A limited-edition Land Rover Defender has been launched to mark 75 years of the iconic British brand. Land Rover Defender has been established with unique paint and is priced at £85,995.

A cosmetic reworking of the current Defender, the Defender 75th Limited Edition will be launched three-quarters of a century after the legendary Land Rover Series I was introduced in 1948, then just the name of the SUV launched by the now-defunct Rover.

It would be available in 90 or 110 body styles (the larger eight-seat 130 has been omitted). You will get a Grasmere Green paint job (not seen before on a Defender. synonymous with early Land Rover models) with 20-inch alloy wheels colored to match the bodywork.

These touches help lift the limited edition to a starting price of £85,995 (£89,995 in 110 forms). It has a hefty increase of £24,055 from the HSE-finished Defender (£61,940) on which it is based.

Under the hood, the two powertrain options are the 296 bhp D300 diesel (models 90 and 110) and the 398 bhp P400e plug-in hybrid (only 110).

The technology includes a 3D surround camera and configurable terrain response. A car has a Meridian sound system and an 11.4-inch Pivi Pro infotainment system. All vehicles also have several options as standard, including the towing package. Buyers will be able to replace the standard folding fabric roof with a sliding panoramic option.
