I see some G wagon and Defender in that thing
This actually made me laugh out loud. I am betting we'll get a "spy shot/reveal" of the new Defender in the ICON book coming out in July. Just a guess.

This seems familiar though.
And although I can imagine that I would like this vehicle, I still wonder -- where is the Defender replacement? Truck bed option? Open rear space for modification and overlanding equipment? Proper roof rack options? Will the front and rear bumpers be removable without taking half of the existing body lines apart? Will there be an option for 16 inch wheels?

If we're going to have a fun thread, have to give these guys credit for shopping the DC100 into multple variations

There's nothing "fun" about configuring the DC100. That's like cancer cell mitosis

Those police and military renditions are hilarious.
"The new model will feature a contemporary take on the old model’s shape but enough familiarity to pull in traditional buyer." GOOD LUCK WITH THAT !

That shape is from a display that was behind McGovern when he was prattling on about arranging flowers or some such. Which is to say it's more official than any other jerk-off illustration on the interwebs.

Totally agree, if it's on an official display or publication it should be considered the real deal. Anything else is just a guess. Hints have been spread around for months from LR publications to new vehicle announcements.

The Velar came out pretty close to the teaser shape. If the Defender replacement is close to the teaser, then we may be ok. Or we can keep guessing and bitching like a bunch of old women when the bingo caller is changed.

Based on the last pictures it's on the right where it says Defender.
I agree the outline matches pretty close to the Velar as it was released so I'm optimistic. A lot more square and upright than the other current models.

Can somebody post the link for this thumbnail pic? It's Bigfoot blurry no matter how I try to view it. TIA

Very much so. Thank you.
A little bummed as it kind of looks like the profile of the LR4 carrying a rear tyre.

I think most people would be more than happy if it followed the LR4 lines.

I'd be great with that. But that DC100 thing haunts me....
