    Those reports of the leaked photos have all been updated now to say that they do actually think the pic is showing a mini-Bronco.
    The full size version is the black outline behind the orange car in the middle picture.
    Ah, thanks for pointing that out. I was wondering how they got from the outline we've seen previously to the photos shared now of the sport, (which to me looks like a lovechild spawn from a Lada 4wd and 2000's FJ cruiser).

    Jeep Gladiator - twin cab ute due in 2020 - yet another vehicle that will take sales away from the Defender, if it ever is released...

    Live Axles, Flat glass , fold down windscreen , removable roof , probably has a water resistant hose out interior too, Everything Defender customers have been asking for but JLR wont do . And so much for not being able to keep a retro look wit new pedestrian regulations.

    Since Im never buying another ICE powered vehicle, ... Bring on the Electric Powered version.

    Wow, a fold down windscreen, and solid axles for 2020. The new defender could have been a lot more like the old! Booo land rover, boooooo.

    Fully agree, lazy and incomprehensible! I hope at least that it will be able to be accessorised with off road suitable equipment, 16 inch wheels, raised air intake etc and not glamorised out like the Discovery 5. That totally worked for JLR!
