Thread: The New Defender

Never seen so much negativity towards more storage space I think it could be quite handy, be a perfect recovery gear storage area

And the ladder will be very handy for accessing the roof rack.

I was interested to see the new Defender is already being advertised on car sales. Pretty amazing really, since it isn't released yet.

Carsales ad says, "AWD"!! Sigh...
Perhaps 4WD or 4x4 may have been a better description. Second thoughts, why even mention it at all. It's a Land Rover Defender.
AWD, jeezuz h, I'm thinking Subaru when I see that.

It is an SUV.

Probably the best SUV you can buy in 2020.

All Land Rovers are now SUV’s. Not work vehicles. Maybe the commercial version won’t be an SUV, we’ll see.

All Defenders are constant AWD (with centre diff and permanently locked front hubs). This is one of the features that has always made Defender superior to Land Cruiser IMO. AWD is better than 4WD as it works on bitumen. True 4WD requires difflocks and is not AWD on hard surfaces. That being said, AWD is not all wheels driving at once, but traction control solves this.

The pics say ‘not actual vehicle’ so they’re just fishing. What I find odd is that it’s a 2019 model that isn’t available until 2020.

The SE looks good, but with 18” alloys, and should have leather for that price. Just a pity I don’t have a $100k.

I can’t see the difference btw the base and S spec. I suspect the engine outputs are actually different.

Blue model spotted in the wild.
