I saw something on Land Rover's Facebook page that linked to this YouTube video:

So Land Rover has gone from a Rover model range to a company with two makes, or has it? is Range Rover a make now, or is it still a model type? Land Rover will make three new cars each with their own model range, but seemingly there will be Range Rover with its own model range, but will it be still a Land Rover? Perhaps the ultimate reversal will occur and Land Rover may eventually make Rovers, a non sporting Jaguar but clear of high volume small cars. Then the Daimler can come back as the car for the wealthy, but not as ostentatious as a Roller and not as sporty as a Bentley. I am sure JLR could make a more attractive car than the present Roller and sell well in the larger luxury MB market. my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

I thought that Range Rovers were just up market (expensive) versions of Land Rovers and Jaguars, a bit like Audi is to VW.

Then JLR has three makes, though Audi is in the VAG group it is not a VW. I suppose it depends whether the LR badge disappears from the RR models. my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

I don't think there is a lot more they can say. We will see 3-4 models under the Discovery name. Freelander replacement in both 5 and 7 seat versions, Discovery 4 replacement, a new model that falls under the Freelander.

These photos are the clearest I have seen of one of those test mules. I am not too sure what model this is really meant to be, but I hope it isn't the FL replacement. I want a flat top roof, not a cheese wedge!

The guy at the dealer said they're making something in between the Evoque and a Range Rover Sport. Any ideas what this might be? 11 SD4 HSE Stornoway Grey / Black Windsor Leather |

I believe the shots of the mule with the big grill have been confirmed as the Jaguar SUV with Evoque body panels.

That prototype is actually the New Jag cross over under an Evoque stretched body as mentioned above. As said countless times before, ignore these test mules. They mean absolutely nothing. I have now seen the new Freelander replacements body shell and it doesn't look like an Evoque. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come......... |
