Land Rover has unveiled the Defender OCTA, the most powerful and capable Defender ever to roll off the production line.
The OCTA is a beast. Under the hood lies a heart of pure muscle: a 4.4-liter twin-turbo mild hybrid drivetrain churning out a staggering 626 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. That translates to a mind-blowing 0-60 mph time of 3.8 seconds – astonishing for a vehicle of this size.
To tame that straight-line performance, Land Rover also equipped the vehicle with their advanced 6D Dynamics active suspension system and a suite of new drive modes. This means the Defender OCTA can conquer any terrain you throw at it, from crawling over rocky trails to powering through sand dunes. Improved approach and departure angles and the ability to ford through up to three feet of water solidify its off-road dominance.
Visually, the OCTA exudes power and presence. The ride height has been raised, the track is wider, and aggressive fender flares frame the massive 22-inch wheels. But the upgrades extend beyond aesthetics. Step inside and you’ll find a luxurious cabin featuring premium Ultrafabric upholstery. And for those who truly appreciate a unique driving experience, the Defender OCTA boasts Land Rover’s innovative Body and Soul Seat audio technology. This system transforms your seat into a subwoofer, immersing you in your music as you conquer challenging terrain.
The Land Rover Defender OCTA ($152,000) isn’t just a car; it’s a statement. And order are open now.
