Enhanced passenger comfort is central to the latest upgrades, including introducing a new Signature Interior Pack and adding Captain’s Chairs Pack for Defender 130 models. This new seating configuration for the second row introduces two separate luxury seats with dual armrests and plush winged headrests and an aisle for easy access to the third row.
Mark Cameron, Managing Director at Land Rover Defender, says: "Our vision for Defender is to continuously refine an already exceptional vehicle that seamlessly adapts to any environment. The launch of the new Sedona Edition, sophisticated interior enhancements, and our most potent diesel engine to date expand our clients' choices significantly. With the Captain Chairs in the Defender 130, up to seven passengers can experience unmatched comfort during both grand and local adventures."
