Chronology
Predecessor	Land Rover Defender (L316)

The Land Rover Defender is a four-wheel-drive off-road luxury 4x4 from British automotive company Jaguar Land Rover. The vehicle was launched on 10 September 2019 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. It is significant for being the first all-new version of the Defender, breaking the engineering lineage with its predecessor, a descendant of the original Series Land Rovers of 1948. The unibody-based Defender is aimed at a more upmarket segment than its predecessor.^[1]^[2]

The L663 Defender is available in three body length options, marketed as the Defender 90 (3-door), Defender 110 (5-door) and Defender 130 (5-door with extended rear overhang for three-row seating).
