Thats the first time I've ever heard anybody say a Ssangyong looks better than anything!

Haha yep...I retract that last comment.

At about 1/4 of the price

This is the official Ineos video - it explains in better detail what's what:

Introducing the Interior

I quite like some of their ideas... (Pre-wired spare switches)

Oh and in the video "if you want one, you can reserve one starting in October"... Not exactly a delivery date, but it must be getting closer one would think.

Cheers,
GG.

Very nice interior and love the pre wired switches, incl a 500A one 😳.

If you actually look at the functions they have in the main switch console you can see that the ‘gloves on’ big buttons have come at cost - ie lots of area taken up for limited functions. Probably not a bad thing with the good usability and overhead switches for expansion.

Two things I would definitely miss if I changed from my D2:

1. Dual climate control for driver and passenger - my wife and I set temps about 5c difference.
2. SLS. Will be interesting to see how their variable rate rear springs turn out, esp with the quoted 1 T payload !

It looks like the big screen will have Android and Apple play. Would assume you wouldn’t be able to load your own apps into the big screen system itself - eg run Ozi Explorer natively in it, without having to tether up an Android device.

That one is for the coffee maker,actually,it would probably power two.

Those roof mounted switches are a dumb idea, who wants to be fiddling around trying to finger the roof trying to find a difflock button. Otherwise i dont mind it, manual hi/lon lever and a real handbrake.
Pity it will be priced out the market for most of us, no way its going to be a budget vehicle.
