bodywork – changed to red for the Fuji White paint option.
The cabin continues the theme with Taurus Ebony leather upholstery, door inserts, arm rests and facia trim picked out with contrast Cirrus stitching and anodized red accents. The crossover is additionally fitted with a unique gear knob (manual models only), special sill plates and unique floor mats. There will also be a Monochrome variant based on the Evoque Pure and features monotone Union Jack graphics.
Land Rover says that besides the new Range Rover Evoque SW1 Special Edition, the Evoque can now be ordered with a laser head-up display, which has been created in order to resist sunlight and to deliver “superior colour saturation, brightness and contrast compared to rival systems.”
The Evoque SW1 is said to go on sale globally in mid-October. South African availability is yet to be confirmed.
