Re: france future H4
I think it's pretty cool, but kinda A-team looking. Something they would of built to bust through a "out on the docks' warehouse and get in a gun fight, truck.

In the H4 section, below, we've talked about the H4 as it's going to compete with the Wrangler.

Re: france future H4
Not a bad hill at the end tho ... muddy, steep, tall shelf and sharp turn. There was some front wheel spin, but then it locked up, so it must have a traction control system or you can lock the front on the fly.
They didn't give many specs during the spot, but they did say it's an inline 6 that originally got 224 HP, but was modified to make 300-320 HP and 46 kg-m of torque (about 330 ft-lbs). Sounded like they said diesel, but hard to tell with all that terminator music.
And they said learning french would be a waste of time

Re: france future H4
Is that the definition of bling?
Anyone notice it Interco Thornbirds for tires? You'd think they would want a tire that actually got traction off road.
I must say I loved the Indiana Jones theme at the end

I thought a Gazelle was a small/quick/nimble deer? I bet that video spot was a joke, probably a modified H2 under all that crap. btw - I actually expected those two dudes to kiss at the end of that show to top it all off....

Re: france future H4
Here's a short article on the Gazelle.
www.routiers.com/sejtbases/routiers/825/825p012-014.pdf
Doesn't say much except that it's a 2.5 ton 4x4 based loosely on the Sherpa 2. Also, a 6x6 and armored versions are planned and the Belgian and French armies are very interested (big surprise there). Industry analysts were surprised to see this prototype developed by Renault Trucks, which is part of the AB Volvo group, instead of the Renault Automobile-Nissan group.
Funny thing ... they say it looks too much the Hummer and will have to be redesigned more like the Sherpa 2 already in production.

Re: france future H4
ok that's weird. I just tested the link and it gives you a 404 error, but you still can right-click and "save as" to download the pdf
Here's a screenshot for Ernie Italy if he's curious.

Being French, they probably did, but off camera.
