Here's a short article on the Gazelle.

Doesn't say much except that it's a 2.5 ton 4x4 based loosely on the Sherpa 2. Also, a 6x6 and armored versions are planned and the Belgian and French armies are very interested (big surprise there). Industry analysts were surprised to see this prototype developed by Renault Trucks, which is part of the AB Volvo group, instead of the Renault Automobile-Nissan group.

Funny thing ... they say it looks too much the Hummer and will have to be redesigned more like the Sherpa 2 already in production.
