The much anticipated Land Rover Defender 2023 model is set to be released across the world. Land Rover Defender, for years, has been the primary leading jeep for adventurers. With the new Defender, the company has taken the comfort to another level which aptly complements the jeeps off-road capability.

The new Defender would offer more capable off-road ability than the other Land Rovers. Both two and four-door body styles would be available, and the base model – 296 hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, would set the pocket back a measly $53,500.

The turbocharged four-cylinder is standard, and V-8 variants would also be available. All the Defenders come in four-wheel drive. However, the Defender would offer a plethora of advanced options, such as height adjustment with the air suspension and differential locking to enhance the off-road ability.
