Kind of looks like one of those bricks we have on the wall

I guess they reflexively plaster that swirly camo on any concept venturing in to the wild...but is it really necessary in this case? It's not like this one could be mistaken for anything else, and it's already be shown without the camo. And I don't see a subtle crease tweak here or there really effecting the grand scheme of things. And no other manufacturer is going to steal their design language and rush a 200k hybrid out ahead of them.

So maybe it's all a reverse psychology ploy to drum up some buzz. If we put the swirly camo on it, the spy photogs will eat it up! :)
