Design Change for Range Rovers????

Could this be a new design for quick and easy oil changes from Castrol on Range Rovers?

It appears that Aston-Martin have adopted it, so there is every possibility.

Any opinions??

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Very simple idea BUT I can see at least two problems with it...................... Land Rover charges extortionate prices already for a little bottle of oil with an LR logo on it, imagine how they could control the market for their cars by us only being able to buy such an item from a dealership and specially engineered so it will only fit into a Land Rover receiver. I'm sure this is the clever bit, bit I don't see how the dirty oils is completely drained from the sump with the "bucket" at the top of the engine or could it be that there is still an old fashioned drain plug on the bottom of the sump? 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Perhaps replacement is the wrong word, and it will "just drink" the contents, so no draining required.... Rolling with laughter
