I think it unlikely that they will bring the Full dynamic kit (of which the above is a part) across to new defender, as it is a key model differentiator, however if they did I would be looking to sell my RRS.

That’s good info, thanks Gregz. So could be nothing more than a marketing words change?

”Electronic Active Differential” is what I was Googling and it came up with the tech that the Evoque has, along with a bunch of other BMW and Honda etc. If the RRS just has the same old locking diff then marketing dept needs reigning in.

I agree,red one is like a shrunken tamed down version.

You realize we were talkin bout the Bolly right? Its functional but for me far too square/ugly.

Not an official pic, just a rendering.
We won’t be seeing 35”s under one of these.

First it was the photo of the leak out of the rear. That restored confidence the new Defender was a Land Rover. Now video evidence that it is on a breakdown service slide tray - yep confirmed this is a Land Rover. Where do I sign up!

Riji its been posted above, theres a black pic aswell

Whys that?

37s fit on a RRS

32s on moab trucks, looks like plenty of room for 34s, with a 1inch small air susp lift rod lift, 35s no problem.

Being a modern truck, my guess is people will stick to 75mm total lift. So im guessing 1inch air susp tweak (if needed) and 34s.

J. Austin Fab has already confirmed he will be doing his subframe a lift for it which is currently a 6 inch kit available for the Range Rover Sport Range Rover vogue and Discovery 5. He said he will be doing a smaller kit for the Defender.

Looks like crap, no matter how you see it.
