Land Rover has chosen an aggressive pricing strategy for the new Range Rover Evoque, starting the range below the all-important £30,000 threshold. To put that in perspective, BMW's X3 now starts from £31,135, with the smaller X1 beginning at £24,265, so with an entry-level Evoque available from £27,955 the choice available to customers has never been better.
