The 2024 Land Rover Defender range has just gotten even more impressive with the introduction of the new Defender 130 Outbound variant, as well as the availability of the Defender 130 with a glorious 5,0-litre supercharged V8 engine.
This new addition to the Defender family is the epitome of luxury and all-terrain capability, making it the perfect choice for those with active and adventurous lifestyles.
This new Defender boasts a luxurious interior space that seamlessly combines with unparalleled off-road capabilities. With its five seats and ample cargo space, this model enables its passengers to bring everything they need to explore the great outdoors. The nearly flat load space at the rear provides a claimed 2 516 litres of space, making it ideal for hauling heavy objects with ease. The cabin is equipped with durable rubber floor mats that can be folded out over the rear bumper, providing extra protection and stability when loading and unloading cargo.
Land Rover has gone the extra mile to ensure that the Defender 130 Outbound is ready for any adventure with various latching points throughout the rear and a new cargo net to secure various items. The cabin can be trimmed in either full Windsor leather or durable Resist fabric, which adds to the luxurious feel of this vehicle. The Ebony finish with an Ebony Morzine headliner, Robustec veneer, and a cross-car beam finished in a Satin Black Powder Coat Brushed finish all come together to create an interior that is both sleek and stylish.
The exterior of the Defender is just as impressive as the interior. With unique design enhancements, this vehicle is sure to turn heads wherever it goes. The Shadow Atlas Matt finish on the bumpers and grille insert gives the Defender 130 Outbound a subtle and purposeful look, while the side vents finished in Anthracite add a touch of sophistication.
The Gloss Black 20-inch wheels and Shadow Atlas Matt 22-inch wheels are both available to complement the Outbound design. The colour palette is equally impressive, with Fuji White, Santorini Black, Carpathian Grey, and Eiger Grey all making up the options. The body-coloured rear signature panels and D-pillar finishers complete the exterior enhancements, ensuring that this vehicle is a true standout.
But what makes the Defender 130 Outbound truly remarkable is its unstoppable 4×4 capability. The proven Intelligent All-Wheel Drive System and Terrain Response ensure that this vehicle can handle any terrain with ease. The Electronic Air Suspension and Adaptive Dynamics fitted as standard provides advanced off-road driving technologies, making it possible to navigate even the toughest terrain effortlessly. With the Electronic Air Suspension allowing up to 430 mm of articulation and up to 900 mm of wading, this vehicle is the perfect choice for those who love to explore off the beaten path. The Defender 130 Outbound is capable of towing up to 3 000 kg’s, making it the ideal choice for those who need to bring along additional equipment.
Finally, the introduction of the 5,0-litre supercharged V8 engine adds to the already impressive lineup of engines available for the Defender 130. With 368 kW of power and 610 N.m of torque, this engine is a perfect combination of performance, cruising refinement, and capability giving it the power to go from 0-100 km/h in as little as 5,7 seconds.
