About the Land Rover Defender

The reborn go-anywhere luxury icon — available in three body styles with serious off-road ability and a premium cabin.

The Land Rover Defender is the modern reinterpretation of the brand's legendary off-roader, sold in India in 90 (three-door), 110 (five-door) and long-wheelbase 130 (eight-seat) body styles. Entry versions use a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder with 296 bhp, while the range extends to more powerful six- and eight-cylinder engines, all paired with automatic gearboxes and permanent four-wheel drive.

The Defender is a purposeful, muscular machine that delivers genuine capability with 626 bhp and commanding 750 Nm torque. Its 8-seat layout and ventilated seating add practicality, though premium positioning and modest tech features mean you're paying for heritage and engineering over gadgetry.

Stands out

  • Potent 626 bhp petrol engine with 750 Nm torque for genuine performance
  • Spacious 8-seat configuration with ventilated seating for family comfort
  • Robust safety with 6 airbags across the range
  • Proven off-road pedigree and legendary build quality
  • Adequate 397-liter boot despite seating capacity

!Gives us pause

  • Premium ₹106.99 lakh price demands significant commitment
  • Limited driver assistance features despite modern segment expectations
  • No sunroof or panoramic glass options
  • Tech suite feels minimal relative to segment rivals at this price point
  • Fuel efficiency not specified, likely demanding for daily commutes
