Agreed, I would go so far as to say that no sidestep, electric or fixed, should be fitted to a vehicle that is likely to have the sill make contact with the ground unless they are built in as a part of a standoff bar on rock sliders.

Found the original poster of the photos, the photographer Nick, I'm guessing the embargo was lifted after the latest testing video came out. Extra info in his comments and a few extra pics.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1c060c6567.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...720e97af48.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c7d475cd6e.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1553cea8f9.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...3efc67ac54.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f7d5d2f87c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...896050a9d9.jpg
Found this whilst looking into them.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d0019cca57.jpg
German plates.
That Auto Bild image doesn’t look right to me. The rear door is way too square. There’s not enough wheel arch clearance given the position of the wheel centres. Seems likely to be an “artist impression” IMO.
Now you’ve said that if you zoom in you can see some strange artefacts along the LHS edge and top of the vehicle that probably wouldn’t be there if it was a proper pic.
I'd presume that they've photoshopped a DC100 photo.
Its actually a pretty good effort, this was thier first job from memory, DC100 photoshop
