Bears a resemblance to the Discovery Vision concept

We’ve known for quite a while that Land Rover is replacing the LR4 with a new Discovery SUV. Now for the first time, we’ve spotted a prototype that gives us clues as to what a final model could look like when it reaches our shores.

Motor trends caught the SUV driving down the streets of Las Vegas in plain sight recently. Despite the heavy camo, it’s clear the mule bears a resemblance to the Discovery Vision concept that debuted in 2014. Along with a subtle rear spoiler, the model features a rounded hood and boxy rear end just like the concept. However, you can tell camouflage covering the taillights and part of the roof is distorting the SUV’s shape a little in these images. It appears Land Rover has changed up the wheels as well.

Up front, the mule’s large dual intakes could signal intercoolers for turbochargers. That means the Discovery could be getting new Ingenium twin-turbo inline-six or inline-four cylinder engines.
