This is what I heard from an ex dealer:

They created the RR Sport on the platform of the Discovery becouse the Big RR became to expensive for most buyers.

They now created the Evoque becouse the RR Sport became to expensive.

I don't know if it's all true tough, but he claims it's a strategy thing to keep their loyal buyers.

But the new Evoque is smaller than the FL2.

Not sure if this is old news but just read an article "Land Rover to build Baby Rover". Looks like there's a growing market for X1, Q3 lovers. So I wonder if this will replace FL2, if so what's going to become of FL?
