Land Rover Defender Octa Launched in India at ₹2.59 Crore – Full Details
The all-new Land Rover Defender Octa has finally landed in India, setting the benchmark for power, luxury, and off-road capabilities in any SUV. Starting from ₹2.59 crore, this high-performance SUV is nothing short of the ultimate evolution of the legendary model Defender.
The Defender is infused with high performance engineering but still carries the rugged DNA of Defenders. The Defender Octa premier in India comes at a starting price of ₹2.59 crore (ex-showroom) and for those who desire something more unique, there's even the short-run Edition One at ₹2.79 crore. This one is manufactured only for the first year of production and features unique design touches. It was conceived as being the most extreme Defender ever created.
A complete redesign of a chassis was made followed by the performance suspension tuning that had all the state of the art tech under it to boost on-road and off-road capability.
The Defender Octa has at its very core, 4.4-litre twin turbocharged mild hybrid V8 engine that produces ferocious 626 bhp as well as 800 Nm of torque. Mated to an 8-speed automatic gearbox, this SUV can accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in just 4 seconds, which makes it one of the fastest Defenders in history.
Land Rover has outfitted the Octa with 6D Dynamic suspension to accommodate all this strength under control of body roll in all directions making it more stable. Compared with Defender standard, the Octa is wider and taller with increased ground clearance and the best capable defender.
