Won’t be retro...

This is a colab between GB's awesome Photoshop and my (attempt) to edit it [emoji51].
Not sure how realistic it is but gives us an idea of some muddies at least [emoji1417]

The Bosch car in the Instagram info is a bit strange. The window sill has like a platform taped to it (??), and it also has a bonnet clamp as well as what I'm guessing is three "logo's" on the front. One of those at least looks to be just stuck on, so to speak.

I assume the ladder is accessed by the top of the wheel being the first step up. I agree it will look very much like the graphic rendering on the dash. Look pretty good. Kitted up it should look impressive and utilitarian. Cheers

If this continues (And it probably will for quite a while) it might cause LR and/or local dealers to sharpen their pencils for the new model...

I suppose the holes on the ends at the front could be cameras for the driverless version.

I can’t believe how much LR is putting “aftermarket” stuff into the core design for this vehicle.

Dual rear plus centre front recovery points
Winch
RAI
Roof platform
Ladder
Rock sliders
Bash plates

Now that’s got me wondering if they might even do a dual battery rig and an on-board air compressor for tyre inflation. Perhaps an obvious spot for 2-way radio mounting. Big questions still around bull bar and long range fuel options.

There is a bar in a few pics.

As for the standard fuel tank,they have listened to the complaints about their other vehicles,and looked at the opposition's fuel tank sizes,so it will be huge[thumbsupbig]

Thats why the spare is on the back,leaves more room underneath.

Hope so! How good would say 110 litres (or more...wishful thinking) be with a small diesel. Cheers

I hope there is a 'Lightweight' version without any of that added on consumer crap. FFS Im surprised they haven't bolted a set of maatrax to it . Well, the rock sliders will be useful but I wont need any other that other rubbish .

Instead of 'bash plates' I'd prefer a flat plastic cover under the entire car to clean up the airflow .

I don't think anything but recovery points and underbody protection and perhaps sliders will be standard. They will make a bucket load out of optional side ladders, bar work, winches etc. For those that use that stuff of course it isn't crap. For those that don't it is useless, heavy expensive crap [emoji1787][emoji16].
