It has a 360-degree camera, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a head-up display that are totally new in a Defender. The new model gets 85 ECUs that can process 21,000 network messages which are quite enough to impress anyone. It is underpinned by the D7X platform and launched after completing 62,000 tests and 1.2 million kilometers of rigorous testing.
It is offered in two body types-3 Door and 5 doors. The 3 door is Defender 90 which is the short wheelbase version and the 5 door is Defender 110 which is the long-wheelbase version. Now Land Rover is planning to add a 130 variant something later which will be an eight-seat version.
