New Baby Disco (prev Freelander)

[VladTepes]

QWell the gossip is that a new vehicle will find its way into the LR Range. It will be marketed as an entry-level ( "baby" ) Discovery with the Freelander name likely to disappear.

Anyone seen anything officially on this esp pics?

I found this on the intranet on a Russian website but its probably just a photoshop thingy in the abscence of anything actually known....

Certainly its full of Freelander design cues....

Hmm see also New Land Rover Freelander 2015 pictures and details | Auto Express (http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/land-rover/freelander-2/64465/new-freelander) for FL3 prospects...

nah...that's the replacement for the defender

The Evoque seems to have overshadowed the Freelander, so I suppose its logical to introduce something smaller, but more capable than the Evoque and Freelander below the Discovery.

Interesting link.

Also interesting how UK prices, and comparative prices even, bear no relationship to Austraia !


Here's an interesting question....

We have seen Porsche, Audi, BMW (all traditional sports car and sedan manufacturers) enter the SUV market. They will soon be joined by Jaguar, Aston Martin and Bentley.

So..... which will be the first "proper 4wd" company to introduce a sedan......


My money is on Jeep (if they don't go broke first).
