New larger model gets 2+3+3 seat configuration to gatecrash full-size SUV segment.
Take a good look at the new Defender 130. Because your initial reaction to that newly extended rear overhang is almost certainly going to govern what you think about Land Rover’s latest attempt to elbow room for itself in a previously untapped market segment.
Of course, it is the Defender’s helpfully capacious dimensions - not least its pre-existing 2m of width - that has allowed Land Rover to insert a full-size third row of seats. As expected, the 130’s wheelbase is unchanged from the 110’s at 3,022mm; the transformation is confined to the overhang, which includes a ‘subtle boat-tail-style uplift’ to offer a 28.5 departure angle .
