For 2025, the legendary 2025 Land Rover Defender 110 keeps evolving, blending its tough, boxy shape with the comfort and clever gadgets today’s drivers want.
Here in Grand Rapids and across West Michigan, having a versatile vehicle is often necessary. You need something comfy for your daily drive that can also handle our unpredictable weather and different road conditions. The 2025 Defender 110 is built exactly for these situations, giving you confidence and control when conditions get tricky.

|---|---|
| The 2025 Defender 110 lets you pick an engine that matches what you want from your ride. Starting off, there’s the P300 with its 2.0L turbo four-cylinder pushing out 296 horsepower – plenty for everyday driving.
Looking for more power? Check out the P400 with its 3.0L straight-six. This engine uses a clever mild-hybrid setup that makes 395 horsepower. It catches energy when you brake, then uses it to help restart the engine smoothly at stoplights and gives you an extra kick when you hit the gas. If you’re after serious power, the V8 models deliver the goods. The P525 packs a supercharged 5.0L V8 with 518 horsepower. For those who want the absolute top dog, there’s the Defender Octa Edition One featuring its monster 626 horsepower twin-turbo V8. |
Smart All-Wheel Drive That’s Always WorkingNo matter which engine you pick, the Defender sends power to all four wheels all the time. It comes with a two-speed transfer box – think of it like having an extra set of gears. For normal driving on roads, you’ll use “high range” for better fuel economy. When things get rough, you can switch to low range. This basically multiplies the engine’s pulling power, giving you the grunt and control that sets the Defender apart from regular SUVs. |
The 2025 Defender’s Terrain Response 2 System works whether you’re driving in mud or snow. The system figures it out and tweaks the engine, gears, and traction control to match what you’re driving on.
The Configurable Terrain Response lets you fiddle with the settings through the touchscreen. You can dial in exactly what you need, putting you in control when you want it.

Hardware That Gets the Job Done |
Suspension That Changes with Your Needs |
Ready for Whatever Your Adventures Throw at It |
| Getting good grip when things get slippery is what separates the real 4x4s from pretenders. The Defender goes beyond basic AWD with the Electronic Active Differential and Active Locking Rear Differential. The Defender’s system can lock the rear wheels together before things get out of hand. This makes a huge difference when Michigan weather gets nasty. | One of the coolest features available is air suspension. When exploring tough trails, you can raise your Defender up for extra clearance — up to 11.5 inches off the ground! The system is cross-linked, so it can push wheels down into dips to keep them touching the ground.
Adaptive Dynamics checks the road hundreds of times per second and adjusts the shock absorbers on the fly. The result is a smooth ride on pavement but still tough enough for trails. |
When properly set up, the Defender can pull up to 8,201 pounds thanks to its tough D7x Platform. That’s plenty for most boats, campers, or trailers.
When you encounter water on the road during spring flooding, the Wade Sensing System uses sensors to show water depth right on your screen. The Defender can plow through water up to 35.4 inches deep with the air suspension. |
| Step inside the 2025 Defender 110 and you’ll find a perfect mix of fancy and functional. The seats come in different materials — you can get soft Windsor Leather or the super-tough Robustec fabric.
Look across the dash and you’ll spot a metal beam running across the whole width. This is part of the Defender’s skeleton, made from magnesium with a special coating. |

| The Defender 110 gives you plenty of elbow room. Both front and back seats have good headroom, even for tall folks.
Behind the back seats, you’ll find 34 cubic feet of space – enough for a big Costco run or camping gear. Fold the back seats down and you get way more room for bigger stuff. The Defender 110 even comes with a third-row option. |
||
| For 2025, the Defender 110 keeps the boxy, no-nonsense shape that made it famous, while looking totally modern. The tall, straight sides and flat roof aren’t just for looks – they give you tons of room inside and help it handle better off-road. The short backend and frontend overhangs let you climb steeper hills without scraping, while the standard LED headlights light up the road like daylight.
If you spring for the fancy Matrix LED headlights, they can shape their beams to avoid blinding other drivers. |

| You’ve got plenty of ways to make it yours. Paint colors range from clean white to stealthy black, with cool options like Pangea Green or Tasman Blue.
You can pick wheels from practical 18-inchers all the way up to massive 22-inch rims. If you like the dark look, the Black Exterior Pack swaps out shiny bits for black trim. And those optional side steps aren’t just for show – they make climbing in and out way easier. |
||
| The heart of the Defender’s tech setup is the 11.4-inch touchscreen that runs Pivi Pro. It’s got its own power supply, so it’s ready to go almost the second you hit the start button.
Hooking up your phone is a breeze with wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. The system can update itself over Wi-Fi too, keeping maps current and adding features. Optional Meridian sound systems make music sound incredible. |

| The Defender is built like a tank, starting with its super-strong aluminum body for great protection.
There’s emergency braking, blind spot warnings, and lane keep assist to help prevent common accidents. The 3D camera system gives you a bird’s-eye view for easier parking, and adaptive cruise control maintains a safe distance on the highway. |

What makes the Defender’s air suspension so special?
The air suspension makes the ride smoother and lets you raise or lower the vehicle. Lower it for easier loading or raise it up to 11.5 inches for clearing obstacles off-road. It even adjusts side-to-side to keep wheels on the ground over uneven terrain.
Can I get a Defender 110 with seven seats?
Yes! You can add an optional third row, making it a “5+2” setup. It’s best for kids or shorter trips but adds extra passenger flexibility when needed.
How does mild-hybrid technology work?
The P400 engine’s mild-hybrid system captures energy when you slow down. It uses that energy to help restart the engine smoothly at stoplights and gives a little boost when you accelerate, making it feel more responsive and saving a bit of fuel.
