Land Rover’s Defender lineup continues to grow. A V-8 model arrived this year. Next came the eight-passenger long-wheelbase 130. The latest Defender is the 2023 Trophy Edition, a limited production one-year-only model. Just 250 units will be available in North America. The Trophy Edition is based on the Defender 90, comes outfitted for off-road competition and is powered by the brand’s 395-hp 3.0-litre Ingenium six-cylinder engine. Pricing starts at $115,400, before shipping.
A Defender Trophy Edition purchase includes an opportunity to participate in a one-day off-road adventure in the North American Trophy Competition held at the Land Rover Experience Centre in Manchester, Vermont, starting Oct. 8, 2022
The overall winning team of the North American Trophy Competition will go on to compete in an extreme adventure competition in 2023 in the U.K.
