Oh pleasepleasepleaseplease....

If it's just starting testing now, likely we won't see it in the US until the mid-cycle refresh. If they've been quietly testing it in other models and have already submitted certification documents, it might be as early as 2022 MY....
 
:( The first mod isn't an upgrade :(

Lift rods can have their place but I know in 99.9% of cases folks are just gonna run around topped out.

“To retain the famous Defender silhouette, accommodate a family of body styles and support the latest range of powertrains, the Land Rover brand has developed the new all-aluminum D7x platform,” Land Rover wrote. “It has the unique combination of practicality, flexibility and capability expected from a 4×4 wearing the Defender name and doesn’t share a single body-in-white panel with another Land Rover model.

Saying that lift rods fit from one car to another (which is just a plastic rod end) is a bit extreme as calling them the same... no?
