On 26 November 2004, Land Rover released the first photographs of the Range Rover Sport, a new model it planned to show to the public for the first time at the 2005 North American International Auto Show. The Range Rover Sport is a production car development of the Range Stormer
concept vehicle the company showcased in the 2004 North American
International Auto Show. Though called the Range Rover Sport, it was not
merely a new specification within the Range Rover line-up, but rather
an entirely new vehicle, based on the Discovery/LR3 chassis. This model was released for sale in late 2005 as a 2006 model.Range Rover Evoque

The Range Rover Evoque, which went into production in July 2011, has its roots in the Land Rover LRX concept car;
with which it bears an almost identical resemblance. It is available
with either a three-door or five-door hatchback body, front-wheel drive
or four-wheel drive and with a 2-litre turbocharged petrol engine or one
of two different power output 2.2-litre turbo-diesel engines.In 2012, at the Geneva Motor Show, Land Rover unveiled a convertible concept, which featured four seats and a drop-down tailgate.[11]
Criticism
The Range Rover brand has attracted some controversy,[12] particularly from those concerned with the potential negative environmental impact of large, luxury vehicles. In 2005, members of Greenpeace temporarily disrupted Range Rover production at the Land Rover plant in Solihull.[13]In 2004, Spen King criticised SUV owners who drove their vehicles in urban areas, saying that vehicles like the Range Rover he created were "never intended as a status symbol but later incarnations of my design seem to be intended for that purpose."[14]
