The Land Rover Defender is a four-wheel-drive off-road luxury SUV model produced and sold by the Land Rover brand of the British company Jaguar Land Rover Automotive PLC.
The Land Rover Defender succeeded the Land Rover Series I, II, and III, which were off-road vehicles modeled after a British version of the Willys Jeep model used during World War II. This led the Defender, like Jeep and the Jeep Wrangler, to become known for its rugged build, off-road capabilities, and versatility.
First released in 1987, the Land Rover Defender nameplate has been primarily offered as the Defender 90 and 110 models (and briefly as the Defender 127 and 130 extra-long and heavy-duty wheelbase versions). An all-new version of the Defender (L663) officially debuted in 2019 and replaced the original Defender (L316), although the initial build is still sold worldwide in many developing countries. The competitors of the old and new Defender include the Ford Bronco, the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Wrangler, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, and the Toyota 4Runner.

- Cons: The fuel economy ratings of the Defender are poor, its best features are locked-off on high-priced trim levels, and its V6 engine option is surprisingly slow (for a V6).
