Yes it's an obvious area for more stuff, that having been said we haven't heard or seen anything on that front yet so there is literally no info to go by.
There's EGX convention coming up in a few weeks where Frontier have a presence, we may hear something there or it may be the same that we saw at Gamescon (see Frontiers youtube site vids).
For me a bigger and or different styles of SRV makes sense around 2.3 update which i'm totally guessing will be somewhere around December. Having more cmdrs on one ship allows for much more fun with people taking srv's fighters and all that jazz out to co-ordinate in one big strike against surface bases etc. I'd hope it comes then

I want something with legs, like an AT-ST, or like the walker mechs in Battlefront 2142.
Seems highly impractical and inefficient from an engineering standpoint. I would like a tracked SRV and one capable of flight on low G planets.
It feels like there needs to be almost as much diversity in surface vehicles as there are for ships. Would imagine that, when more planetary environments become available, we'll either be able to submerge into large bodies of water in the ships or alternate a surface vehicle with a water-going and/or amphibious configuration, too.
Perhaps even vehicles which are capable of burrowing and tunneling beneath soil.
In any case, it would be nice to have a more combat-focused, armoured vehicle: Less cargo space, better survivability.

There will be ship skins for SRV in 2.2
The Elite Graphic book showed some conceptual art for SRV's, as well as some mahoosive SRV articulated creations.
I would hope that 2.3 will have alot more ground based items including SRV variants.
Maybe even SRV loadouts like ship loadouts!
Lets get 2.2 out the way and then badger the jivens out of FDev fior some ground based travel love!

I was actually surprised you couldn't switch up their loads!
I would LOVE a beefier version of the SRV with choices for heavy armor, missiles, etc. It would definitely make planet-side military missions, especially the ++ missions, that much easier and more fun. The standard SRV we have now is just too weak for the more difficult missions. Plus it would look pretty badass to ride around in a little tank of sorts. I would probably call it something like the TIV(tactical Infiltration vehicle) or whatever. Oh well, a guy can dream right? lol.
