Exterior Features

The current Land Rover Defender keeps the boxy profile that make it easy to recognise. LED headlights with signature daytime running lights, darkened rear lights and front fog lights are fitted across much of the range.

Wheel sizes vary by trim and body style. Defender S starts with 19-inch Style 6010 alloys, while X-Dynamic SE moves to 20-inch wheels. Higher specifications add larger designs, including 22-inch alloys on selected X models, while Trophy Edition uses 20-inch Gloss Black wheels with all-terrain tyres.

X models add a black contrast bonnet and orange brake calipers, while OCTA gets extended front and rear bumpers, yellow brake calipers and a Gloss Black tailgate spoiler. Defender 130 Outbound uses 20-inch Gloss Black wheels and has its own exterior treatment.

A wide range of exterior colours, contrast roofs, wheel designs and accessories can be specified, depending on trim and body style. Optional equipment can include roof-mounted carrying systems, side-mounted gear carriers, towing equipment and protection accessories. Availability varies by current Land Rover options.
