I say build it ! this makes a nice replacement for the 2 door suv's of yore, the bronco and blazer and others that i miss alot...

... this has a wheelbase of 107 inches, six inches longer then the VW Rabbit... in total it's 3" longer then the rabbit.
I'm not sure this would be a suitable replacement for any SUV, it's clearly a niche market LandRover is contemplating entering, this vehicles designer and LandRover having already mentioned in interviews pertaining to it that it might compete with the likes of the A3, 1 series, and C30, albeit a more masculine option - but it's certainly not a large two door SUV, and wasn't intended as such if those who are behind it are to believed.

This is not a niche. With Euro-market fuel regulations set to require 60 or 70 mpg, this is the future of the SUV, at least in the EU.

... it's the size of the golf... how do you classify that as an suv? Yes, it's a boxy hatchback, but an suv? No.
