2012 Hamann Range Rover Evoque

(from Hamann Press Release)  HAMANN transforms the Range Rover Evoque into a sporty deluxe SUV

Since 1986, HAMANN Motorsport has been developing and producing attractive vehicle modifications for discerning customers. The latest creation by the south-German company is based on the Range Rover Evoque. Perfect craftsmanship and advanced technology characterise the masculine aerodynamics package and the powerful engine performance enhancements. Striking XXL rims fill out the significantly enlarged wheel arches, and an exclusive interior suite completes the customisation.

The HAMANN designer outfit gives the small Range Rover a significant boost in presence, making it an exclusive eye-catcher both on- and off-road. The precise craftsmanship and flawless surface finish pay testament to the quality of the aerodynamics package. The two-part front spoiler is an essential component of the vehicle's dynamic front construction. The HAMANN SUV gains its pronounced masculine look thanks to side wing extensions. Supplemented by the side sill set, these widen the series body by 70 millimetres at the front axle and 80 millimetres at the rear axle. The HAMANN central rear panel rounds off the car's confident look and makes room for the resounding double-pipe stainless-steel muffler.

Besides excellent sound, the renowned specialist places particular value on a rich performance increase. The combination of the HAMANN components, including a high-performance exhaust system, sports air filter and optimised engine performance graph, results in a profound power increase for the various drive units. The engine powers of the 2.2 TD4 and the 2.2 ED4 increase by 31 PS / 25 kW, and the torque increases by 65 Nm. The power of the 2.2 Si4 increases by 38 PS / 31 kW, and the torque increases by 55 Nm.

HAMANN's rims programme presents itself as being completely adapted to the individual needs of the Evoque clientele. Be it a striking sporty look or something more elegant and luxurious – HAMANN offers a varied range of wheel designs and sizes.

A one-piece 22-inch wheel is offered under the names ANNIVERSARY EVO and ANNIVERSARY EVO Black line. The recommended wheel-tyre combination for this exclusive rim design is 10.5Jx22-inch on the front and rear axle with 295/30ZR22 tyres.

Another highlight of the range is the three-part HAMANN aluminium wheel by the name of EDITION RACE "ANODIZED". The anthracite-anodized wheel star and the titanium bolting of the mirror-finished rim flange emphasise the car's sporty character. Manufacturing with forging technology makes the wheel especially light, and the reduced, unsprung masses improve both acceleration and brake response.

For adequate grip, HAMANN Motorsport recommended high-performance tyres from technology partner Dunlop.

In the interior, too, HAMANN customers have something to look forward to. HAMANN Motorsport offers a comprehensive product range as a supplement to the existing factory-fitted interior features. This ranges from personalised floor mats to flawlessly finished full-leather upholstery. Perfectly handcrafted stitching on the dashboard and seats accents the interior design and completes the strikingly attractive overall look.
