It is expected that the new car will be positioned above the Land Rover Defender Octa, and the off-road capability will be fully strengthened, which is the wildest mass production defender in Land Rover's history. In the future, it may be launched at the same time as the mid-term Land Rover Defender. Expected in late 2026 or early 2027.

In terms of appearance, this heavily camouflaged test car can see the difference from ordinary Octa at a glance, and is entirely for extreme off-road. The vehicle provides double A-column wading pipes, and A-columns on both sides are equipped with high intake pipes, which greatly increases the wading depth. The clearance from the ground of the car body is significantly higher than Octa, and it is fully optimized through the angle, approach angle, and departure angle. At the same time, the vehicle wheel arch expansion amplitude is greater, with a wider wheel gauge, off-road stability is further enhanced. Although tested at the Nurburgring, which is famous for its racetrack, the car was clearly not built for brushing lap speed, but for conquering the harshest non-paved surfaces, with the overall style pointing straight at the Mercedes AMG G 63 4 × 4 ², but without the gantry bridge structure. The mid-term transformation Land Rover Defenders briefly reviewed the upcoming mid-term transformation Land Rover Defenders. As the first mid-term transformation after the 2019 replacement, the vehicle optimized the appearance details on the basis of retaining the classic square box shape, and launched the 4-seat independent seat version for the first time. At the same time, the power system is expected to be adjusted, and the overall product strength will be further improved. In terms of medium-term Land Rover Defender power, it is expected that the new car will continue to be equipped with a 4.4T twin-turbo V8 engine, which is the same as the current Octa. As a reference, its powertrain has a maximum power of 635 horsepower, a peak torque of 750 Nm, an 8-speed automatic transmission and a four-wheel drive system, and the 0-100km/h acceleration time is only 4 seconds. However, the possibility of slightly increasing the power parameters of the new car is not excluded.
