2018 Land Rover Defender V8

This year is the 70th anniversary of the original Land Rover defender and to honor that, Land rover has decided to release a special limited-run anniversary car. They are going to release a new defender. It will be completely updated and it will have a v8 engine. Unfortunately, they are only making 150 of these beauties for the entire world. I think that their value is going to skyrocket and getting your hands on one of these new Defenders is going to be very difficult. They are coming out this year and I'm not quite sure how the order system will work as far as who can buy them. It may just be first come, first served.
Anyway, let's talk about specs. As I've said, this is going to have a V8. It will be a 5.0 L naturally-aspirated V8 that makes about 400 bhp! That's a lot, especially for a Land Rover Defender. The thing also has a pretty quick 0-60 time. In fact, it will do 0-60 in just 5.6 seconds! That's insane! It is limited at 105 mph but with that crazy big engine, it definitely will go faster. These numbers make this the most powerful, stock, defender to ever be made and to ever hit the roads. It will also have the same crazy off-roading capabilities that the original defenders had, except, this one has more power. A lot more. It has upgraded brakes and also has upgraded automatic sports gear box. The tires are, of course, massive and perfect for off-roading adventures.
Just the specs make it sound awesome but wait till you see it! It has a stunning look and it is a truly beautiful vehicle. The have not released too much about the new Defender except for a video that shows the new one driving past old versions of the off-roader from the past 70 years. It is a good video and gives some stunning views of the vehicle that make it look really good. I think that this vehicle will become a very important part of Land Rover history and will also become a classic in the years to come. If one thing is for sure though, this Defender is awesome!
