That looks like some photoshop. Just look at whatever the fuck that rear door is.

How do you you know that's what it is? Whatever it is, it would look better as a 2-door. Something looks grossly out of proportion with that rear door: an anorexic 5-year old couldn't get into the vehicle through that opening. The short overhangs look, well, short.

That's clearly a Discovery variant. Discovery 90? lol

If that's the Defender, then I hope LR's ready for the torches and pitchforks..

"The good news is, it appears Land Rover will stick to keeping the Defender a rugged, off-road SUV." - A moron

definitely not 'shopped at all.

It's a "mule". They throw any body on running gear at this stage. You can't tell what it'll look like! This is a Freelander 1 mule https://goo.gl/images/DYVwmF

But look at the RUGGED hinge on the fuel filler door is!
It MUST be a DEFENDER!!!
Because it's all hard-core extreme and shit.

That's been going around a bit...It's a design "cue"and drivetrain mule. Back in the day Ford didn't accomplish the above action very well when they were working on project petunia which was the Ford GT back in 2001. They used to drive around Detroit and Dearborn in hacked-together Mustangs with the engine, transmission and subframe the Ford GT eventually got. They weren't as "sneaky" as LR.
