Land Rover Defender
The Land Rover Defender is a premium SUV or crossover nameplate from Land Rover, designed for everyday driving, utility and off-road travel. Some versions emphasize four-wheel-drive capability and trail use. Across its model years, powertrain, drivetrain, seating layout, cargo capacity, towing capability and equipment can vary substantially. Shoppers should compare the exact year and trim because specifications, features, recalls, known problems and ownership costs can change over time.
