Land Rover has introduced a series of revisions for its popular Defender range.

The off-roader now has a sharper exterior design with new front and rear lights, and the rear ones have a smoky design. There’s a new textured pattern for the bonnet inserts and side vents, and gloss black Defender-branded hubcaps.

New exterior colours have been added to the Defender’s range, including Borasco Grey.

The interior has been upgraded, too. A new 13.1-inch infotainment screen is slightly larger than the previous one and sits above the dash-mounted gear stick.

A redesigned centre console has a sliding section to keep valuables out of sight, while a Signature Suite pack can be added to include removable side pockets.
