The Defender is Land Rover's icon and its widest Indian range: three body lengths (three-door 90, five-door 110, eight-seat 130) and four engines spanning ₹1.07 crore for the 2.0 petrol 110 X-Dynamic HSE to ₹2.62 crore for the 635 PS OCTA Black — the most extreme Defender ever made. In between sit the 350 PS D350 diesel, the 5.0L V8 across all three bodies, and the twin-turbo 4.4L V8 OCTA flagship. All prices are from Land Rover India's official July 2026 pan-India price list. Its only real rival in capability-plus-status terms is the Mercedes G-Class, at roughly double the entry money.

Pros & Cons
What's good
- Three body styles — 90, 110 and eight-seat 130 — under one nameplate
- Engine range runs from a 2.0 petrol to the 635 PS twin-turbo V8 OCTA
- Genuine hardcore off-roader with modern air-suspension road manners
- Pan-India pricing published by Land Rover — no city-to-city ex-showroom games
- Undercuts the Mercedes G-Class by nearly ₹2 crore at entry
Keep in mind
- The spread from ₹1.07 to ₹2.62 crore makes variant choice genuinely hard work
- No India NCAP or Euro NCAP rating published for the India-spec car
- Diesel is D350-only — there is no cheaper four-cylinder diesel entry point

Land Rover Defender — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the price of the Land Rover Defender in India?
The Defender spans ₹1.07 crore (110 X-Dynamic HSE 2.0 petrol) to ₹2.62 crore (OCTA Black) ex-showroom pan-India, across 14 variants covering the 90, 110 and 130 bodies. Figures are from Land Rover India's official July 2026 price list.
What is the Defender OCTA?
The OCTA is the most extreme Defender ever: a 4.4L twin-turbo V8 with 635 PS in the 110 body, priced at ₹2.42 crore, or ₹2.62 crore for the OCTA Black. It sits nearly ₹56 lakh above the next-highest Defender, the 130 V8.
What is the difference between Defender 90, 110 and 130?
Length and seats: the 90 is the three-door short-wheelbase (5 seats), the 110 the standard five-door, and the 130 the extended body with up to 8 seats. India gets petrol and D350 diesel in the 110 and 130, while the 90 is V8-only here.
Is the Land Rover Defender petrol or diesel?
Both: a 2.0 turbo-petrol opens the range at ₹1.07 crore, the 3.0L D350 mild-hybrid diesel makes 350 PS across 110 and 130 bodies, and 5.0L and 4.4L V8 petrols top it out. There is no Defender EV in India yet.
Which cars rival the Land Rover Defender?
The Mercedes G-Class is the only rival that matches its off-road-icon status, and it starts at ₹2.90 crore — near the Defender's ceiling. Below that, buyers cross-shop the Range Rover Sport and BMW X5, neither of which matches the Defender's off-road hardware.
