Land Rover has discontinued the three-door Range Rover Evoque due to lacklustre sales.
“From the 2019 model year, Land Rover has rationalised its Range Rover Evoque body style offering to concentrate on the five-door model and convertible, which account for the majority of sales,” a spokesperson for the Whitley-based brand said, according to Autocar.
The British report added that although Land Rover had yet to indicate whether the upcoming second-generation Evoque would be offered in coupé guise, this latest development suggested it “almost certainly” wouldn’t be.
At the time of writing, the coupé-style version of the Range Rover Evoque was still listed on Land Rover South Africa’s website, accounting for four out of the 17 local derivatives on offer.
In May 2018, Land Rover SA sold 25 examples of the Evoque, although it’s not clear how many of these were in the three-door body style.
