Interior highlights of the second generation Range Rover Evoque include two touchscreen units, one each for the entertainment system and AC controls, 16-way adjustable seats, fully digital instrument console, cabin air-ionization and a conventional joystick lever that replaces the circular transmission dial. The model rivals against the likes of the Volvo XC40, Mercedes-Benz GLC, Audi Q3 and the BMW X3.
