Description
The Land Rover Defender 110 P525 V8 Carpathian Edition SWB is the ultimate expression of rugged capability fused with high-performance luxury. Engineered for dominance both on and off-road, this special edition Defender is powered by a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 engine that produces an exhilarating 518 horsepower and 461 lb-ft of torque, allowing it to sprint from 0–60 mph in just about 5.1 seconds—unheard of for a full-size SUV.
The Carpathian Edition is the most exclusive Defender trim, showcasing stealthy sophistication with a Carpathian Grey satin-finish body, Narvik Black contrast roof and hood, black exterior pack, and unique V8 badging. The SWB (Short Wheelbase) reference here typically applies to a subtly revised 110 wheelbase for optimized dynamics, delivering a more nimble and engaging driving experience while preserving the Defender’s legendary go-anywhere capabilities.
Inside, the cabin is loaded with bespoke touches—Windsor leather and suedecloth performance seats, a 14-speaker Meridian™ Surround Sound System, heated and cooled front seats, and a full Pivi Pro infotainment system with an 11.4" touchscreen and wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™.
Defender’s renowned off-road credentials are elevated with Configurable Terrain Response®, Electronic Active Differential, and air suspension, ensuring this V8 beast is just as capable scaling mountain trails as it is cruising city streets.
