Agreed with a lot of other comments that the front end is.... abysmal.... The only thing, and I repeat the ONLY thing that tickles my interest is the v6 twin turbo, but I am not paying 60-70k+ for a Ranger Raptor. At that point, I could get a E85 tune, fox 2.5 coilover/suspension kit, 33in tires and be relatively close to what they made for 6-7k on a 2019-2022 model. And I would look damn stylish too, not looking like a rectangle box.

at least they located the fuel tank door far enough away from the flare so when the raptor style flares become available there shouldnt be one with a notch cut out of it.

Where's the rear step, beside the bumper?

A few things I noticed besides the lack of a steel bumper... the wheel arches are body coloured as opposed to the usual black; this trim appears to be fitted with the matrix LED headlights which are an option on the Wildtrack/Raptor; it's missing the rear bed step like we get here, as well as the obligatory side steps and mudflaps; and if you zoom up the side on photo it looks like they have carried over the parabolic leaf spring setup as opposed to the multileafs.
Overall it does look pretty plain to me, hopefully it's just an unfinished prototype.
If it's any consolation, there are options for aftermarket bumpers that replace the entire front clip, I think they look nice...

This picture here makes it look like a totally different truck. I love this one!

First obvious difference, third brake light location. Global has the third brake light in the tailgate. Box also looks different as well, wouldn't be surprised if there is next to nil panel swapping compatability. Probably have to go the whole nine to put a Wildtrak front end on. Interior is the big question for me.

If it is a solid piece it's really going to mess things up for those who want to add a aftermarket bumper and a winch. The B&P should be coming out if Job 1 is really going to start on May 1st.
ARB Australia, already has it covered.

Now it all makes sense. Lift tires and front bumper transform this thing.

The red one looks good, too.

Looking at the ROW 6G, the Raptor, maybe others, willl have at least a steel bash plate, maybe the whole bumper is steel; unclear.

Compare this to the "Lariat" prototype which is a one piece facia:
