  1. 1 With the Air suspension: the maker’s figure for the configuration with that factory option.

A dash means the maker’s documents we have don’t give that number for that configuration, and a column with no number for any configuration of the year isn’t shown. “Door label” means the maker prints it only on each vehicle’s certification label, and “not published” that the maker doesn’t print it, or points elsewhere. “Up to” is a ceiling the maker prints over several configurations; a range is the maker’s own, printed across the grades of that configuration.

02 / What changed

New for 2026

The 2026 Defender against the 2025, the previous model year we hold. Only what Land Rover’s documents show: nothing here is inferred.

  • Added: 1 configuration (110 V8 P635 (OCTA), 5 seats).
  • Dropped: 1 configuration (110 P635 (OCTA), 5 seats).
  • Same range as the 2025: towing, payload, ground clearance, curb weight and length.
  • Payload differs on 1 of 39 configurations sold in both years: −50 kg.

The 2026 documents

6 documents behind the 2026 Defender’s figures. The maker’s own come first; a third-party page fills in only a number the maker doesn’t publish, and wears its own mark.
