Overview

The 2026 Land Rover Defender 130 is a three-row diesel SUV built for families and adventure seekers who need genuine off-road capability paired with practical seven-seat comfort. Its standout strength is the potent 3.0-litre diesel engine delivering 257kW and 700Nm of torque through an eight-speed automatic, enabling a respectable 3000kg towing capacity while achieving 8.1L/100km fuel consumption. Keep in mind that you'll want to factor in the ongoing servicing expenses of a complex diesel engine, though the five-year warranty provides solid peace of mind.
