Defender Gets a Bold Upgrade: A New Era of Distinctive Adventure-Ready 4x4s
The iconic Land Rover Defender has received a comprehensive update that enhances its design, technology, and off-road performance across all three body styles — the 90, 110, and 130. These changes make the already formidable Defender even more distinctive and user-friendly, further cementing its place in the hearts of adventure seekers and off-road enthusiasts.
A Modern Makeover with Timeless Toughness
The updated Defender range introduces a refreshed exterior that reflects both its rugged capability and refined British heritage. A newly designed headlight signature, smoked flush-fit tail lamps, and a sleek gloss black grille-bar set the tone for a more assertive front-end look. For those who demand individuality, new exterior color options such as Woolstone Green and Borasco Grey add depth to the Defender’s palette.
Exclusive to the high-performance Defender OCTA variant is the stunning Sargasso Blue paint and Textured Graphite accents that amplify the model’s muscular aesthetics. A Patagonia White Matte Wrap is also coming soon to Defender OCTA and V8 models for those who prefer a more sophisticated, matte-finished look.
Inside: Where Practicality Meets Innovation
Stepping inside, the cabin has been refined with a larger 13.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system, which enhances visibility and control for front-seat occupants. With improved dash ergonomics and a reimagined center console, daily use becomes seamless. There’s also an upgraded stowage system that includes sliding compartments and removable side pockets for added flexibility.
The Defender continues to be a champion off-road with the addition of Adaptive Off-Road Cruise Control — a first for the model. This intuitive system allows drivers to maintain comfort levels over rugged terrain while focusing on steering. A new Driver Attention Monitor adds another layer of safety, alerting drivers when their focus drifts.
Defender OCTA: A New Benchmark in High-Performance Off-Roading
At the top of the range sits the Defender OCTA, boasting a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 engine that delivers an impressive 635PS. With 6D Dynamics suspension and a dedicated OCTA driving mode, it stands as the most capable Defender ever. Customization options like Chopped Carbon Fibre accents and 20-inch forged alloy wheels make it an ultimate expression of power and luxury combined.
Adventure Enhancements and Functional Accessories
Land Rover has also expanded its range of Defender accessories. From Explorer, Adventure, and Urban Packs to deployable side-steps, matte black bonnet decals, and integrated air compressors on the Defender 130, the options are virtually endless. A 4,500kg-rated winch is also available for the OCTA, further proving that no terrain is too tough for this unstoppable 4x4.
