To be fair to the OP there is an article in the June issue of LRM which quotes John Edwards, Land Rover's brand boss as saying all-new defender is due in 2015.
The article goes on to say that in a separate article in Autocar that Land Rover is "considering" using the DC100 looks for a road going entry vehicle, based on the Evoque platform. But it also suggests a separate, tougher, utility vehicle built on a ladder frame chassis.
The author of the article in LRM is our own, newish member Dave Phillips. Perhaps he can share more- clear up any confusion.

Some great replies there, I don't like it myself. Il stick to my 89 90 with the 200 disco engine and Richards galv chassis.

Last thing I read on this was they are releasing the DC100 in 2016 as a new 'softroader' along with a new Defender model which will have a different name likely based off the Evoque/Disco Sport chassis sporting a similar set up to baby Cherokee Jeeps. Along with 7 other various models aswell.
Going to be an interesting couple years for LR to say the least!
I do think it looks awesome and will be cool however its not somthing I believe anyone should even try and compare to a Defender.
