Hello! Ciro here. This has to have been one of the toughest assignments in modern motoring: design and build a car to replace one of the most iconic cars ever made. The car which pretty much invented the idea of the SUV. The choice of hardcore adventurists the world over...the Land Rover Defender.
That is a weighty nameplate to carry. But the world has certainly changed a lot since 1948, when the Defender was first launched. So, how would Land Rover of today marry the best of times gone by, with the requirements of modern motorists?
This was also an incredibly tough assignment as a journalist, saying anything about the old Defender is fraught with danger, it's like reviewing a sacred cow. But we set out to provide the point of view of myself, someone who is happy to admit that 4x4ing is not one of my finest skills.
I hope you enjoy the video. Let me know what you think about the new Defender in the comments below.

Honestly speaking I love the new Defender, I think my dad has had 6 in the last 35 years, including one with the crank in front, the only reason why he switched to land cruiser was because of load capacity but in terms of off road capability the defender outshines the more reliable cruiser, now all old defender owners will tell you the reason why their elbows were always out was because only really small people could fit in the defender, it also got really hot inside so my dad rubberised them to help with the heat, the seats were horrible but with the right suspension setup(Old Man Emu) my dad would throw the V8 into a hole throw it into first jump out and we would watch it crawl out on it's own(we thought it was magic) but it was great engine compression and a truly legendary vehicle doing what it knows best to bring smiles to our faces, that being said the last one he bought a few years ago he literally gave away because he couldn't sort out the fuelling system and the lucky bugger who bought it sorted it out immediately and 10 years later he still has it.

Look, I'm not a Landy fan but this new Defender is on a next level. In my opinion it's like you get supercars and hypercars this is like a hyper 4x4. I suppose the true test of this vehicle will come down to reliability, that will be the catelyst. Legendary or just another leaking, depreciating 4x4. 🤞

Aaron Adkins, there are more. JLR has a history of avoiding responsibility for reliability. In Australia JLR has lost court cases to consumers with unresolved car problems. If the new Defender sniffs of unreliability they won’t move enough units in the current global economy. Happy for you to give me a new Defender to test drive on Frazer Is Queensland Australia for a couple of weeks and see how we go?

Yes, it looks and does what its built for, very well. But is it for real an overlanding vehicle? No. Too many electronics and ecu's. Too vulnerable to take from Cape Town to Cairo on the worst tracks imaginable. Anyway, it is geared to an urban audience looking for a status symbol. As a 4x4 enthusiast who has travelled a lot in Africa, I would not go near this vehicle. Perhaps an Ineos Grenadier, but for me, let's just say... Toyota. 'Nuff said.

Africa was tamed by Land Cruiser, contrary to the claims by Land Rover that is was them. And as a consequence, should one's vehicle be in need of repair, Toyota parts are available everywhere. Having said that, in 8 years of travelling around Africa, including the roughest roads imaginable,my Land Cruiser did not once give me any issue whatsoever. This new Defender will not be able to do the same and when it is in need of repair, where will you find assistance "out there"?

I also feel like Land Rover dropped the ball heavy on the new defender which is basically a discovery. It feels like the era of big 4x4 are being replaced by these pavement SUV.

Great review, I have no problems with the look and the materials on the inside are really cool, my biggest problem is reliability, not just with the defender, all Land Rovers have been in the spotlight lately on serious electrical and build quality faults, the defender used to be a vehicle you could keep for years, the new one with its air suspension and special fuel filters and predictably high service and maintenance costs will not last, this you buy for leisure only and I don't really think South Africans will part with over a million rand where most of their requirements are met with a korean suv that will last a whole while longer than this. Not well done JLR group, oh and dont forget resale value will drop worse than a stone in water !, JLR should have actually given it a different name and retired the defender badge

Check out TFL car channel they bought one and it threw check engine light after going offroad once. A day after being fixed a whole bunch of toys stopped working (cameras, etc) and LR struggled to fix it. Eventually, an engineer was called in and diagnosed it as a problematic computer module which is now on backorder with no ETA. This is one a 1-week old defender. Yip, it seems the reliability concerns are justified. Such a shame.

I think they needed to make the car more appealing to more urban drivers. The Defender is a premium big SUV and this segment is largely dominated by Toyota. They needed a car that has the standard off-road capabilities that a car in its segment has, but must also be friendly to urban drivers.

More than enough space for long journey's, enough power to pull a heavily loaded trailor, not worrying to much over the kids messing on the seats on long journey's because of the materials cleaning so easily, a good looking SUV with modern skin. The only big problem is.......... Yes, you guessed it, reliability. I guess it's to early to tell if this one joins the pack. If and when it's proven it's reliable in a couple of years, the price will probably so low that i could then afford it lol

Isn’t the reality that Land Rover needed to produce a successor to the old Defender that was at least as capable off-road as it’s predecessor and much, much better on road as well? It’s a bit like comparing modern architecture with a country cottage. Both have their place but in 2020/21 it would be crazy to be pulled into producing a Defender/Toyota/Nissan look alike clone. The Grenadier may be a neat clone of the old car but at its likely price with accessories it’s doubtful that it will appeal to farmers who seem to prefer Utes and old Toyotas. The previous Defender seems to have become a hobby car with all the pluses and minuses that entails. Credit to Land Rover for producing a new car that has reasonable looks and a class leading but simple interior and modern technology . The big question is now how reliable will it be?

Awesome vehicle but its too complex, the tech will go wrong sooner or later and will cost an arm and a leg to fix after the motor plan. It's another car to throw away after 5 years. I really hate where car companies are going. I really wish they will release a far simpler and cheaper version without all the electronics and toys. Like a bigger Jimny.

@@tattttu9 You don't get it do you? This is what the Disco 5 should have been. It would have been a fine successor to the Disco 4, but not to the Defender. LR are making a huge mistake and left a gap in the market which will now be filled by the Ineos Grenadier.

@@philipjooste9075 I think you are the one not getting it, not understanding the Land rover family and their evolution. Just because the discovery 5 has a weird design doesn't make it a bad sucessor, in fact it is an astonishing car and perfectly carries what the discovery always standed for. If the new defender was the discovery 5 it would be a step back in the disco evolution and it would be untrue to its name

@@tattttu9 Well we are going to disagree on this one - the New Defender would have been a perfect evolutionary replacement for the Disco 4. Watch it cannibalise sales of the Discovery 5 - to the extent that it is likely to be dropped soon. The Disco 5 belongs in the Range Rover lineup but oh wait... that position is already taken up by the Range Rover Sport. Maybe Jaguar....?

Land Rover cannot make a simple vehicle reliable, how on earth will this vehicle with its 85 ECUs be anything that resembles reliable. When the motor plan runs out it it will become the motoring equivalent of persona non grata

It's such a pity that Land Rover has missed the goal. They have outpriced themselves completely. Only government officials can now afford Land/Range Rovers. I predict Defender will be dead within 5 years. Please bring the Ford Bronco to SA - now THAT will sell. And Ciro is an underrated superstar - even Elon Musk watches his reviews 😜

No doubt the new defender is a better machine. In almost every way. My main issue with it however is the more you dent it the uglier it will look. With the old defender a dent was considered a beauty spot. This is important if you want to take the car seriously off road.
