The interiors design team at Land Rover created a new look for the Defender interior with cunning storage solutions and rugged sophistication
After nearly seventy years in production, creating a new-generation Land Rover Defender was never going to be easy. “The new Defender is respectful of its past but is not harnessed by it,” said Gerry McGovern, chief design officer, at its Frankfurt motor show unveiling. “This is a new Defender for a new age. Its unique personality is accentuated by its distinctive silhouette and optimum proportions, which make it both highly desirable and seriously capable – a visually compelling 4x4 that wears its design and engineering integrity with uncompromised commitment.”
