Fusilier verse Defender Sport

[David B]

Great News that the fusilier is back on the table, love the look of it. I think it’s going to be a hard sell against the defender sport if they don’t get it right. I’m hearing it won’t be solid front axle, which is a shame. They really need to offer something largely different and better to compete with the mini defender.

For the target market (or what I guess it will be), a solid front end would kill it dead in the sales race.
Much like it probably kills a huge level of Grenadier purchasers.

You could be right, the jimny seems to be a huge hit with its solid front axle. To be in the race I believe it needs to have better payload, off road, towing and price.
