The Evoque L538 is Land Rover’s stylish compact SUV, blending premium design with mild-hybrid tech.

Known for its Terrain Response 2 system and upscale interior, it’s a city-friendly SUV with occasional off-road chops.

1. Price Ranges (EUR, Mid-2024)

Standard Models (Petrol/Diesel)

• High-Mileage/Modified (80,000+ km): €22,000 – €28,000
  (Watch for neglected maintenance or aftermarket tuning.)
• Well-Maintained (40,000–80,000 km): €30,000 – €38,000
  (Full dealer history preferred, especially for diesel DPFs.)
• Low-Mileage/Near-New (<30,000 km): €40,000 – €50,000
  (CPO warranty adds €3k–€5k value.)

Plug-in Hybrid (P300e, 2020+)

• Used PHEV (30,000–60,000 km): €35,000 – €45,000
  (Battery health check essential—below 70% capacity? Negotiate hard.)

Special Editions

• R-Dynamic Black (2021+): +€5k–€8k over base trim.
• First Edition (2019 Launch Model): €45,000–€55,000 (if <20,000 km).

2. Key Factors Affecting Value

✅ Provenance & Spec

• One-owner lease returns: Typically well-maintained.
• Full Land Rover service history: +€2k–€4k vs. independent.

✅ Desirable Options

• Meridian sound system: +€1k.
• Cold Climate Pack (heated seats/steering wheel): +€1.5k.
• Panoramic roof: +€2k.

⚠️ Critical Watch-Outs

• Timing chain issues (early petrol Ingenium engines): Listen for rattling at startup.
• Electrical gremlins: Check all infotainment/screen functions.
• Corrosion on door seals: Common in Nordic climates.

3. Where to Buy in the EU?

Official Channels

• Land Rover Approved Used (best for warranty coverage).
• Lease returns (often at Jaguar Land Rover dealers).

Private Sales

• Autoscout24/Mobile.de (largest EU inventories).
• UK auctions (post-Brexit bargains, but import taxes apply).

Pro Tip: German-registered diesel Evoques usually have better maintenance logs than Italian-market petrols.

4. Market Trends

📉 Depreciation Curve

• Petrol models lose 25% in Year 1, then stabilize.
• Diesel demand fading in cities (ULEZ impacts).

⚠️ Trap Warning

• "Flood cars" from 2021 EU floods: Check for mold/musty smells.
• Ex-rental Evoques: Often have hidden curb rash.

5. Must-Do Checks

🔧 Mechanical

• Transmission jerks? (ZF 9-speed issues if fluids neglected).
• Hybrid battery test (PHEVs should deliver ~40km real-world electric range).

📄 Paperwork

• Verify "InControl Pro" subscription status (lapsed? €600/yr renewal).
• Check for outstanding recalls (common for fuel pumps/software).

Fun Fact:

The Evoque’s floating roof design was inspired by a yacht—making it the only SUV with a "nautical" trim option!
