Land Rover has revealed a convertible version of its Evoque crossover, which will be priced from £47,500 when it goes on sale in the spring.
Two egines are available in new model - the third bodystyle of the Evoque to go on sale. Diesel power is provided by the firm's 180hp 2.0-litre Ingenium engine, which returns 55.0mpg and emits 149g/km of CO2.
Petrol power, meanwhile, comes from the company's 240hp 2.0-litre unit, which emits 201g/km of CO2 and returns 32.9 mpg.
Four-wheel-drive and a nine-speed transmission are both optional while a suite of off-roading tools - Terrain Response, Wade Sensing and All-Terrain Progress Control - are also available.
Land Rover claims the model's fabric roof can be folded in 18 seconds, and raised in 21 seconds at speeds up to 30mph. The British firm also claims that the vehicle's 251-litre loadspace remains the same whether the roof is up or down.
Inside, the vehicle features a 10.2-inch touchscreen media system whichoffers smartphone integration, navigation, 3G connectivity and a high-end sound system.
"The Range Rover Evoque Convertible is a vehicle for all seasons. Its uniquely distinctive design and world-class engineering adds another dimension to the Range Rover family, further enhancing its desirability and appeal," said Gerry McGovern, Land Rover design director and chief creative officer.
