EXTERIOR FEATURES

Fitness for purpose defines the Defender's body. Short front and rear overhangs and high sills provide optimum clearances off road, whilst the flat, vertical sides maximise visibility and the ability to manoeuvre the vehicle in tight situations. A combination of high strength steel and light-weight aluminium keep weight down to maximise economy and corrosion resistance.

WHEELS

Nothing personalises a Defender as much as a set of alloy wheels. Lighter than standard steel wheels, they are also tough and highly practical.

INTERIOR COLOURS

A range of contemporary interior colours and practical fabrics is available.

INTERIOR FEATURES

Simple, sturdy and highly functional. Every dial is clearly visible, every control is easily reached. And every surface is resistant to wear and tear, as well as climate extremes. With seats easily stowable to accommodate a variety of loads, you couldn't ask for a more practical or versatile cabin.

2.2 litre 4 cylinder diesel engine

Defender’s new 2.2 litre Diesel engine produces an impressive 360Nm of torque. With 90 percent of peak power constantly on tap from as low as 2,200rpm to over 4,350rpm, it provides maximum muscle for tough working environments.

With the introduction of Land Rover’s new Diesel Particulate Filter, not only is the new Defender engine fully compliant with the latest N1 EU5 emissions legislation, it now delivers an historic new top speed of 90mph. The engine is designed to meet modern emissions legislation and features an Anti-Stall device, which intelligently adjusts the fuel required when the engine is working at low speed.

DRIVING AND TRANSMISSION

Defender's permanent 4 wheel drive with a lockable centre differential and dual range transmission system, offers almost unstoppable traction on and off road. Specially developed for heavy-duty applications, the six-speed manual transmission also provides smooth on-road performance, and economy, whilst the low first gear reduces crawl speed and makes towing effortless.

SAFETY AND SECURITY

For maximum control both on and off-road, certain models of Defender are available with 4-channel anti-lock brakes (ABS) and Electronic Traction Control (ETC). Detecting any significant difference between wheel speeds during braking or accelerating, this optional system helps maintain control by automatically reducing or applying brake force to the appropriate wheel.

INFORMATION, COMMUNICATION AND ENTERTAINMENT

Entertainment in Defender is available from either a radio or CD player with the option of high mounted tweeters for added sound quality and clarity. There’s also auxiliary audio connectivity for iPod® and MP3 (hi line audio only).
