All the spotlights at Land Rover's Geneva Motor Show stand are pointing towards the Range Rover Evoque Convertible Concept, which made its official debut today. Based on the three-door version of the production Evoque, the study features a fully retractable soft-top with a roll-over protection system and seating for four passengers.
During the presentation of the prototype in Geneva, Land Rover Design Director, Gerry McGovern, said: "We believe that the Evoque lends itself beautifully to the idea of a convertible. From a pure design perspective, we have used Evoque's dramatic shape to create a distinctive and highly desirable proposition."
Land Rover admits that while there are no current plans to put the Evoque convertible into production, it will be gauging reaction to the concept and "listening carefully to feedback".
If it were to be built, it would be offered in both front- and all-wheel drive flavors and share the same range of gasoline and diesel engines with the rest of the Evoque family.
So what do you say; should Land Rover bring this concept to life or should it leave to rest in peace at its museum after it ends its motor show appearances? Have your say in the comments section below.
