The Land Rover Defender OCTA Edition One isn’t just the most powerful Defender ever built, it’s the one that completely changes the tone of the car. With a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 producing 626bhp and 0–62mph in just 4.0 seconds, it delivers serious pace, but it’s the engineering underneath that makes it special. The new 6D Dynamics suspension, wider stance and 33-inch all-terrain tyres give it a planted, controlled feel on-road while retaining genuine, go-anywhere capability.

Edition One cars add the details that matter. Exclusive paint, exposed carbon fibre accents and the new Ultrafabrics interior with Body and Soul performance seats make it feel modern, technical and rare. It looks tougher, sits prouder and feels far more focused than any Defender before it.

This is the Defender for someone who wants something different to the obvious choices. Faster than expected, more capable than it needs to be, and limited to the first year of production, the OCTA Edition One is the most extreme and most desirable evolution of the Defender to date.
