Top Gear Russia has an article that shows camoflauge over the fog lights on the front bumper, so presumably they will be revised as well.

Good to know. I'm guessing they will change from being round to rectangular like all of the Range Rover variations.

This would be the link: http://www.topgearrussia.ru/news/car-news/183310/63d73838.html

What I find curious is that the truck in the photos shows a two-tone rear bumper. I am wondering if they will add the silver lower trim strip on the LR4 like they have on the new Range Rover.

This is going to be very interesting!

I am just happy they are not changing it too much, though that article (once translated) does mention the V6. Maybe they shaved weight off?

Either way, I am glad I got the 2013 before they do more bling.

This is the quick BING translation, take it for what its worth.

Network published photos of upcoming SUV from the British manufacturer. The shots (from our American colleagues on motorauthority.com), it can be said that the Discovery will be 2015, new headlights and mirrors, as well as a redesigned bumper.

The new engine lineup is expected to be a 3.0-liter V6, borrowed a Range Rover and Range Rover Sport, where he develops 340 HP and 450 nm of torque. In addition, Discovery will be equipped with 8-speed automatic, that will contribute to lower fuel consumption.

An SUV should be on the market next year-looking forward to new details, meanwhile, are examining spy photos in the gallery below.

I think the 2 tone rear bumper is just primer on top - doesn't look like its been painted.

All those articles are talking about an early 2015 model year test mule (allegedly), I think MY2014 changes - if any - will be far less dramatic. I just don't believe Land Rover is going to pop a new engine, transmission and other goodies over an aging and heavy platform that's due for retirement in just over a year. Perhaps some cosmetic changes to the front end will come in the Fall - given how popular their "Black Design Package" seems to be - but I wouldn't expect much more for MY14. My 2 cents.

This is what I've been saying all along.
