It's a midsize (for North America) concept, so not much bigger than an Amarok and a fair bit smaller than an F-150. No production plans; it's more about recapturing the attention of buyers in USA.

Size wise the F-150 must have been part of the target brief to the design team. The overall length and wheelbase place it between the SWB and LWB F-150s. Width wise they're the same, with a load bed matching the super-crew version.

To me it looks like an Americanised version of the Amarok. As for likelihood of production, all I can say is they went ahead with the Atlas.
