This is the second official image of the upcoming Land Rover Coupe-Crossover due to make an appearance in concept form at next month’s Detroit Auto Show. Land Rover surprised many when it presented the first official teaser during a presentation back at September’s Frankfurt Motor Show.

This latest image is actually the concept version, which was leaked prematurely onto several major forums. The image confirms the vehicle will have just two doors and also reveals a panoramic sunroof and lush interior.

The new model will be positioned below the current Freelander/LR2 as a direct competitor to other premium compact SUVs such as Audi’s upcoming Q3 and BMW X1. New features that will appear on the final production car will be an engine stop-start system, lightweight aluminum suspension and a possible mild-hybrid set-up.
