The Range Rover Evoque Bicycle is Literally Green
Michael Hines — February 6, 2012 — Autos
Land Rover is going ultra-green with the new Range Rover Evoque bicycle. This pedal-powered Evoque is a mobile wireframe sculpture that looks nearly identical to the award-winning Evoque. The Evoque bicycle was commissioned by Land Rover Brazil chief Flavio Padovan after seeing a single seat Evoque bicycle rolling around the UK.
The Range Rover Evoque bicycle was built by Propower Sao Paulo. The bike is more luxurious than you might expect with its leather seats and handbrake all lifted from an actual Evoque. The body of the SUV has been expertly recreated and is a near-replica of Land Rover's much lauded SUV, save for the fact that it's made from metal piping. Here's hoping that bicycle renting shops begin requesting quad-bikes designed in the shape of cars. I'd take a bike tour in a Range Rover any day.
