Guys I have to point out this is the All new defender “County”. Not “Country”. Something that was not available before. We should rejoice in its presence lol.

[@GregsMowing]

[@TFLnow]

Hey guys, one correction for the video: This Defender 110 is has the "County Exterior Pack" with the white steelies among other cosmetic differences, rather than the *Country* Pack that's available under accessories for certain Defender trims. It's confusing for sure, but we did indeed make a mistake on that one here - sorry about that. Thanks for watching!

[@mendeltomas]

Dear god!

[@kevindematteis2243]

Not being much of a car guy (my love are HD Softails and BMW R18B motorcycles), I bought the 6 cylinder Defender 110 XE a few weeks ago and absolutely LOVE it. It's luxury tank that will plow through anything and the interior is so classically detailed. My wife's Jeep Cherokee seems like a plastic toy compared to this solidly built beast. Couldn't be more happier. Although I rarely would say this, this Land Rover is definitely worth the money. By the way, the screen is a perfect size and is proportional to the dashboard.

[@craigmclaughlin7870]

The Ingenium straight 6 has both a centrifugal supercharger and turbo charger which work together. Supercharger kicks in at lower RPM via 48v system for quick torque then the traditional turbo charger kicks in at higher RPMs. Interesting setup harking back to old Lancia analog compounded supercharged/turbo systems in their early 80’s rally cars.

[@jgk200]

Try the rolling the knob / barrel on the left side of the steering wheel… Controls volume as well…😊

[@TreatsOnTheStreets]

The 110 is the sweet spot. I think the proportions are the most appropriate as well. Id be curious to see the longevity of the engine. Right now all the straight 6s on the market seem to be great even if they arent from BMW.

[@springertube]

Good observation on the sweetspot.

[@fpartidafpartida]

The volume knob makes sense where it’s at. It allows the passenger (usually the better half 😜) to have control of the sound level. The driver will usually use the steering wheel control to set the volume.

[@BBPlasSVT]

[@brucelumsden94]

Yes I see the previous comment, County was the top of the range model back in the day when just known as LR110. We owned one for fourteen years, it was our family car when our kids were growing up.

In the UK every one goes for the 3 litre 6 cylinder diesel, a load more torque and nearly 30 mpg.

The size of that screen is perfect for a car that wants to look like a car, and not a toy with a huge screen to play videogames. Well done! Thanks for the video.

[@hedydd2]

How can you not like any hybrid vehicle? When driving or at any time, you just do not notice that this is a mild hybrid. In fact it doesn’t do much even for the fuel consumption. It’s only a small advantage for only an equally small purchase price disadvantage

[@Isha048]

@@hedydd2 After filling the tank, why should I like wasting other time to charge a huge stupid battery?

[@1guyin10]

You are talking about a plug in hybrid. Regular hybrids don't require charging. They capture excess energy during braking, etc.. and store it to assist when needed. There's no interaction by the driver and you probably won't even notice that it's there.

[@hedydd2]

COUNTY not coUNTRY pack! I had a LR 110 County Station Wagon back in 1983. One of the first. It was a disaster in terms of reliability, yet I ran a 1984 110 HiCapacity pickup for 22 years of hard farm work with minimal issues. The contrast was massive.

The Ineos will give a better offroad experience as the trails get harder. Given that i spend more time driving to destinations than offroading on trails the defender is going to score higher as a daily driver. Once the gx550 shows up, defender will have a true luxury competitor. For now, only the defender has a swb version, love my d90

[@timoliver8940]

Such a pity you guys across the pond don’t get the fabulous 3ltr 6 cylinder diesel MHEVs - so smooth, quiet , powerful and economical. Yes you are right about handing the screen and the press button panel / knobs beneath it. My D250 90 sounds like a V8 when you press on, and that’s on the OEM / factory exhaust system.

[@J.Young808]

The EPA is an outhouse. I miss Diesel cars, I grew up with a 1976 Mercedes 240D (had to pull out a lever to warm the glow plugs) my parents bought it 2 months after I was born and a 1980 300TD wagon we bought from our friends. I then just traded away my 2014 BMW 328d sedan for a shirt of of a Model Y which I got Lemon Law’d after 5 months.

