Looks cool.
Low range switch looks easy to use and the locker switch pack is minimally changed from a visual standpoint

Obviously the IFS is a big change, but hey....
I mean it still comes with a front locker.

Ergonomically it looks better and the redesign allows the display and other functions to actually look like they were planned vs looking like an add-on/after thought.
IFS is crap off-road IMO (yes the Pinz is IFS and it sucks) but will be better on-road where we all know most of these will spend their lives.

Those digital gauges are probably cheaper to make than the electro/mechanical ones and so much more customisable.
Its funny how they still simulate the old round style.
American cars in particular of the 50's and 60's tried to get away from the round style and had some amazing designs, pure mechanical.

That analog clock seems pretty stupid. Who could ever read it in that position?

Just another car I’ll never buy.

This makes me appreciate the 460,461,463 so much more.

It looks a little squished, at least from the rear photo....or maybe fatter
