About the Land Rover Defender OCTA L663

The Defender Octa represents the high-performance pinnacle of the L663 generation, trading the old supercharged V8 for a BMW-sourced 4.4-litre twin-turbo unit. It introduces the 6D Dynamics suspension system to the Defender line, using hydraulically interlinked dampers to eliminate traditional anti-roll bars for superior articulation off-road and composure on-road. Distinguished by its 68mm wider track, 28mm increased ride height, and bespoke 33-inch Goodyear tyres, it is designed for high-speed desert running as much as luxury cruising. The interior features 'Body and Soul' seats with tactile transducers, marking it as a true flagship for the brand's new 'Defender' sub-brand.
