I fully understand what he's getting at and I think everyone else does too.

Happy to discuss this with anyone maybe better over direct message though

LOL and you think cells were designed too? Far out man.

The ‘Land Rover Product Families’ on the pyramid above are hilarious.

So...just for a start...Discovery isn’t luxurious or capable and Defender isn’t versatile or enabling

I think the pyramid shows, but could be wrong.

Discovery:

Intelligent
Versatile
Enabling
Breadth of capability

Defender:

Functional
Durable
Practical
Off road expertise

This is the JLR public plan moving forward and focus of these vehicles.

I would say the Disco matches its brief, that is positive for the new fender.
From the mules, JLR comments, spy pics, etc haven't seen anything that would disprove the defenders brief.

What we know so far:

Fully independant long travel susp
Extensive underbody protection.
Great approach/rampover/departure angles.
Variety of engines Ingenium petrol and desiel.
Highly probable 3 front seats, based on leak and dealer comments.
Relatively durable interior based on leak.
Def Auto, maybe manual but unlikely.
SWB and LWB, and 8 or so other body's
2020 Land Rover Defender: What We Know | Land Rover Palm Beach
Rear hung spare (optional?)
MLA infrastructure (mild/Hybrid/Ev)
Most capable vehicle JLR have made yet.
18 inch wheels with possiblity of 17s
Full retro side opening rear door.
Monocoque (lighter and stronger)
Will have landrover incontrol features.
Pricing: unreleased.
