This was posted in the Episode 3 thread, but they put a clearer look at that picture.
https://www.facebook.com/1232644253547734/...l&vh=e You can't tell much, except I can spot more than a few Defendery elements Round light. Flat wing tops Vertical bulkhead panel below the windscreen, above the bonnet where the old vent flaps were. This all matches with the styling model I saw last year, which struck me as being a bit too classic Defender-like for comfort. Some may love that, but I was hoping.for something with it own identity. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS |

In the photos the test mule is running with what looks like a single central wiper that is far too small to cover enough of the screen. So obviously not yet the finished article.
Edit: looking again, and including the extra image in the motor.es post a couple below - although there is only one wiper visible, it isn't central and is bigger than I first thought and does sweep full height of the screen. Last edited by apt100 on 8th Jun 2020 1:17pm. Edited 1 time in total |

I think there is a bit of work to do on the door fit as well

I'm at the point of needing a new commercial vehicle.
Recently I nearly ordered an Amarok, but I'm holding off for more info on this. My fingers are so firmly crossed. Can't wait for more details. 2007 90 Puma - Love it - Best car I have ever owned. 1989 Ninety 200tdi - Love it - Second best car I have ever owned. 1951 80" Series 1 - Love it - Third best car I have ever owned. |

Could be like Jeep doors and not designed to be flush fit but more of a bulkhead type arrangement. Could mean that they are also easy to take off completely  |

Mule body I reckon. The side glass is far to foward to pass today's rules.
Glad it's out and about, but I don't think it will look anything like that. Time will tell. 2007 90 Puma - Love it - Best car I have ever owned. 1989 Ninety 200tdi - Love it - Second best car I have ever owned. 1951 80" Series 1 - Love it - Third best car I have ever owned. |

What's the expected price of the Santana / sorry Grenadier
Interesting as it does 'look' more rugged, with the fronts a bit heavy looking.....  |

What's the thing hanging under the chassis under the rear door - rear prop guard?
Click image to enlarge Have to admit that I really like the look of it. The rear crossmember looks particularly functional Click image to enlarge |

Probably half way to rolling chassis rather than yet fully laid out car, but from what we can see, I like the way they have approached this. It's clear this is not some fashion statement but they are prioritising functionality, straightforward engineering, capability and modularity. Exactly the 'no nonsense' approach I [used to] like the Defender for.

It looks as though it has those God-awful Kahn wing panels fitted!
Hopefully that is just disguise under the wrap. |
