Can a Range Rover beat a Defender OFF-ROAD?!

Welcome to the ultimate Land Rover off-road video!

We’ve got Mat lining up in the new Range Rover V8, and he’s about to face off against the new Defender V8! Now people might naturally assume that the Defender will win this hands down, but these cars are actually more similar than you might think!

Starting with the Range Rover, it’s packing a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 under the bonnet, which is good for 530hp and 750Nm of torque. It’ll come as no surprise that it’s pretty heavy, weighing in at 2,510kg, but then again it is packing a whole load of kit to help it traverse this off-road course, including air suspension, AWD as well as front & rear diffs.

Naturally, the Defender comes with similar off-road capabilities, but under its bonnet, you’ll find a 5-litre supercharged V8! As a result, the Defender is able to put down 525hp and 625Nm. It’s also slightly heavier than the Range Rover, coming in at just over 2,600kg.

Finally, we have the price, and neither of them are cheap! While the Defender costs £111,000, the Range Rover costs an eye-watering £138,000! But which is better off-road? Will the Defender edge it? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S DO THIS!Can a Range Rover beat a Defender OFF-ROAD?!
