Droptop Range Rover Wins the Hearts of Women


Gone are the days that the Range Rover is for the macho men only. Now, women are snapping up Rovers, courtesy of the world’s first compact cabriolet. In the UK, a lot of women buyers signed up for pre-orders for the first Range Rover convertible.

“It’s an incredible level of demand for the first Range Rover convertible from Land Rover – especially as the order books do not even open officially until the spring,” according to a Rover spokesperson. The car’s fold-back soft top may have contributed to the Rover’s popularity among women. It certainly helps that the droptop was made famous by one of the recent Bond girls, Naomie Harris. Bond’s “Miss Moneypenny” unveiled the Evoque Convertible at the Los Angeles Motor Show.

“Moneypenny driving an Evoque Convertible? I think she has this kind of alter-ego which is really glamorous. She’d absolutely love it. Driving around with the top down and the wind blowing in my hair, the sun shining, great music playing, I would be having a ball,” Harris said.
