New Defender 130 Outbound is introduced to the Defender line up along with the 500PS Defender 130 V8 and a new heritage-inspired County Exterior Pack for Defender 110. The new additions to the Defender brand offer more choice for Defender clients, whilst providing customary off-road capability and superior comfort.
Defender 130 Outbound is an incredibly desirable addition to the Defender family, for our most adventurous clients who love to get out and explore and need greater load carrying space with a five-seat configuration. Its unique design enhancements and spacious interior provide a compelling blend of capability and practicality. The 4×4 family offers something for everyone, with the introduction of the V8 powertrain to Defender 130, while the new County Exterior Pack celebrates Defender’s roots with a modern take on a classic design.

Fuji White, Santorini Black, Carpathian Grey and Eiger Grey make up the colour palette, while body-coloured rear signature panels and D-pillar finishers complete the exterior enhancements. For clients needing superior scratch resistance off the beaten track, the Satin Protective Film is available.
Inside, clients can choose luxurious full Windsor leather or durable Resist fabric, offering tactile material options to best suit their lifestyle. All are finished in Ebony, with an Ebony Morzine headliner, Robustec veneer and Defender’s signature cross-car beam in Satin Black Powder Coat Brushed finish.
At the beginning and end of every activity, practical touches protect the interior. Durable rubber floor matting can be folded down to protect the bumper when loading bulky or heavy equipment such as bikes or suitcases. Additional stowage areas safely store smaller items out of sight, while lashing points and a new cargo net mean a variety of outdoor equipment – large or small – can be secured while driving, ready for action on arrival.
Unstoppable 4×4 capability is provided by Defender’s proven Intelligent All-Wheel Drive System and Terrain Response 2® while Electronic Air Suspension and Adaptive Dynamics are fitted as standard. Advanced off-road driving technologies ensure effortless and reassuring progress across any terrain, with the Electronic Air Suspension allowing up to 430mm of articulation and up to 900mm of wading.
The Defender 130 Outbound can tow up to 3,000kg – meaning everything from jet skis and boats to caravans and trailers can be towed with ease. Hitching is made simpler by the air suspension, with switches inside the tailgate to raise and lower the rear of the vehicle.
Defender 130 Outbound is available with P400 petrol and D300 diesel Ingenium power. Both feature Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV) technology for optimum performance and efficiency.
Inside, luxury and dynamism come courtesy of 14-way heated and cooled electric driver memory seats finished in Ebony Windsor Leather with Dinamica® suedecloth and Robustec fabric. They are complemented by a suedecloth heated steering wheel, Ebony Morzine headlining and Satin Black cross car beam. Defender 130 V8 also features Four-Zone Climate Control, heated row-three seats and climate seats in the second row – in addition to a Meridian Sound System, Head-Up Display, Interactive Driver Display and Cabin Air Purification Plus.
The awarding-winning Pivi Pro infotainment features an 11.4-inch glass touchscreen with Software Over The Air capability meaning it is always up to date. Standard Wireless Apple CarPlayTM is included. Wireless Android Auto® is also standard. And what3words addressing technology is integrated for accurate destination finding in even the most remote locations. Wireless Device Charging provides fast and cable-free charging, while Alexa voice AI provides intuitive control of key vehicle functions.
The County Exterior Pack is available for 110, in S, SE and HSE derivatives. County graphics along the doors and body sides are the most eye-catching addition, while illuminated treadplates welcome the driver and passengers with a unique County graphic. Eye-catching 20-inch alloys are available in two finishes, including Gloss White to complement the exterior pack’s signature aesthetics.
The available colour combinations include:
- Fuji White body with new Tasman Blue Contrast Roof and Tailgate, plus Tasman Blue gradient graphic decal and treadplate
