X1. ACE is not designed and probably unlikely to replace serious wheel articulation in any form. It is merely an ARB but with electronically controlled hydraulic systems for improved pavement handling at speed. Many later LR's have air suspension with SLS for minor surface irregularities but nothing as extreme as that vid which of course has huge hydraulically controlled leading and trailing link suspension but that is specifically designed and manufactured for the purpose which is the only viable way to achieve such enormous articulation. Mind you, I reckon it's a real pig to drive above 30mph on the highway.
