Sources suggest Tata-owned Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) is planning a small, rugged SUV to sit below the upcoming Defender replacement. The planned latest addition to the Land Rover SUV range will be aimed squarely at younger buyers and 'millennials'. The currently unnamed model is thought to be called L860 internally, and could be a development of the aborted L851 project - a similar entry-level Land Rover project. No official details have been released but mid-2021 has been hinted as a possible start of production date.
