The Range Rover Evoque may not be as imposing as the Sport or the Discovery->ke511 in its bone-stock form, but take the small SUV->ke145 over to Kahn Design->ke1726 and you'll be driving completely new vehicle once it leaves the shop. Just take a look at the Black Label Edition the Brits launched for the 2013 model year to have a better taste of their craftsmanship.

Sure, the Black Label Edition and its triple-black suit is a tad sober for the Evoque's shape and purpose, but there's more than one way to skin a cat in Kahn's workshop. For instance, the company's most recent attempt at enhancing the Evoque->ke3666 showcases a sportier approach that brings together weight reducing strategies and a flamboyant look.

Cutting weight is achieved with help from a new set of carbon composite bumpers that shave a few pounds off the compact->ke140 crossover->ke288 that now carries a Volcanic Grey wrap. Complementing the new exterior color are a number of matte black body parts, including a trunk spoiler lip, a sump guard, a rear diffuser, and the side vents mounted on the front fenders.

As with most Kahn-badged Range Rovers, the Evoque RS Sport also benefits from a 3D mesh front grille, LED daytime running lights, an extended upper roof wing, and a stainless steel exhaust system.

Land Rover Range Rover Evoque RS Sport By Kahn Design in detail

Improving the vehicle's stance even further are a set of new springs and large gloss black wheels at all four corners. The springs enable the Evoque to sit closer to ground by nearly one inch, while the 22-inch rims wrapped in low-profile tires add to its stealthy appearance without compromising the handling.

In the usual Kahn fashion, the Evoque's cabin is packed with fine, soft-touch materials covering anything from the seats to the center glove box, the roof headline and the transmission tunnel. Everything is re-upholstered perforated black Nappa leather and Alcantara, both augmented by white contrast stitching.

The interior is rounded off by a diamond gear selector, a red speedometer and tachometer, and a pair of machined aluminum pedals.
