The original Land Rover Defender’s<\/a> stint on the American market started during the 1993 model year. The company is commemorating this anniversary by releasing a limited-edition version of the current model called the Land Rover Defender 30th Anniversary Edition that features a throwback design.<\/p>\n

Based on the Defender’s four-door 110 P300 S trim<\/a>, the 30th Anniversary Edition is exclusively offered in Fuji White with 18-inch steel wheels painted white. The first Defender<\/a> 110s sold here were white with white wheels as well. Land Rover<\/a> added wheel arch flares, mud flaps, side steps, a deployable ladder on the driver’s side and a roof rack, while a classic-style emblem on the rear door adds a finishing touch to the look.<\/p>\n

While the first-generation Defender was as tough as it was rudimentary, the 30th Anniversary Edition offers a long list of features including LED headlights, a sliding panoramic roof and a three-zone climate control system. It also comes standard with the Cold Climate, Tow, Black Exterior, and Off-Road packs, which bundle equipment such as an electronic active differential, a trailer hitch and a heated steering wheel.<\/p>\n

Power comes from a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine rated at 296 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. It spins the four wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission. By comparison, the 1993 Defender sold here was powered by a 3.9-liter V8 shared with the Range Rover<\/a> among many other British cars (trace its roots for long enough and you’ll end up at the Buick<\/a> headquarters in 1960). It was tuned to deliver 180 horsepower and 227 pound-feet of torque, and powered the four wheels via a five-speed manual transmission.<\/p>\n

Land Rover will build 500 units of the Defender 30th Anniversary Edition for the American market, a number chosen because only 500 units of the 1993 Defender 110 were modified to meet regulations and sent to the United States. Pricing starts at $75,000, meaning it’s cheaper than its predecessor. In 1993, Land Rover charged $39,900 for the Defender 110, a figure which represents about $81,000 in 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
