The Disco Sport probably qualifies as a 'soft roader', seeing as it doesn't have even a centre diff lock (AFAIK) nor low range.
The Trailhawk, OTOH, has both of these, plus a rear diff lock (which a stock Wrangler doesn't have). It also has almost as much clearance as a stock Wrangler, almost the same approach angle, and actually a better departure angle. Calling the Trailhawk a 'soft roader' really doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
The only possible reason you could have for calling the Trailhawk a 'soft roader' is the live axle vs independent suspension argument. But, gee, it's not like the Trailhawk is particularly lacking in wheel articulation.
