Indera Motors, the sole authorised distributor of Land Rover in Brunei Darussalam, hosted an exclusive preview and sungkai to unveil the upgraded Land Rover Defender 110 to invited clients and partners.
Held at Tarindak d’Polo, the private event brought together owners and brand partners for an intimate first look at the refreshed Defender 110.
The unstoppable 4×4
More than five years since its modern reintroduction, the Defender continues to define contemporary all-terrain capability. Upgrades across the line-up include a crisp new headlight design with a distinctive signature graphic when illuminated, fog lights as standard, and flush rear lights with smoked lenses.
A refreshed palette of contemporary exterior colours and finishes, including Woolstone Green and Borasco Grey, is complemented by enhanced detailing and upgraded materials. Inside, a larger 13.1-inch touchscreen provides more intuitive control for infotainment.
Technological upgrades also see Adaptive Off-Road Cruise Control available as an option on the Defender for the first time, making it even easier to negotiate rough terrain in comfort.
Mark Cameron, Managing Director of Defender, said, “More than five years after its introduction, Defender has become an enduring success. With a bloodline that can be traced back to the first Series I of 1948, Defender continues to capture the imagination of our clients.
“With production at full capacity to meet demand, the latest changes are part of our continuous commitment to make adventures even more satisfying. Fresh design enhancements, new colours and an expanded range of accessories follow Defender’s comprehensive upgrade last year, ensuring our iconic 4×4 is better than ever.”
Clean yet tough exterior
Defender’s tough exterior receives optimised surfaces for the new front and rear bumpers and a new textured pattern for the bonnet inserts and side vents, creating a stronger and more adventurous look. All models now feature new Gloss Black Defender-branded wheel centre caps.
Redesigned headlights provide a distinctive signature when lit, while the flush-fitting tail lights now have a dark tinted finish for a clean appearance and enhanced visibility. A gloss black grille bar is also now standard, complemented by a dark oval badge.
A new precision-crafted 22-inch seven-spoke Diamond Turned Dark Grey alloy wheel design is also available, alongside new exterior colours. Borasco Grey, a metallic grey finish, draws inspiration from the Borasco silver mine in California, while Woolstone Green is inspired by the Woolstone waterfall in the United Kingdom.
The deep green finish reflects the British outdoors with warm undertones, energised by medium aluminium and coarse yellow mica accents.
New infotainment screen and driver assistance technology
Inside, a new 13.1-inch touchscreen for the infotainment system brings Defender’s technology highlights to front-row occupants via a larger display positioned above the ergonomically repositioned dash-mounted gear shifter.
The latest centre console design allows drivers to make the most of the available space. A sliding section hides smaller items out of sight in a closed cubby while maintaining access to the deeper storage area beneath.
For those venturing off-road, Defender is now available with optional Adaptive Off-Road Cruise Control for the first time. The technology is an evolution of All Terrain Progress Control and allows the driver to set a desired comfort level when negotiating rough terrain, enabling them to focus on steering the vehicle while reducing driver effort.
The system automatically adjusts speed to maintain the desired level of comfort over uneven surfaces, delivering a smoother and more composed off-road driving experience.
