As for the highlights, the car has an eye-catching design and a spacious tech-loaded cabin. It runs on a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 engine linked to an 8-speed automatic gearbox. Here's our roundup.

The car is available with several design packs

The 2022 Defender V8 has an aggressive look, featuring a muscular bonnet, a minimalist grille, rectangular-shaped headlights, 22-inch wheels, and quad exhaust tips. It comes in Yulong White, Carpathian Grey, and Santorini Black colors. New design packs are also available. The Bright Pack adds a chromed finish to the grille, badges, and skid plates while the Extended Black Pack introduces gloss black trim.
