Those venturing off road (where a locking differential might come in handy) will have the rear cargo area packed with gear, not two extra bodies!

I also question whether the 7-Seat version can have a full-size spare. https://www.landroverusa.com/build-your-own/index.html shows that it can, but my dealer service rep says there's no room for a full-size spare under the third row of seating. Please weigh in if you're a 7-Seat owner and have a full-size spare.
the spare is under the vehicle and the seating configuration has nothing to do with the spare at all... let your service guy know that he owes you lunch for teaching him about the vehicle he wants you to buy from him.
Here is my slim spare but a full size width and oversize spare could fit there and I need to eventually do this. People have fit 275/55r20

Thanks! I swapped the stock 255/55-20 Goodyear Eagles on 20" x 8.5" OEM wheels for 285/50-20 Nitto Terra Grappler G2s on 20" x 9.5" Redbourne wheels, including the spare, which fits nicely in the space you photographed.
