Land Rover Defender Double Cab Locally-Assembled Version Launched

Land Rover Malaysia has launched the new Land Rover Defender 110 Double Cab pick-up for RM 148,888 (on-the-road without insurance) in Peninsular Malaysia and RM 152,388 in East Malaysia, where, the company says, the Defender is well-received due to the rugged terrain.

Locally-assembled in Inokom's plant in Kulim, Kedah, the five-seater Defender, which enjoys a legendary status in the U.K. at least, now comes with 16" alloy wheels, front power windows, reverse sensors and leather seats. The interior still adopts the no-nonsense, ultra-utilitarian approach of the exterior, offering a basic dash architecture and materials designed to “withstand extreme weather conditions”.

Power is derived from a 2.4-litre four-cylinder turbodiesel engine capable of churning out 122 hp at 3500 rpm and 360 Nm at just 2000 rpm. Naturally, the generated output goes to all four wheels via a six-speed manual gearbox. Low-range gearing and locking centre differential are standard features as expected.

AboutSeow Yaohan

Seow Yao Han strives to bring you the latest and the most comprehensive information on cars available in Malaysia. But it's never easy for him to talk and write cars in this part of the world because what you lust after is often not what you drive home. When the euphoria of test-driving that branded, super-expensive sports car dies down, he just goes home in his less-than-glamorous ride.