[@kaileysweeney4240]

I expect a 90 optioned with the stealies, off-road tires (from factory) the air suspension and locking diffs will be as off-road capable as the Ineos. I think the Ineos is so much of a heavy truck that it will struggle over obstacles the 90 will skip over, especially with the higher tide height/articulation of the air suspension. I’d love to see an over landing video of the Land Rover, new Land Cruiser, Ineos, Wrangler, Bronco, and G-Wagen over an extended course like the old Camel Trophy. Perfect for Top Gear, The Grand Tour, Nat Geo, History Channel or Amazon. I’d pay to watch it.

[@mikeattheimagebusiness6215]

Have a look at some of the Australian reviews who do this. Robert Pepper auto journalist (Aus) is also in depth. TFL is my favourite in the US.

[@alexsystems2001]

I was considering the grenadier but I’ve seen a few videos where even with the solid axels on the grenadier, it’s just so heavy and the articulation is sort of meh and the ground clearance is sort of meh that it’s sort of meh. I watched a comparison grenadier vs wrangler and the CHEAPER wrangler seemed to have an easier time getting around than the grenadier. So it’ll be interesting to see a defender against the grenadier. I think for probably 95% of the things you’d use the grenadier for the defender will get you there too.

[@zachowens1412]

Land Rover knows who’s in charge of the radio. The Wife. That is why the volume button is on that side. :)

It's time for a "redemption" episode. Just get a set of aftermarket tires that won't puncture on a cactus needle and take it up redcone. Toyota outfits their "offroad" TRDPro with tires fit for a crossover SUV, and the first thing anyone who wants to offroad one of those would do is change the tires. Do it on this. Get a set of 265/60/20 BFG Ats and Redcone it.

[@springertube]

Face it, it's a dumb location, put it in the middle then, duh, equal access. Some just like to use the knob instead of wheel, out of habit/intuitive from 60+ automotive industry standard, using the wheel to concentrate on driving, some like to use both (either) depending on driving situation Etc.

When you talk about “off road” capability, you seem to only refer to rock crawling, where I assume a wrangler is better. The defender is better in the mud, so it depends on the off road terrain you are referring to.

Question: considering the experiences you've had with the Defender, would you still consider owning another one, or will you pick something else?

[@HiPlains1]

These are cool but seriously you have to be some kind of nut to buy these British engineered piles of crap. This one made Slovakia but if anything they are worse then the crap made in the UK. Its a hard pass for me. The fact that most owners dump them before the warranty expires is telling.

[@rl9810]

@@HiPlains1 I've had my LR4 for 8 years and with relatively few problems. My next vehicle is probably going to be a Land Rover (or maybe the Grenadier). Most people who rail on Land Rover reliability are people who've never owned one or bought a clapped out, uncared for used one for pennies on the dollar. Yes, TFL had their issues with the white one they bought, but that appears to have been a somewhat isolated incident. Theirs threw codes nearly from the start, which seems to be a first-year hiccup on an entirely brand new vehicle model and not emblematic of long-term reliability. Every manufacturer has them, even Toyota. The 2.0 4cyl turbo on these has proven to be fairly reliable.

[@matraz10]

If you access the computer of the Defender you can turn on the key fobs tailgate release button. Yes, it will open the rear door. Nothing like fully opening it, but it will just pop open an inch when its unlocked. All the hardware is already built into the vehicle and the software is already in its computer. Land Rover just switched the function off and it is as simple as turning it back on. Oh also if all the other doors are locked and you use the tailgate button on the key fob, the back door will open without turning on in interior lights.

