Will the next-gen armor be like pic related, unmanned turrets with huge guns and advanced APS, or something like uparmored CV90 with 57mm autocannon and infrantry carrying capacity?

those already exist and they are called IFVs

The US is building OMFV for its next IFV, which is an IFV with 2 crew, APS, and a 50mm cannon in a remote turret. The M1 tank will get yet another upgrade, and then probably be replaced with a robot.

My theory is that the line between SPGs and tanks begins to blur, resulting in relatively heavily armoured vehicles that are capable of armour-penetrating direct fire when necessary but spend the majority of their time flinging ordnance from over the horizon to avoid drones and infantry antitank.

Meanwhile IFVs universally get equipped with airburst 30 or 35mm rounds and systems to effectively use them in an c-uav role.

this wheel arrangement but have steering wheels have in-wheel E-motors. Middle wheels would chain drive and be able to take optional treads.

But make it like an S-Tank, but with a 155mm.

Give it a 'doser blade in front like S-Tank, and use the blade to jack up the front for hi-angle long shots.

put one or two digger arms on the back, which in conjunction with front blade would provide extreme obstetrical conquering, as well as help dig in, and load ammo, and serve as Optics, and light weapon mounts.

nobody has ever purchased the upgunned CV90 prototypes, and they dont have troop bay

Brazil is looking at the CV90MKIV as it's new IFV and wants a light tank derivative so serve alongside it but they don't think they need something like the 120mm armed version. The proposals that have gained traction are variants with an Italian large caliber autocannon in the 60mm-76mm range since they wouldn't be directly engaging tanks, but rather just support infantry and would sometimes need to engage other medium armor. They'd also mount ATGMs for the rare MBT encounter. This variant could also still carry 5 dismounts. IIRC, the Otomatic with APFSDS can engage the only real MBT threats Brazil would encounter anyway, that being Venezuelan AMX30 and low spec T72s.
