Correct.

Remember this was first displayed in 2000, a few years before the BA and with the Territory still 4 years away.

Yet it previewed;
  • Strong hints of the BA Falcon frontal treatment.
  • Territory interior colour palate of black/orange/grey/eucalyptus.
  • Theatre seating (higher in the rear) later seen in the Territory.
  • BA door trim & dash with a few variations - round vents (SZ Territory).
  • Falcon based soft-roader, moderate ride height RWD/AWD.
  • Raised ride height ute - RTV
