At the 2019 Frankfurt Motor Show Land Rover revealed the current generation Defender, the first all-new update since the early 1980s. Now, the arrival of the new generation is announced, which will hit the market in a few months.

The new generation Defender will bring a refreshing exterior with new headlights, fog lights and integrated taillights, bumpers, engine hood, side vents, and a front grille in gloss black. Customers will be able to choose from several new body colors such as Borasco Gray inspired by Californian mines, Woolstone dark green with warm details reminiscent of the British landscape, and Sargasso Blue and Patagonia White matte foil for the top-of-the-range Defender OCTA version.

The Defender‘s interior has also been refreshed with a new 13.2-inch central touchscreen, the gear lever is now slightly closer to the dashboard, a redesigned center console. A center front seat is available as an option, for a configuration with three rows of seats.

Speaking of technology, the future Defender will be equipped with Adaptive Off-Road Cruise Control, which allows the driver to maintain a preset level of comfort while driving on rough terrain, automatically adjusting speed even off-road. There is also a Driver Attention Monitor, a camera facing the driver that monitors attention while driving and sends visual and audible warnings in case of distraction.

When it comes to the powertrain, the top of the range will be the Defender OCTA powered by a 635 hp 4.4-L twin-turbo V8 engine. It is equipped with 6D Dynamics suspension, Body and Soul seats and OCTA off-road performance mode.

Land Rover will also offer several equipment packages (Explorer, Adventure and Urban) that include new black roof racks, dark underbody protection and fixed or retractable side steps.
