RANGE Rover's Evoque range has been topped out with a new P300 HST Edition, which costs from £50,440 and comes with "a stealthy high-performance look inspired by the Range Rover Sport HST," according to its maker.

It builds on the previous £47,980 most expensive Evoque with a sporty look enhanced with the black pack, comprising gloss black Range Rover bonnet script, side vents, bonnet louvres, door mirror caps and exterior accents.

A standard gloss black sliding panoramic roof and privacy glass, plus unique gloss black 20-inch alloy wheels with red brake calipers also set the new HST apart.

The visual links to the Range Rover Sport HST continue inside, where the Evoque P300 HST shares the exclusive suedecloth steering wheel and ebony suedecloth headlining. Other touches include grained leather seat trim, Range Rover treadplates and powered tailgate.

The enhanced specification of the P300 HST includes Land Rover's configurable, high-definition 12.3-inch instrument cluster, able to show a comprehensive array of driving information, navigation instructions and infotainment data.

Pivi Pro infotainment comes with a 10-inch deployable touchscreen and 10-inch lower touchscreen and 13-speaker 400W Meridian Sound System to bring enhanced connectivity and audio quality, while keyless entry and premium LED headlamps are included too.

The P300 HST accelerates from 0-100km/h in 6.8 seconds, thanks to the 300 horsepower output of its 2.0 litre petrol engine. The power is put through a nine-speed automatic gearbox and the car features Land Rover's Terrain Response 2 system, giving this all-wheel drive model trademark Range Rover all-terrain capability.
