A few observations that come to me:
1) A spiritual successor needs to embody the "heart and soul" of a vehicle. I'm not sure I believe the Pro is such for the 4R. IMO, if any 5G is, it's the Trail/OR.
2) It would be weird for the 5G to be a successor to another model that is younger than its predecessors.
3) Surely, if the 5G is the successor the Disco, then it's a failure, since the Land Cruiser is the spiritual elder to all "overland" vehicles, not some mid-90s Land Rover build.
