Interior Upgrades
Passengers will benefit from a new Signature Interior Pack, featuring improved materials throughout the cabin, including heated and cooled seats with memory functions and a new suedecloth headliner. The second-row seating also receives an upgrade, with climate-controlled seats offered on all body styles. Notably, the Defender 130 gains luxurious Captain Chairs in the second row for a first-class travel experience.

Simplified Trim Levels

New Defender 110 Sedona Edition
