New defender pics with winch and sliders
Oh baby, she’s going to have teeth! Check out the pics of the new defender on OVALNEWS.com (really wonderful website for LR news). Brush bar, warn winch, and what appears to be factory sliders. They must really be putting it through it’s paces, there is some damaged trim behind right front wheel.

yes yes and yes! So much better if you can get a vehicle that's ready to rock from the outset!
Fingers crossed that this thing is going to what we all hope for..

The D5 was showed with a winch in several launch shots but there is no option for it, Defender may be the same

This should be interesting - lots of other "action" shots in Moab, and they're apparently running the 90 and 110 versions at Overland Expo West this week.
Hey DD, any news or videos from this yet ?

I've seen a few Instagram posts but no videos. My guess is LR is keeping a pretty tight lid on the media.
Quick Google of "2020 Land Rover Defender Moab Video" gets things like this:
I didn't listen to the commentary but noted the 110 model had "hybrid electric vehicle" stickers on it...so maybe the same!e inline 6+hybrid setup as the new RRS HST?

Hi, I saw Fjester’s vids a while ago. Shame nothing snuck out at Overland Expo. Must have been plenty of non media people there to take pics and video ?

Yeah I went back and looked at the Instagram feeds - Land Rover had a test drive experience threre and I thought I saw several pics of Defenders in camo tagged #overlandexpowest2019 but they're gone now. There's one tagged #overlandexpowest but it was a repost from some pics someone took in April on Poison Spider - a D90 and D110 in camo plus the D90 mule in the shorty RRS body. He also got some underbody shots confirming fully independent suspension and what look like the same airbags as the D5.
I wonder if they're just going up to people and politely asking them to not post video, because I can't believe that in a place like Moab there won't *always* be someone around with a cell phone or even just a GoPro taking video...even at dawn on a Monday morning....
There is this one, and it's OK. Traction control...yawn.

Thanks DD, I guess we have to wait to see what LR release in a few months when they spin the hype machine up.
