Land Rover Range Rover Evoque
NHTSA safety across every Land Rover Range Rover Evoque model year we cover.
Across the 6 model years of the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque we cover (2019 to 2025), no year has an NHTSA crash-test score on record. 22 recalls have been issued across those years.
The Land Rover Range Rover Evoque is a compact luxury SUV that slots into one of the most competitive segments in the market. Aimed at urban professionals and style-conscious buyers who want genuine off-road credibility in a premium, city-friendly package, the Evoque carries the Range Rover name into more accessible price territory without fully abandoning the brand's rugged heritage.
From a pure safety-data standpoint, the Range Rover Evoque presents a frustrating gap for shoppers who rely on federal crash-test results to guide their decisions. Across the 2019 through 2025 model years we cover, NHTSA has not crash-tested this vehicle, meaning there is no star rating and no Safety Index score to anchor our assessment. That absence alone is a meaningful data point. Buyers cannot lean on federal numbers here the way they can with many competing compact luxury SUVs. What we do have is a recall count of 7 across those covered years, which is a moderate figure for a six-year window in this segment. Shoppers should verify whether any open recalls apply to a specific vehicle they are considering, using NHTSA's free VIN lookup tool before purchase. Owner complaints logged with NHTSA total 74 across covered years, a relatively modest volume. Within those complaints, one crash and two fire-related allegations have been reported, along with one injury allegation. These are unverified claims, but fire-related complaints in any quantity deserve attention, and prospective buyers should review the specific complaint narratives on NHTSA's database. The honest bottom line: the Evoque is a genuinely appealing vehicle in its segment, but the absence of federal crash-test data is a real limitation. If independent crash-test coverage and federal star ratings are priorities for you, this model leaves that question unanswered.
WHAT REVIEWERS SAYReviewers generally regard the Evoque as one of the more stylish and visually distinctive entries in the compact luxury SUV class, praising its upscale interior materials, refined on-road composure, and premium feel. Most note that the driving experience leans toward comfort over sportiness. Some reviewers flag that the infotainment system and interior execution can feel inconsistent relative to the asking price.
- NHTSA has not crash-tested the Range Rover Evoque in any of the 2019 through 2025 model years we cover, so there are no federal star ratings available to help evaluate occupant protection.
- Seven recalls have been issued across the covered model years. Always run a VIN check on NHTSA's website before purchasing to confirm whether any recalls remain open and unaddressed on a specific vehicle.
- Owner complaints filed with NHTSA include two fire-related allegations across covered years. While these are unverified, shoppers should review the full complaint text on NHTSA's database to understand the nature and context of those reports.
- With 74 total owner complaints across six model years and one reported crash allegation, the complaint volume is relatively low, but the lack of crash-test data means shoppers have limited federal safety information to work with compared to many rivals in this segment.
