same thing with mine...seems like a loose heat shield on exhaust...I have yet to investigate this further...let me know what your dealer finds.

***UPDATE***
I stopped by the dealer this morning and had one of the techs hear it again. He knew right away what it was as he said all the PTI Evoques he's driven has the same vibration/humming noise coming from the transmission tunnel. He said it's most likely when the torque converter locks up is when the noise is occuring. He says there is nothing wrong with it although it's only the Evoque's he tested has this noise. He also mention maybe call or email Land Rover and let them know so hopefully there will be a fix. Again.....there is nothing wrong but it's still not right to have this vibration for a $50k-$60k+ vehicle. I'll probably call Land Rover and let them know. Possibly those who have this vibration/humming noise do the same so they will do something about it.
I have had a rather severe, very annoying, hum and vibration between 37 and 43 mph for quite a while - since a couple thousand miles. I now have about 18,000 on my Evoque. It seems to be louder than I remember it being earlier in the life of my car, but that may just be my increased annoyance. The noise/vibration is not consistent - it will show up about 40% of the time, and usually persists on my journey once it starts. I took a drive from San Diego to Borrego Springs where much of the speed was in the vibration range and it showed up every time. I have had the car at the dealer on three separate occasions and, unfortunately, the dealer has been unable to replicate the symptoms. The last time I picked the car up from the dealer (at closing time) it exhibited the symptoms less than 10 miles down the road, and did so very day for about 5 days (again, this was over a holiday so the dealer was closed). Yet the vibration has not happened in the last two days. The vibration and noise is loud and obvious. I have been on the phone with friends that have heard it over the phone. I have to turn the radio up to hear clearly over the noise - thank goodness for the wattage.I've notice that my Evoque when cruising between 35mph-40mph with the foot off the pedal, than press the gas very slightly there is this humming noise coming from the rear of the car (very noticeable). You can also feel a slight vibration in the cabin when it does that (through the pedal and steering wheel also). Doesn't do it all the time though. My car is at the dealer since Friday for that and other things but just checking to see if anyone has had something similar.
TIA!
I know it's been a few years since this post, but I'm having this exact problem with my 2016 Evoque. Dealer can verify problem, but can't figure out what it is. Did you ever get this figured out with LR?I have had a rather severe, very annoying, hum and vibration between 37 and 43 mph for quite a while - since a couple thousand miles.

I have tried to troubleshoot a bit and have noticed the following symptoms. The noise/vibration happens, and is the same frequency, regardless of gear (I have manually shifted gears to see if the frequency changes or does not show up - the result is no frequency change and it shows up in any gear at the same speed), The frequency is too high for an out of balance/out of round tire - it's more like a bad drive shaft - a loud, low frequency, hum/vibration (enough to rattle parts of the car); it persists regardless of load (both downhill and uphill), reaches a peak volume/amplitude at about 40mph, goes away beyond the 37-43 speed range. Some days it will not show up: the last two days have been vibration free while the previous 5 the vibration occurred every time. It occurs on the highway, uphill, downhill, smooth roads, bumpy roads, pretty much everywhere I am driving within the speed window - when it occurs. I have tried many different sources for gas - with no change; and it occurs 1/4 tank, mid tank; full tank of gas. The pleasure of the Evoque experience pretty much overrides all it's other shortcomings except for this. I don't think I can keep the car with this annoyance. The dealer says they cannot fix if it does not occur while they have the car - they drove it about 30 miles without occurrence. I've asked the dealer to have a mechanic take the car home and drive it until it occurs and it is fixed - I want it fixed that bad!! No dice. The dealer contacted Land Rover North America technicians and they say they never heard of this problem. I find it hard to believe I am alone with this issue.
Evoque 4 Door, "Prestque" 2.0L gas engine, Black Chrome Jaguar Kasuga wheels (Sweet!), roof rack with cross bars (I drive a motorcycle as well, I am not convinced wind pressure at 40MPH on a roof rack would cause the car to vibrate this severely).
