EV Channels Review

The TFL Talkin' Cars episode delves into the highly anticipated 2020 Land Rover Defender, comparing its capabilities against its predecessor and other off-road contenders like the Jeep Gladiator, classic Defender, and Toyota 4Runner. While the new Defender boasts impressive technology, including advanced terrain management and a sophisticated air suspension system, the review highlights some drawbacks. The independent suspension, particularly the A-arms, can be a vulnerability off-road, and the lack of a standard rear locker on some models (like the First Edition) limits its extreme off-road prowess. The reviewer also notes the grabby brakes and the impracticality of the optional side-mounted cargo box. Despite these criticisms, the Defender is praised for its on-road comfort, powerful straight-six engine, and overall 'badass' aesthetic, making it a compelling, albeit expensive, option for overlanders and those seeking a capable, stylish SUV.
