Range Rover's incoming Evoque has been teased in the most artistic of ways, with a number of wire sculptures set up across London to preview the new version of the brand's mid-size SUV.
It's been some eight years since the first Evoque - which was partly influenced by Victoria Beckham - debuted, so to mark the new model, Range Rover targeted some of London's more affluent suburbs with its 1:1 scale wire-frame displays.
Kensington and Chelsea were chosen as locations for the displays for the new car, which will be revealed in the metal on November 22.
So, what else do we know? The Evoque is expected to abandon its two-door body style this time around, instead focusing on a more conventional five-door design. And it should ride on an updated platform (the D8 architecture) that unlocks electric powertrain possibilities, though the drivetrain specifics are yet to be confirmed.
The Evoque will be unveiled in London before hitting the stand at the LA Auto Show.
Is the Evoque the most stylish SUV on the market? Tell us in the comments below.

Andrew Chesterton should probably hate cars. From his hail-damaged Camira that looked like it had spent a hard life parked at the end of Tiger Woods' personal driving range, to the Nissan Pulsar Reebok that shook like it was possessed by a particularly mean-spirited demon every time he dared push past 40km/h, his personal car history isn't exactly littered with gold.
But that seemingly endless procession of rust-savaged hate machines taught him something even more important; that cars are more than a collection of nuts, bolts and petrol. They're your ticket to freedom, a way to unlock incredible experiences, rolling invitations to incredible adventures. They have soul.
And so, somehow, the car bug still bit. And it bit hard.
When "Chesto" started his journalism career with News Ltd's Sunday and Daily Telegraph newspapers, he covered just about everything, from business to real estate, courts to crime, before settling into state political reporting at NSW Parliament House.
But the automotive world's siren song soon sounded again, and he begged anyone who would listen for the opportunity to write about cars. Eventually they listened, and his career since has seen him filing car news, reviews and features for TopGear, Wheels, Motor and, of course, CarsGuide, as well as many, many others.
More than a decade later, and the car bug is yet to relinquish its toothy grip. And if you ask Chesto, he thinks it never will.
