I Drove the 2025 Land Rover Defender 90 V8 Carpathian and LOVED It!

The 2024 Defender 90 Carpathian Edition is a retro-revival SUV. It is available as a two-door two-row (Defender 90) is also available as a 4-door with 2-row as a Defender 110 and a long wheel base 3-row Defender 130.

· New on Defender 90 for 2024 includes a flat loadspace Cover with integrated storage, which helps ensure a flat load floor.
· The Carpathian Edition is the same as the V8 model, but with Carpathian Grey paint and a Satin Protective Film Wrap on the exterior except the Hood, Roof, and Tailgate (which are Gloss Black), providing a subtle and sporty contrast.
· For 2025 the Carpathian Edition is now offered as a package on V8 rather than a standalone trim level as on this 2024 model.

The 518 HP supercharged gas V8 engine takes you from 0-60 mph in as little as 4.9 seconds with a top speed of 149 mph. The Defender 90 has 461 pound-feet of torque.
