Basic warranty on this car is 4 years / 50,000 miles. Only 61.9% of reported failures happen inside it — the remaining 38.1% come out of the owner's pocket. Powertrain cover (4 years / 50,000 miles) reaches further, but it only covers the engine and transmission, which account for about 5% of the complaints here.

On the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, the early trouble is Air Bags and Electrical System — reported at around 1.7 years, so a car still under warranty is the one to check for it. What waits further out is Unknown Or Other at 4.6 years — past every basic warranty, and the bill lands on whoever owns the car then.
