2020 Land Rover Defender 110 P300 Price, Reviews,Specs,Gallery In Malaysia review

Posted : 2 years, 11 months ago on 10 June 2021 07:14

There is no diesel-powered Defender in the U.S. lineup, so the Land Rover Defender 110 D240 is forbidden fruit for Americans. It's also a rare beast: You can't order one anymore, even in its home market.

After less than a year on the market, the Defender's 2.0-liter turbodiesel I-4 powertrain—available in both 197-hp and 237-hp tune—has been replaced by Jaguar Land Rover's new 3.0-liter twin-turbodiesel mild-hybrid inline-six oil-burner, tuned to deliver 197 hp, 247 hp, or 296 hp, depending on how much you want to spend. But as the mild-hybrid six-cylinder diesel has yet to officially hit the road in the Defender (the new engine has just made its debut in the flagship Land Rover Range Rover), the Defender 110 D240 is all we have to answer the question: Does a diesel engine make the new Defender even more desirable?

Torque and fuel efficiency are a diesel engine's strong points, and both are desirable characteristics in an off-road-capable SUV weighing more than 5,100 pounds. But as we found while testing the 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon EcoDiesel, there are some downsides, too.
