An Overview of Land Rover Defender

Reinventing an automotive icon like the Land Rover Defender isn’t an easy mission. It involves taking special care to pay respect to the original car without upsetting existing fans by producing a parody of it. It’s something land rover thought long and hard about before reviving the defender name tag.

After all, how do you create a product that proudly follows up on a vehicle beloved by everyone from mountain rescue teams to urban hipsters?

Well, the British brand decided the right approach was to leave no room for criticism, so it made the latest Defender more practical, more refined, and more capable off-road than its legendary predecessor.

The Land Rover Defender Carpathian 110 P400 grey is a rugged SE that fuses fantastic off-road ability (especially if you add the optional locking rear differential) with decent on-road manners. If that’s the blend of abilities you’re after, it’s effectively in a class of one, but the Jeep Wrangler is even better in the rough stuff, while premium SUVs, including the Audi Q5 and Q7, are more comfortable. With its bigger boot, the Defender 110 will make the most sense for many, but the 90 is usefully more compact and better off-road.

Performance, Engine, and Transmission

The Land Rover 110 P400 SE in Carpathian Grey is a 3.0-liter six-cylinder mild-hybrid petrol with 396bhp, and it is hot hatch-bating fast – put your foot down away from the lights and you’ll hit 62mph in as little as 6.0 sec. However, it officially claimed fuel economy of around 25mpg, it won’t be cheap to run

Features and Interiors

Fans of the previous Land Rover Defender will love the latest car’s lofty driving position, which feels significantly higher than most of its rivals.
