Land Rover has also equipped the new model with a system that automatically detects what surface it is driving on and optimizes the Defender accordingly. The driver can also manually adjust the steering, throttle and suspension settings. There is also a new driving mode called "OCTA." In this mode, an Off-Road Launch control is activated and the ABS is adjusted to make it more effective on loose surfaces. The same range of Terrain Response modes as other Defenders are present, including Sand, Mud and Ruts, Grass Gravel Snow and Rock Crawl options.
Defender OCTA has a new look
Thanks to the new model's dramatic stance, it immediately stands out from smaller Defender variants. It features 33" Goodyear Advanced All-Terrain tires, widened wheel arches, a thoroughly revised front end and a new rear bumper with four exhaust pipes. All OCTAs get a two-tone paint job with Narvik Black roof and tailgate, and owners can choose to have a matte protective film applied to the entire bodywork.
The changes continue in the cabin. Two new Ultrafabric options are available, while the Defender OCTA includes Burnt Sienna semi-aniline leather with Kvadrat textile trim as standard. Land Rover has also gone to the trouble of designing new seats for the model and installed a new sound system, which the brand says allows front passengers to "feel as well as hear the music".
