Got someplace to go? A 2025 Land Rover Defender can get you there, no matter where “there” is.

The 2025 Defender lineup includes the 90, 110, and 130. The 90 is the short and stubby two-door, the 110 is the standard four-door, and the 130 is the extended four-door. They’re available with turbocharged four-cylinder and six-cylinder engines, as well as a turbocharged or supercharged V8. They’re all equipped for off-roading right out of the box, but you can add more tech for more challenging situations. The big news for this model year is the high-performance 2025 Land Rover Defender OCTA.

Verdict: There is a Land Rover Defender for almost anyone, and any of them can take you farther into the wilderness than you expect. They’re rugged but refined, comfortable yet capable, and plenty of fun to drive. But the Defender comes at a cost, both on the window sticker and at the pump.

I really liked the capability of this vehicle. It has the power, 4x4 capability, and towing capacity that we needed. Styling is very nice too. Better capabilities and MUCH better reliability and durability than Toyota, Jeep, and other 4WD vehicles. Good value for your money.

I love how smooth this vehicle is on the road, its hard to believe that it is a more than capable off road vehicle when it rides this smoothly. Probably one of the most comfortable cars I have driven, more comfortable than the G-Wagon even. Very Happy with it so far! I love the refridgerated center console for keeping drinks cold but do wish there were an additional enclosed small storage for junk, charger cords, gum, etc.
