The long wheelbase variant of Land River Defender the 130 has been launched | HighRPM

 We all are pretty much well aware of the Land Rover Defender, the vehicle which mixes luxury and off-roading so well that it became people's fav in no time. It is a rugged and robust workhorse that can handle just about any terrain or weather condition that you throw at it. This vehicle is perfect for anyone who needs a tough and dependable vehicle that can handle heavy-duty tasks and wanna enjoy luxurious & peaceful drive.

Its massive size and attractive design is making this vehicle an absolute head-turner. The aura of this car is something that fills the driver with confidence. Meanwhile, to enhance that massiveness the brand has launched the longer wheelbase version of Defender, the Land Rover Defender 130.

What is the price of a Land Rover Defender?

The pricing takes off at 80.72 lakh and lands over 1.41 crore. Whereas the new variant or the longer wheelbase version price starts at 1.30 crore and goes up to 1.41 crore. 
The new variant 130 is available in two sub-variants, the Defender 130 HSE and the Defender 130 X. 
These are the ex-showroom price of the Land Rover Defender.

The Land Rover Defender 130 is powered by....

The 130 is not powered by any different engine the same 2996cc petrol and 2997cc diesel engine with the same torque converter transmission. 
  • Petrol- 2996cc 4 inline cylinder DOHC turbocharged I6 MHEV petrol engine which gives you 394bhp of power at 5500rpm and torque of 550Nm at just 2000rpm. AWD drivetrain is there coupled with 8 speed torque converter transmission. Due to this amazing power and torque figure, it touches 100km/h from 0 in just 7.6 seconds.
  • Diesel- 2997cc 4 inline cylinder DOHC turbocharged I6 MHEV diesel engine and this engine serve you 296bhp of power at 4000rpm and torque of 650Nm at 1500rpm, diesel is spitting torque man. Get the same 8 speed TC transmission and take 7.5 sec to touch 100km/h from 0. 

Dimensions and weight of the new Land Rover Defender 130.....

The dimensions are crazy of this Land Rover Defender 130. 
The length of the car is 5,099mm,
the width is 2,008mm,
the wheelbase is 3,022mm, 
the height is 1,970mm and
the ground clearance of 218mm standard which can be raised up to 290mm, thanks to the air suspensions. 
It has 900mm of maximum water wading capacity as well. 
On top of that, the weight of the car is 3.38 tons which is jaw-dropping and it can tow 3 tons as well. 

The size of the car is humongous and with air suspension and great water-wading capacity, you take this Land Rover anywhere without any concern.

These figures show that this car is made for some serious off-roading activities and in terms of luxury and amenities the name of the brand tells you a lot about the same.

Mileage of the Land Rover Defender 130. 

Although these cars are not meant for mileage discussion but that is still important. The mileage you get from the petrol 2996cc is 8.78kmpl which is ridiculous, but the car's size and weight are in the picture. 
On the other hand, diesel is pretty relaxing because it gives you 11.42kmpl which is not that great but better than petrol. 

The fuel tank size is also huge, it drinks around 90 liters of fuel. 

Design of Land Rover Defender 130.

It has a boxy and utilitarian appearance that is instantly recognizable. It is stylish and also gives that gangster look, especially in black colour. It looks very purposeful with a phenomenal road presence.

Exterior

In terms of design, there is no difference between this 130 variant and other variants except for the length of the car. The front profile same, having a giant grille with beautiful headlamps bumper is ready for off-road, and small fog lamps are there as well.

Coming to the side the length is seriosuly jaw-dropping with side steps and big 255/60 R20 alloy wheels. The boxy look of the vehicle is clearly visible from the side with bold & straight shoulder lines. Snorkel placement is given by the brand and for symmetry, they have given it on both sides of the car however one side placement is fake. 

The rear is very interesting like the front and the side of the car. The spare wheel is attached to the boot gate of the car and the best part is that there is no cost-cutting in the spare wheel it gets the full-size spare wheel. The shark fin antenna is on the roof with a camera that is connected to the digital RVM. 

Interior 

The best thing about this long wheelbase version is space it's 8 seater car with proper space for 3rd row as well as all the basic amenities like charging ports, cup holders, seat belts, adjustable headrests, and a private moonroof. But unfortunately, Land Rover has removed the safari glasses from this version but they have given a proper moonroof.

The interior is designed for maximum durability and functionality. The seats are made from tough materials that can withstand dirt, mud, and water, and the dashboard is designed to be easy to read and operate.

The dashboard is looking super-premium and full of soft-touch high-quality material with plenty of space as well. The Defender 130 won't come with that 10-inch infotainment system, it comes with a bigger 11.4-inch system which is full of features. With exposed screws, the design lang of the interior gets more flow and levels up the overall atmosphere of the cabin.

This Defender 130 is the perfect car for joint families and for adventure lovers, the car is highly practical and spacious as well, and even the last row of this car is having a good amount of space and an airy feel as well.

If you are alone or with your lover or friend going camping and then fold the 2nd & 3rd row you will end up with a proper bedroom where you can carry an Evoque, jokes apart but after folding down the last 2 rows you will get 2300 liters of space. 

The 130 is full of features which necessary for comfy journeys and for off-roading as well. This car is a power package you name it this car will throw that in front of you......

This is the new Land Rover Defender 130.....
