Do you like hearing the roar of the engine as you make your way to your destination? This is the kind of experience you can enjoy every time you get behind the wheel of the Range Rover Evoque or the BMW X3.
Each SUV features a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine underneath its hood that gets around 250 horsepower. The difference here is in the torque since the Range Rover gets 269 lb-ft of torque, while the BMW offers less, at 258 lb-ft.
As part of its powertrain, the Range Rover has a 9-speed automatic transmission. The BMW, on the other hand, has an 8-speed automatic transmission.
One feature that sets the Range Rover apart in the performance realm is the available 3D Surround Camera with ClearSight Ground View, which not only provides a 360-degree view of your surroundings but also essentially allows you to see through the hood and the underside of the vehicle as you drive.
Driving the Range Rover Evoque or the BMW X3 is a fun experience on its own. It can be even better when you add amazing infotainment technology! Let’s find out which model has the superior infotainment system.
Inside each vehicle, you’ll find an immersive infotainment touchscreen: 11.4 inches in the Evoque and a smaller, 10.3-inch screen in the X3. You’ll have access to many similar standard features such as wireless Bluetooth®, Apple CarPlay®, and Android Auto™ capabilities.
For a more immersive driving experience, the Range Rover standardly features the award-winning next-generation Pivi Pro infotainment system, which features an artificial intelligence component that includes self-learning navigation.
As part of the infotainment features in the Evoque and the X3, you’ll find high-quality sound systems. The Evoque can reach up to 14 speakers in its cabin with the Meridian™ Surround Sound System with 650 watts. The BMW, when optionally equipped with the Harman Kardon® Surround Sound Audio System, comes with a similar number of speakers; however, it lacks the same power since it only has 600 watts and excludes the sound engineering technology of the Range Rover Evoque.
When you’re out and about, it’s important to feel comfortable in your ride. Part of that comfort comes from feeling safe, which is what the Evoque and the X3 set out to provide every day. You can drive confidently, knowing these models will help protect you on the road.
Both the Evoque and the X3 will help keep you safe. With these models, you’ll have access to many similar safety technology features, including:
While these models share these similarities, not all of the above features are standard on the X3. These features, and more, are found on every Range Rover Evoque model.
One feature that really makes the Evoque stand out is its Driver Condition Monitor. This system monitors your driving habits, and if it senses that you’re tired or distracted, it will recommend that you take a break from driving.
Having the Range Rover Evoque or the BMW X3 as your 4-wheeled companion opens a world of seemingly endless possibilities. However, the team at Land Rover Baton Rouge believes the Evoque is the right choice based on its better performance features and more intuitive technology.
