Never understood SUV convertibles, I hope someday someone builds a truck convertible. :dopey:
 
There's nothing wrong here that couldn't be fixed by buying a Defender for a top down SUV instead.

SU

Who on earth looked at the Murano convertible and thought "I with Land Rover would do that!"?

Seriously Uncool.

Leave it to Chrysler to have done it...
 
Honestly, I kind of like it. Unlike the Murano, the Evoque is genuinely good off road and is reasonably premium, making it feel a little more special. It'll sell well, but I don't think it's cool.

Somebody didn't tell Land Rover that Nissan already did this. Look how well it turned out for them.

I don't know what Nissan was thinking with the Murano convertible, and I don't know what Land Rover was thinking with the Evoque convertible. If they're trying to create a new niche of convertible SUVs to go along with SUV "coupes" like the X6 and GLE Coupe, it doesn't seem to be working. I don't really hate the Murano or Evoque convertibles, it's just that they're too niched for their own good.
 
When it's freezing cold....... why don't I just put the roof down and catch hypothermia.
 
The answer to the question no one ever asked.
 
I actually don't mind the looks of the convertible SUVs, it's just that to me, convertibles and SUVs don't go hand-in-hand. This is also a modern Land Rover, and thus rapper heaven (though not as much as chrome-wrapped Lambos or Bugattis).

Your name would have to be G-Money or something to drive this car.
 
Motorised spittoon. SU.

I don't count that thing as a truck, it's closer to a ute than a truck.
 
The SSR was a convertible hardtop truck built on a truck platform. It's a truck.

As for the Evoque: easy SU, really.
 
Do you know who's going to buy this? All of the rich crowd - all the 'cool' people - and everyone who wants to be like them because they're cool.

This is just about the very definition of a cool car: a car that 'cool' people will buy and people who want to be like them will want.

...except those guys on the Internet forum about a driving simulation video game who think any race car is uncool.

Just cause I don't consider it one doesn't mean it isn't. I just never saw it as one even despite that.
 
It's like a modern version of the Suzuki Vitara, except now with more removable roof.

Meh.
 
I like it. Quite a lot, actually.
 
It's not cool, but I actually quite like it.
 
No. No.

No, no, no, no, no.

NO.

(did I mention no?)

SU. Really really really REALLY uncool.

As in as bad as the pink Micra...

 
Makes more sense to me than the standard Evoque, and with the top down it looks better too.
 
I only needed to see the title to know to hit SU.

Please learn from this and the Murano. Don't do this.
