I wonder what sort of sideways angle it will be able to handle? If it comes out with airbags and some sort of terrain control to evenly distribute the weight, would it be able to match or out class its descendents?

JLR are on record saying it will be the most capable defender yet, so i would say yes.I wonder what sort of sideways angle it will be able to handle?

From memory most of the D3 onwards are 43 or 45 degrees max sideslope
I'm guessing same for RR

SubscriberMost capable is a term that is as slippery as an anchovy milkshake. It's like mist in the wind. It means....whatever LR says it means.
Most capable of being sold to the most people...yes.
Cheers
Ps. A 130 has 150kg roof load...bet the new one has nowhere near that. Won't stop LR saying new one is the most capable because they will say it's the most capable averaging a whole range of factors. That is just one example but there are many more.
Edit 90/110/130 150kg

Actually have to disagree, they are very specific in their claim:
“most off-road capable Land Rover vehicle ever”
That's not open to interpretation.
Im not sure ive ever heard anyone discuss roof load limits when comparing off-road capability, would strike the Jeep wrangler off pretty quick.
A roof is not somewhere I would be putting 150kgs, infact I wouldn't go much over 50kgs if at all possible.
