Land Rover could add a luxury SUV below the compact-sized Evoque, the brand's design director said.

"Certainly, I think we can go smaller," Gerry McGovern told Automotive News Europe when asked about future plans for the premium Range Rover line. "In a world focusing on sustainability you could argue that smaller and lighter is the way to go."

The X1 and Q3 would probably disagree, but ok.
