So far they've told us the transmission has been revised and features reduced internal friction, but I will ask for more detail.

Max towing weight (braked) kg: 1,300
Max towing weight (un-braked) kg: 350
Trailer nose weight kg: 75
Neat, those are the exact same gear ratios as the current VVT Jimnys. I wonder if it is the same R72 gearbox.
Same towing capacities too, good to know, no doubt Scottish farmers will still be chucking 2 tons on the back of them & driving to town when their Landys break.
