Land Rover has just updated the Defender SUV for the 2025 model year, featuring minor styling tweaks and a couple of feature additions.
There’s no drastic change on the outside, not that it needed one. It gets a new set of alloy wheels, supposedly tweaked lights, a revised front grille, and a few new colours.
The SUV gets a bigger 13.1-inch touchscreen infotainment screen at the centre of the dashboard, along with a driver drowsiness detector, as mandated by EU legislation.
The India-spec Defender comes in a total of five engine options including a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine, 2.0-litre plug-in-hybrid setup, 3.0-litre diesel engine, 4.4-litre V8 petrol engine, and a 5.0-litre V8 petrol engine.
The exact launch timeline of the updated model is yet to be revealed, though we expect it to be here in the next few weeks.
Currently, the Defender is priced between Rs 1.05 crore and Rs 2.79 crore (ex-showroom, Delhi). The price could significantly go down due to the planned local assembly.
