This is the long-wheelbase model, as evident by the large rear doors.
Although the Land Rover Range Rover did not create the luxury SUV market, it helped to popularize these high-end haulers in Europe. After the 2012 debut of the current version, a new generation is now on the horizon. These spy shots give a great view of the next-gen model and also show it next to the latest Defender.
Although Land Rover’s camouflage hides details of the design, it is clear that the new Range Rover has a similar aesthetic to the existing one. The vehicle’s muscular body is still characterized by a few curves around the edges.
A large rectangular grille is located in front. Smaller rectangular headlights attach at its upper corners. The hood is mostly flat and has a clamshell design which wraps around the fenders.
The new Range Rover’s silhouette is very similar to the one that it shares on the sides. This is the long-wheelbase version. The largest rear doors indicate this. The rear window is covered by a large roof spoiler.
Land Rover’s Modular Longitudinal architecture will be used to transport the new Range Rover and Range Rover Sport. The aluminum-intensive platform will allow the models to lose weight while remaining nearly the same size. It can support a variety of powerplants, including fully-electric versions. As a replacement for the 4.4-liter V8 diesel, a mild hybrid six cylinder diesel will be added to the range.
According to reports, the new Range Rover Sport and Range Rover Sport will debut in 2021. They will likely be available for sales in the United States in the 2022 model year. The unveiling is still a few months away, so expect engineers to remove camouflage from the body over the next few months.
