Cold means the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque has stood at least three hours, or covered less than about a mile. Heat from a dual carriageway run is not the number you set. Size estimates on this page include 245/40R18, 225/50R17 and 195/65R15 — interpolated from the catalogue midpoint, not a second factory sticker. Keep side-to-side spread inside about 2 psi so the four-wheel drive hardware is not working on a radius mismatch.
Temperature and a cold gauge
Roughly 1 psi per 5–6 °C. The table uses 34 psi as a 20 °C baseline for this Range Rover Evoque.
| Ambient | Gauge (front mid) | Bar | kPa | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| −5 °C (hard frost) | 31 psi | 2.14 bar | 214 kPa | Gauge reads low; do not overfill once warm |
| 0 °C | 32 psi | 2.21 bar | 221 kPa | Gauge reads low; do not overfill once warm |
| 8 °C (UK winter morning) | 33 psi | 2.28 bar | 228 kPa | Gauge reads low; do not overfill once warm |
| 20 °C (set cold here) | 34 psi | 2.34 bar | 234 kPa | Baseline |
| 30 °C | 36 psi | 2.48 bar | 248 kPa | Do not bleed a hot tyre |
| 38 °C (heatwave tarmac) | 37 psi | 2.55 bar | 255 kPa | Do not bleed a hot tyre |
How to set the Range Rover Evoque
- Measure before the school run, not after the M25.
- Write LF / RF / RR / RL. Do not keep Range Rover Evoque numbers in your head.
- Add air in short bursts toward 34 psi (2.31 bar) front and 34 psi rear.
- If one corner is 4 psi down, hunt for a nail before you blame the weather.
- Log date, ambient temperature and the four readings.

If the Land Rover sticker is painted over, the handbook is next. This website is a map, not a replacement VIN label.
Estimated pressure by tyre size (245/40R18 and others)
If your Land Rover Range Rover Evoque no longer wears the OEM diameter, start at the row nearest 245/40R18 or 225/50R17 and confirm with the tyre maker’s load table.
| Tyre size | Front PSI | Rear PSI | Front bar | Rear bar | Front kPa | Rear kPa | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 245/40R18 | 36 | 36 | 2.48 | 2.48 | 248 | 248 | Wide touring 18-inch |
| 225/50R17 | 35 | 35 | 2.41 | 2.41 | 241 | 241 | Touring 17-inch |
| 195/65R15 | 34 | 34 | 2.34 | 2.34 | 234 | 234 | Very common compact |
| 205/60R16 | 34 | 34 | 2.34 | 2.34 | 234 | 234 | Taller 16-inch |

Load notes
Load moves the rear of a passenger car first. If the factory placard already has a “laden” column, use that instead of these sketches.
| Condition | Front (est.) | Rear (est.) |
|---|---|---|
| Driver only | 34 psi / 2.34 bar | 34 psi / 2.34 bar |
| Full occupancy | 35 psi / 2.41 bar | 36 psi / 2.48 bar |
| Motorway + luggage | 36 psi / 2.48 bar | 36 psi / 2.48 bar |
Land Rover notes
Land Rover 4x4s may list terrain programmes. Highway pressure is still the placard; airing down off-road is temporary.
Spare and inflator kit
A matching full-size spare on the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque usually follows the higher axle (often the rear, near 32-35 psi). A space-saver is commonly 60 psi / 4.1 bar — read that tyre’s own sidewall. An inflator kit is not a spare; check the sealant date.
A cheap gauge and a monthly habit will do more for this Range Rover Evoque than nitrogen upsells.

Questions about this Range Rover Evoque
When does TPMS warn on a Land Rover Range Rover Evoque?
Direct TPMS typically flags about 25% below placard — near 25 psi on this row. Fill to the sticker, not to the lamp.
Should I bleed pressure after a motorway run?
No. Heat raises the gauge. Set cold only. Bleeding a hot tyre leaves it low the next morning.
Front versus rear on the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque?
This row is 32-35 F / 32-35 R. Even when they match, a laden rear can justify a higher number if the sticker prints one.
Is the sidewall number correct on a Land Rover Range Rover Evoque?
No. Sidewall PSI is a maximum. The Range Rover Evoque placard is the operating target, near 32-35/32-35 psi.
How often should I check a Range Rover Evoque?
Monthly, before a long trip, and after a 10 °C weather swing. Include a full-size spare.
