2020 Range Rover Evoque vs Telluride

[sportsguy]

Any thoughts on 2020 Range Rover Evoque vs. 2020 Telluride? I realize the size + interior space is quite different, and overall class levels quite different. Any prior Range Rover owners looking at Telluride?

I love both interiors and exterior looks but trying to decide which to lease ?

The new design of the Evogue is great vs the previous , the Velar is coming through in spades ! But clearly it is much smaller , if size and functionality is not key for you it might be OK ..............BUT the quality and reliability of Range/Land Rovers is really questionable ..................

As a former Evoque owner 2012, I can say it was the most reliable RR I've ever owner...that being said it was not bullet proof and reliable is used loosely with RR. At 60k miles it was burning 3 qts of oil between oil changes!!

I originally went in to my car shopping exploration with the intent of purchasing one of 3 vehicles; Volvo XC90, Audi Q7 or a Land Rover. I love the look of land rover but have friends who have one and told me not to buy unless I am prepared to hand of at least $1K every time I go in for service. The Audi and the Volvo I love everything about them and was leaning toward the Audi. However, once I saw the videos for the Telluride I decided to put my search on hold and the first time I saw it I could not longer justify the extra $20K just for the name sake. As long as my Telluride holds up then I am a happy KIA customer for a long time. The only down fall and I experience this with my wifes Genesis G80 sport is that we got spoiled with BMW service after owning a 2016 435i and now I compare every service experience to that but if I only need routine maintenance then I do not have to visit that often but it is night and day difference.

I have a 2016 BMW and a 2014 Kia Sorento. I like the Kia service better. They are friendly, quick, honest and much cheaper.

Well that’s going to be the issue/problem with service if you are coming from a “luxury” brand. No loaner cars, no lattes served by a concierge and prob no free washes or detail before giving back.
Bu5 hey, if it don’t need to go back much,I can live with that....I’d be hoping/betting that it doesn’t have to go back much...(Hopefully!)....

Pulled up next to Evoque in my Telluride today. Evoque seemed half the size as Telluride and Telluride has the profile of larger Range Rover.

We seriously considered buying an Audi Q7 but ended up with the Telluride SX with the prestige package. After 30 days we love the Telluride more now than ever and we think it is the best vehicle we have ever owned. We live an hour or more from any Kia dealers so looked at about a dozen dealers before we found our vehicle. It turns out that our Kia dealer is matching or exceeding our experience with the high end brand vehicles by offering a free car wash with service, complimentary beverages in a beautiful building, and complimentary shuttle service for shopping etc. Another Kia dealer was prepared to come and pick up our vehicle in our home for service and leave a loaner vehicle. So not all Kia dealers are alike, many offer outstanding service and amenities. It pays to look around if you have a choice of dealers.
