REFINEMENTS FOR RANGE ROVER EVOQUE

STARTECH, a BRABUS Group company, refines the new Range Rover Evoque with a sporty-elegant design program, which celebrates its world debut at the 2011 Dubai International Motor Show.

For the three-door and five-door Evoque the STARTECH designers have developed a styling program designed predominantly for on-road operation. It lends the newcomer even more carlike character. All body components are manufactured in OEM quality from high-grade Pur-R-Rim plastics. The product lineup also includes custom-tailored 21-inch forged wheels, a ride-height lowering by 35 millimeters (1.4 in.), a sport exhaust system and high-class interior options. Additional innovative products such as for example engine tuning are currently under development. The performance kit for the 2.0-liter SI4 gasoline engine that normally produces 240hp (176.6 kW) is already in the final stages of development.
For this purpose new fasciae were shaped for the front and rear that replace the production bumpers in their entirety. The shape was fine-tuned in the wind tunnel to further reduce lift on the front axle, which benefits directional stability at high speeds. The new rear fascia impresses with more than just an integrated diffuser, it also features distinctive tailpipes that can be combined with the production exhaust or with the STARTECH stainless-steel rear muffler.
Another focus of the refinement program for this model is on the interior. The program comprises attractive accessories such as an ergonomically shaped sport steering wheel and aluminum pedals, foot rest and shifter. The finest leather and Alcantara can be transformed into a tasteful cockpit in any desired color and with any upholstery design. The perfect complements are wood or carbon-fiber trim sets in any desired color and with a wide variety of surface finishes. The resulting overall ambiance is either extremely luxurious or markedly sporty depending on customer preference. The show car for Dubai sports an all-leather interior of especially soft and breathable black and white leather, sets itself further apart with diamond-shaped precision topstitching.
