The World's Fastest Land Rover

Our electric Land Rover has had a motor and controller upgrade. It's time to see what it can do, both on road and off road. We do a 0-60 mph test and take it into the hills of Wales to check that the off road ability of the Land Rover is still there. We also check that the regenerative braking effect of the electric motor is enough to act as a hill descent mode.
The Land Rover Defender is still 4 wheel drive, but now has a performance Tesla motor in it out of a Tesla Model S P100D, as well as the 100kWh battery pack out of the same Tesla. All the electrics are sealed so it can wade deeper than an ICE equivalent.
Is there a quicker 4x4 than this that can perform both on and off road?
BF Goodrich All Terrain tyres.
Ashcroft Transmissions upgraded half shafts, CV joints and limited slip diffs to cope with the instant torque of the electric motor.
Top Gear presenter, Paddy McGuinness, picked this Land Rover Defender as his favourite EV of 2022, and described it as "The most fun I’ve had in any car ever on Top Gear.".

I really need to come and work for you guys. Is £10 an hour OK? I know its not much, but its all I can afford to pay you.

Where is OFFROAD and MUD???????

[@martinkou3359]

It's quicker than sound, it left the frame before we heard the sound.

This man is a living legend!

If it’s not leaking oil, you’re doing it wrong.

[@charleswillcock3235]

Most people in the UK think of a battery powered vehicle and they think of an old milk float with a massive lead acid batter going at 8mph flat out. One day it will be like old telephones children will say, what people really drove around and liked ICE vehicles!

[@martincraig2013]

Probably the most reliable too.

[@2.fresh767]

Yes please.

[@MalevolentMonkeyGod]

My 110 is terrifying at 70mph. 🤣

[@grahamford05]

Presume you meant "quickest" and not "fastest"

[@TastierBackInThe80s]

Absolute perfection. Old school Landy. But it will need a roof and aircon for over here in Australia. Love it!

[@christianvann4222]

Definitely need to revisit the 0-60 in the summer with road tyres......

[@machoneboard]

This is great! Please sell it to the ‘people’!

[@Todd66]

This is the ONLY EV that is beyond appealing to me. I do not have words to convey how impressive all this is.

[@shaundavis6766]

I think you should do a electronic ford escort rx3i that's my dream classic car would love to see a video of that car being done

[@davidcassidy2944]

That is an awesome upgrade. I do think its time to get seats with headrests!

[@waynethefridgemanosborne8984]

Watching it again but never gets old . Happy new year everyone from Australia

[@Mike_Costello]

I'm watching this late on a warm night in Australia in my boxer shorts and t-shirt. Love that machine and the sound it made as you pulled up.

[@Skiridr22]

You now have land rover plaid 😂😂 I hope the chassis is up to the task. I thought I saw it flex when you pull off.
