The Essence of the Defender – Power and Performance
Featuring the D250 Ingenium Engine
Every Defender Pacific Blue Edition proudly boasts the D250 Ingenium twin-turbo six-cylinder diesel engine paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, that enables an exhilarating power of 245 horsepower (250 PS) and a torque of 420 lb-ft (570 Nm) to both axles. Whether you’re cruising on the highway or conquering challenging off-road terrains, this powertrain ensures a thrilling driving experience.
Exterior Elegance – Inspired by the Colors of the Pacific Ocean
Sporting a Pacific Blue Matte Finish
What sets apart the Land Rover Defender Pacific Blue Edition from the standard version is its striking Pacific Blue matte finish, inspired by the captivating hues found in Australia’s East Coast Pacific Ocean. Enhancing this design are contrasting white roof accents with black roof rails along with a sliding panoramic roof and privacy glass.
With its appeal, the Defender showcases its ability to handle terrains by riding on 18-inch white steel wheels and all-terrain tires. To add to its charm, the radiator grille and door handles are highlighted in white.
Interior Sophistication
Inside, the Defender Pacific Blue Edition is based on the S trim level and exudes sophistication. The cabin features accents on the steering wheel and door panels for a striking look. The brushed finish cross-beam dashboard adds a touch to the design.
Comfort is prioritized with Ebony 12-way powered heated seats wrapped in grained leather for both driver and front passenger. Additionally, an upgraded Meridian Sound System enhances the in-cabin experience.
Designed for extreme off-road experiences, the Defender Pacific Blue Edition comes equipped with electronic air suspension, adaptive dynamics, and headlamp leveling. Its solid construction ensures a controlled ride in challenging off road conditions.
Introducing the Exclusive Badge and Surfboard
