Its owner looks a bit adventurous, tackling icy roads and a frozen lake course with giant spotlights on the roof to cope with the early sunset in Scandinavia in late January. But get up close and the real story is clear. This is an early prototype of the next all-new Range Rover, caught during testing by the Carparazzi crew on winter white work.
The new Land Rover flagship is not scheduled for a presentation in late 2013, but the pictures give some early hints. Judging from the wider, but not longer, front guards the car is going to get a slightly wider track but retains today's wheelbase.
The mule-style front design of the prototype leads us to believe new engines are underway. However, the modifications might as well be a hint to a radically different front-end layout that could be necessary to satisfy stricter pedestrian safety regulations.
Like today's model, the new Range Rover will be available with a variety of V8 petrol and diesel engines, but to reduce the company's fleet consumption much further than smaller models alone could do, Land Rover might have a hybrid version on the cards as well.
