The idea behind 2013 Launch of the new Range Rover Evoque was executed as a social experiment. The brief for the car designers was to build a car with presence. To see if they fulfilled the brief we created The Presence Project. We parked the never before seen car in the middle of the busiest places in the world and let the cameras roll.
