Defender has introduced a significant update to its iconic SUV range with the arrival of the all-new Vertex specification. Designed to blend premium styling with legendary off-road capability, the latest addition expands the Defender lineup while introducing fresh exterior finishes, improved interior options, updated powertrains and a wider selection of accessories. The refreshed range aims to offer greater personalization for customers who want an SUV that performs equally well in the city, on highways and far beyond paved roads.

DEFENDER VERTEX BRINGS A NEW LEVEL OF TOUGH LUXURY

The biggest highlight of the update is the introduction of the Defender Vertex, a new model positioned alongside the Defender X. While retaining the unmistakable silhouette that has made Defender one of the world’s most recognizable SUVs, Vertex introduces a more refined visual identity through redesigned front and rear bumpers, an enlarged front grille, revised fog lamps and body-coloured lower cladding. Exclusive 22-inch alloy wheels, contrasting yellow brake calipers and unique exterior accents further distinguish the model from the rest of the lineup. Buyers can also select from several premium paint finishes, including Patagonia White Matte Wrap, Woolstone Green and Carpathian Grey, allowing the SUV to stand out whether parked in the city or tackling demanding terrain.

MORE PERSONALISATION FOR EVERY LIFESTYLE

Defender has expanded the number of ways owners can customise their vehicles. The newly introduced Extended Exterior Pack adds many of the Vertex styling elements to selected Defender variants, while new finishes such as Namib Orange provide additional visual appeal. Inside, customers can choose from premium Windsor Leather, Ultrafabrics or the newly introduced Forged Textile upholstery, offering a combination of luxury and durability. Defender has also introduced a six-seat configuration for the Defender 110, replacing the traditional bench seat with individual Captain Chairs in the second row. This layout improves comfort, increases access to the third row and creates a more premium travelling experience for families and long-distance adventurers alike.

ACCESSORIES BUILT FOR REAL ADVENTURES

Supporting the updated lineup is an expanded catalogue of factory-developed accessories. Buyers can now equip their Defender with a roof-mounted lighting system, a lockable tail-door gear carrier, expedition roof racks, deployable ladders and specialised adventure packs designed for overlanding, winter travel or urban driving. These additions allow owners to configure the vehicle according to their individual lifestyles while maintaining the rugged functionality that has become synonymous with the Defender name.
