I agree, they all look to similar for my liking. I much prefer them to be completly different to each other.

The more I look the more I'm coming around to the shape. Actually, it's gone a little beyond that.....I'm really looking forward to getting in one.....
Well I hope so. It does look like a split line in both this photo ....

.... and faintly in this one ....

However, looking at the L405 rear end and the outline of its tailgate ....
There's a large gap at the bottom of the lower tailgate for where it rotates to horizontal:

The gap in the D5 spy pictures is not as large, especially towards each bottom corner.
This could just be the disguise wrap partially covering edges.
So there's hope yet.

See the way the RR horizontal tailgate lines are straight and the D5 has a drop to a low section under the REGO Plate and then up again? That could be cosmetic disguise or design, but it's similar in lines to the D4 with it's current non-symmetrical lower tailgate section.
Seems like an extravagant design feature .... so yes, fingers crossed.
Agreed, I did notice that .... initially thinking it's a direct reference to the D3/4 tailgate asymmetrical shape.
But it could also be just a cosmetic reference within a one-piece tailgate.
Anyway, that's probably enough on that .... :coplight: .... nerd alert according to my wife.

Looks like reversing lights inboard from the other lights on both vehicles and the 2nd picture has a quite jagged tailgate edge adjacent to the bottom of the lights - lots of temporary disguise panels.
Seriously? You guys are placing your hopes and dreams in a tailgate split?
Fanboy nerd alert indeed!
The D5 looks just like any number of utterly boring SUV lightweights from many brands, let alone every other Land Rover vehicle. Baby, mini, middie, maxi me. Clearly Land Rover designers have no imagination whatsoever. They should be ashamed of themselves.
Bland is the only word that comes to mind.
