For off-road riders putting the beaten path in the rearview, a vehicle’s durability is a crucial part of its design. The Defender proves this in some of the world’s toughest conditions, delivering heart-pounding performance when it really counts. In fact, the Defender has been tested in some of the most unforgiving environments – from frigid cold to scorching deserts – and endured time and time again.
