Land Rover Defender
Modern reinterpretation of an old classic, the Defender is said to be one of the toughest SUVs ever created by the English brand. Thanks to its suspension articulation and the work of its Terrain Response electronic management system, the Defender can confront the worst surfaces and obstacles, according to its creator. Available in Canada in five-door configuration, we can equip this SUV with a 296-horsepower, turbocharged four-cylinder engine or a hybrid inline-six that produces 395 horsepower.
