The Land Rover Defender 90 received its last update in 2012, with the most important change happening under the hood, where a 2.2-liter version of Ford’s Duratorq diesel replaced the 2.4-liter unit that became available back in 2007. Paired to a six-speed manual transmission, the new engine deliveres 122 horsepower and is sent to all four wheels. The other change was the introduction of the soft top body style to the general public, an option available to special orders and military fleet vehicles only until then. In 2016, the Land Rover Defender series got discontinued.
