There have been unconfirmed reports that the new model will be priced at £25,000 (Dh120,000). If that’s true, then this will be one of the most affordable models from Land Rover. Image Credit: Dejan Hristov/behance.net

If produced, the baby off-roader will use a new platform that Land Rover calls the D10 and parent firm Tata calls the Omega-Arc, which also underpins Tata’s new Harrier SUV
