if this is the new xB and it looks like it they listened to all the complaints about the current xB.

1: the hood is way longer. that translates to a bigger motor

2: the rear cargo area is deeper for more cargo with the seats up.also, i wouldn't be surprised if you couldn't recline the rear seats.

it looks like a mechanical test mule cause the body stamping still looks like the current xB from the headlights to the rear. the actual design is probably not out on the road yet.

I don't like it. It looks too much like an xJ(eep).

Although avus posted it on the 13th, Darren posted it on valentine's day, and stickied it for about the rest of the week.
