The Ford is the British Mondial, but I think it's also some Freelander parts, as well. I saw the Evoque in person last month in Stockholm, it looked really smooth, just like the VX first looks conveyed. Is it a worthy successor...time will tell. They are forecasted to sell like Minis, in great numbers. But the whole idea is a crossover that doesn't look like a toaster, just like the VX.
