Once they get the faux slab sided covers, camo and padding off of it....wow. I think LR will have knocked it out of the park. I think it’s going to be far more modern-retro than they are letting on. With the wheelbase on that model it’s going to be a highly nimble off roader. Personally, I love the wheel/tire combo as well.

Given that it says fuel type not available, it's probably zero because it can't be established.

I'm guessing there are dispensations for manufacturers to skip some of these details for what are obviously development vehicles. Darren

I can see that being pretty good. I hope the camo is hiding the barrelled sides.

I love the fact that there is hopefully going to be a modern short wheelbase option and also hope there is a basic utility version.

If you look closely at these pics of this and the long wheelbase, you can see that it does have a distinct side accents....it looks to also have the bulging hood that opens like the old Defender. I’m also pretty dang sure the big box taped to the roof is hiding a tapered roof and alpine windows. Like I said, I believe it’ll be very throwback.

Agree with that! Actually beginning to think its going to be better than i expected. Shame it's reportedly going to cost £40k+...

I can’t belive JLR will take so long and then release something that’s not fitting of the Defender badge....i’m Just thinking price wise it’s going to take deep wallets for granted. No matter what, they are never going to price any version of it with less than 15% markup over a Jeep.
