01 / Tables

Defender curb weight by model year

Curb weight is the vehicle as it leaves the factory, with its fluids but without people or cargo. Each engine, cab, drive and option adds to it, which is why it is a range. Every 2026 Defender has the Automatic. Figures in metric units; model years printed the same share one table, and a package that changes a figure gets its own row.
