Land Rover launches the new Defender in Singapore

MANILA: After much hustle and bustle, the Land Rover Defender was, at last, uncovered by the British automaker in September 2019. Following the unveiling, the much capable 4x4 is now, slowly and steadily, making its way to different markets around the globe. And now, recent events have witnessed the all-new Land Rover Defender arriving in Singapore. Moreover, it is Wearnes Automotive Pte. Ltd., the official caretaker of Land Rover vehicles in Singapore who has introduced the new 4x4 in the country.

As it was always the case with the Land Rover Defender, the new model also carries a boxy silhouette. However, various elements like LED headlamps, large muscular bumper, flat yet sporty hood, large rims wrapped in stout tyres, Alpine light windows, vertically stacked taillamps, and a sturdy rear bumper with a skid plate provide the new 4x4 with a modern and attractive appearance. The new Defender is underpinned by a lightweight aluminium monocoque construction D7x architecture, and the suspension setup comprises of a fully independent air or a coil-sprung setup.
