🏮 Land Rover Defender 110 Hybrid Review

When Land Rover launched the new Defender, the obvious expectation was that an electric version would be introduced as the world transitions to some form of electric propulsion. The company does have a brilliant new plug-in hybrid electric version for some markets, but there’s also this, a stonking great supercharged V8. After less than a year on the market, the Defender's 2.0-liter turbodiesel I-4 powertrain—available in both 197-hp and 237-hp tune—has been replaced by Jaguar Land Rover's new 3.0-liter twin The Car Expert’s unique Expert Rating system. It’s not just Darren who loves the new Defender. Based on 19 reviews we’ve aggregated so far – all of which are this 110 long-wheelbase model, and mostly with the same D240 dieel engine – the Defender currently holds an Expert Rating of 92% as of August 2020. Unlike the 110 range that features the plug-in hybrid P400e, the Defender 90 line-up is populated with diesels and petrols, although the punchiest P400 version of the latter, plus the six-cylinder diesels do at least have mild-hybrid technology for fuel saving and lower emissions than would otherwise be achieved. .
