The Eastern Company, the Range Rover importer, begins marketing the 2014 models of the Range Rover Evoque. The renewed model lands in Israel about six months after a slight facelift was revealed, which updates the design, albeit slightly, but still with significant news, mainly in the technical specifications, where you will find a new automatic transmission with no less than 9 transmission ratios. This is the first vehicle in Israel equipped with a 9-speed transmission, and even abroad, only Mercedes has introduced such a transmission for one of the E-Class series models.
The 2014 Iveco will be equipped with the familiar 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine, which produces 240 hp and is equipped with all-wheel drive. The new transmission is made by ZF. The company says that this is the fastest transmission they have ever created, with gear shifts so smooth and fast that you won't feel the shifts.
In addition, its management system is equipped with learning features that sample the driver's driving style and adapt gear shifts to temperament. Furthermore, the manufacturer promises improved fuel consumption, reduced pollutant emissions, and a quieter ride than before.
The vehicle's equipment now includes advanced equipment that will be offered as an option, such as an automatic parking system that can park parallel to the sidewalk and at 90 degrees to the sidewalk. A system for detecting cars in the "dead" zone, wading depth sensors for water obstacles, and more.
The Range Rover Evoque is considered the company's most important model today. The price of 2014 models starts at 404,000 NIS.
