The Range Rover Evoque has taken home two trophies from the 2012 Diesel Car Awards, being named both 'Best Crossover' and overall 'Car of the Year'.

Land Rover also saw success in other categories, with the Discovery 4 winning the 'Best 4x4 Award' for the third year running, ahead of the firm's own Range Rover.

The editor of Diesel Car, Ian Robertson, said, "Already an icon, the Evoque combines stunning design and brilliant engineering to great effect."

The Evoque has been a huge success for Land Rover and has won 112 worldwide awards to date. Laura Schwab, Land Rover UK Marketing Director, praised the Evoque on its continued success and highlighted the Evoque's impressive emissions and economy figures:

"We are delighted that Range Rover Evoque continues to set standards for design, engineering and performance right around the world. With the lowest CO2 figure of any Land Rover of 129g/km, from the efficient 2.2 eD4 diesel engine, this latest award from Diesel Car Magazine is a further demonstration of Land Rover's continuous focus on technology and customer requirements."
