New D130

Is it the same wheelbase as the 110?

Yup.

Same rear doors and all. Gotta save money for more profit.

yes

I wonder what the square footage of the entire cargo deck is (with all rear seats folded) for the D130 vs. the LR3/LR4? This is more important to me than the overall cubic footage. As in, how much room is there to spread out back there?

I think it's going to be hauling kids and boats. I would really like to see it as a pickup truck with an 8 ft bed. I don't think that will ever come to the states but maybe in other markets. I think people will be trading out of Suburbans for this.

Based on above...the 90 looks comical, the 110 looks good, and the 130 looks actually usable for a family.

I think only the 90 makes any sense as far as looks go. Just my taste. The damn thing is about as big as my D2 though which makes no sense.

LOL

Gerry loves things that flare out at the bottom.

Sure he does. Just look at his shoes.
I wonder how he can possibly walk downstairs without tripping the heel on the edges.

Here is the comparison we needView attachment 62805

I've never really noticed it until now but the rear end.... It looks like during the design process they couldn't agree on a concept for the rear of the vehicle so they just said "aw fuck it" and chopped it. Especially the two door. It looks like someone took a sawzall to it.

Boy that motherfucker screams offroad doesn't he. Who better could a company pick who's motto is "best 4x4 by far" than that guy right there. Who dresses him, his 13 yr old daughter?

Exactly what I thought. I kind of liked the D90 until I saw that comparison. Looks like trucks I drew in grade school.

I’ll bet that 130 will be a nice family hauler and camper. Discostew is right - they will sell the shit out of these. But I shudder at the thought of all the “overlanding” bullshit that will accompany this thing when it hits the streets. Pun intended.

Actually, it would not be a bad idea at all.

I'll never be in a position to afford one of these anyway but the D130 sure is a special kind of ugly. It reminds me of the first time I saw a Ford Taurus. Still haven't fully recovered.

The 90 looks like a collaboration with Mini to make an off-roader. Some hints of '80s & '90's Japanese stuff too...might have a nice Samurai type vibe topless.

Agree the 110 is by far the most aesthetically pleasing.

Utility-wise yes on the 130, but it's so long it fucks up the feng shui . I thought the D5 had a big ass...this is a straight-up badonkadonk.

Now in my mind it just went from being an "SUV" (in the looses sense of the term) to a van. That's something mom takes the kids to soccer practice in.

Anything can identify as a Defender these days.

Funny you say that. So any kid can draw six lines in the sand kinda thing?

So a Gladiator 'competitor?'