[@StephenFogarty2023]

Nathan The P400 is an excellent engine The Defender 110 weighs about 2.4 tonne, unladen. Then add passengers etc And It’s not an aerodynamic shape Of course, fuel economy won’t be brilliant ! The same engine in other ( lighter weight JLR product ) Has much better economy… Roman, The multi function display screen fitted in that vehicle, looks like the smaller one, not the larger 11.4 inch size, that is available. Humongous screens that dominate the interior, might look very flashy, but….. Defender is not trying to be that type of vehicle. Defender is offered in different body styles, different engines, different trim levels etc Many factory options & accessories etc It’s a very comfortable daily driver, with tech and safety features. Fantastic off road ability ( way more then 90 % of buyers will require ) comes standard. No wonder Defender is an ongoing worldwide sales success for LR. If you want a lot more off road capability, as some do, modify it to suit your specific requirements EG - Steve Burt Who was on your channel, with his modified Defenders… Defender is also a fantastic overlanding vehicle… Grenadier is not as comfortable etc, as a daily driver. Wrangler off the showroom floor, might have more off road capability, but it’s not as good as Defender, with regards to comfort & daily driving etc People buy what they like & what suits them If that’s a Wrangler, great If that’s a Grenadier, great Each to their own… And Can’t u read the badge It says County Not CountRy ! County was a Defender model offered many years ago with previous generation Defender.. 🤷🏻‍♂️ And Hardly surprising that many companies, such as Kia, and Toyota with new Prado are copying the styling of Defender…

It can do pretty much whatever standard Rubicon can, except you risc to damage more in case of driver's mistake, but it also can steer pretty well, it doesn't have as much aerodynamic noise at high speeds, it rides better, has better interior and is a little roomier. The only other vehicle on the market that can do it all is Grand Cherokee

[@jimjones-pz1tt]

[@Dusdaddy]

These have gone the way of Jeep and Broncos. The need to focus so much on the on-roadness that the off-roadness becomes this exotic engineering. And because of that, they are priced right out the door. The days of the CJ, the Isuzu Amigo or even the Samauri are sadly gone. Hell, even the Small trucks are priced out of existence. I would love to pick up an expensive second vehicle for off-roading but they don't exist other than the used market.

You get nothing from LR sales people but condescending attitudes regarding how much they think they owe you nothing and you should just buy the thing with their own poor financing, high interest rates, pay MSRP etc. The majority of their cars are on their lots for 4 months or more and they haven't caught on to the fact that it is no longer a sellers market.

​​​@@davva360Unless I'm missing something, I think that's what he meant. Swing direction wise, it's a bad design for 2/3 of the world's market, including the US and all of North America, actually most of the Americas. In addition to the other deficits of the design he did note, I was expecting Nate to mention that aspect as he was opening it. Only good for Great Britain and its existing and former colonies and others historically strongly so-influenced, and Japan. Oddly, they're not the only ones, some Americans including Jeep as well. Some fanboys have countered that (in left-hand drive countries) in case of a changing a tire on the road, with traffic it's safer to remove the tire.... but wouldn't/ couldn't you remove it before you swing the door to begin with? (And that argument doesn't hold with the right hand drive world then.). I've seen enough of these, I just think it's not on some designers' / engineers' radar. And in this case, as well as vehicles like the Lexus GX to-date, they (the accountants) are obviously catering more to their domestic markets, the others be damned. Other than that aspect, swing open gates are also problematic for loading / unloading in tight on-street parking, other limited clearance situations.

I swore Nate was going to mention as he swung it open that it also swings the wrong way--AGAINST the curb--for 2/3 of the world's market, including US / North America. Swing open gates also a mean problematic loading / unloading with tight on-street parking or other situations like inside garage, door down.

In my opinion anything that needs the amount of maintenance and fixing that the Defender needs shouldn't be considered "king of the hill"

like it the white on the roof to the back door , no 3rd row , this the ineos, the new Lexus GX550 overtrial , 4 runner , new LC1958 only good mid size 4x4's , as the rest in the rear wheel drive base suv -midsize models are all luxury or are more sport than utility

Great video and solid truck. I do feel that it should be named something else as the title of Defender now goes to Bronco, which is everything Land Rover could have made but didn't. Except for the crappy interior. Rough, square, somewhat crude, capable and most importantly SQUARE. Gerry McGovern really dropped the ball on this one.

I do not like those the white rims or the white rear door , just saying

[@toddanderson8277]

The sticker doesn't even say Country it says County ?

[@Bradimus1]

Before watching - because it broke down on the top of the hill and it is still there?

[@gratefulgresh]

Wow! This new ford mini bronco is growing on me.

[@StephenFogarty2023]

Defender was released before Bronco !

[@Mark-bu2ib]

Aw. You can’t afford the defender.
