- VAT Qualifying - Carpathian Edition Fitted with URBAN Extras - Including 11.4" Touchscreen - Land Rover Manufacturer's Warranty until April 2025 - Carpathian Grey Satin Paint Protection Film (PPF) - UK Supplied The new Defender was arguably the most anticipated car of 2020, bringing the Defender into the modern era by applying the latest technology available from Land Rover. The upgrades are instantly apparent. From its modern edgy style to the series of onboard computers and stability systems, the new Defender is without a doubt a change for the better. Incorporating computers into everything the Defender does makes for a much more refined driver experience over the previous analogue drive. The long suspension travel provides a soft and gentle ride, absorbing any imperfection in the terrain beneath it. Although it shows good on-road compliance, it is just as impressive off-road, easily navigating through any terrain with the clever Dynamic Stability Control and all-wheel drive system. The V8 Defender tops out the range and as the name suggests features the mighty supercharged 5.0L V8 which features in many other high powered JLR products. This time the engine is producing a plentiful 525hp along with a healthy serving of 625Nm of torque. All of this results in some scarcely believable performance figures for a 2.5-ton behemoth of a car, 0 - 62mph takes just 5.2 seconds, topping out at just shy of 150mph. In order to reign all this extra grunt in Land Rover have kindly fitted the V8 with uprated suspension, beefier brakes and an all-new electronic differential and traction control program. In terms of the styling and standard features on this car Land Rover really have given this the full beans, making this the ultimate modern-day Defender.
