What’s New, Models, Specs & Lineup
The 2026 Defender 110 introduces Woolstone Green Metallic as an exclusive new color and adds the 635-hp P635 OCTA to the lineup. Towing capacity reaches 8,200 lbs and ground clearance extends to 11.5 inches, both unchanged from the prior year but now available across an expanded model range. This page covers every model, powertrain, and capability spec, with current inventory at Land Rover Clear Lake in Friendswood.
The headline addition for 2026 is the Defender 110 P635 OCTA, a flagship configuration producing 635 hp from a 4.4L twin-turbo V8 mild hybrid. It represents the most capable and performance-focused Defender 110 the nameplate has offered.
Alongside the OCTA, Woolstone Green Metallic is introduced as a 2026-exclusive exterior finish, expanding a color palette that already includes Fuji White, Santorini Black Metallic, Borasco Grey Metallic, Tasman Blue Metallic, Gondwana Stone Metallic, and Carpathian Grey Premium Metallic. The Trophy Edition models add Deep Sandglow Yellow and Keswick Green as limited finishes specific to those configurations.
Standard electronic air suspension carries over and continues to deliver up to 11.5 inches of ground clearance at maximum off-road ride height and 35.4 inches of water wading depth, numbers that place the Defender 110 among the most capable full-size four-door off-roaders in its segment.
The 2026 Defender 110 is offered in eight configurations.

The entry configuration is built around the 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder producing 296 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque. It arrives with standard air suspension, Terrain Response 2, a 13.1-inch Pivi Pro touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and the full standard safety suite.

110 P400 X-Dynamic SE steps up to the 3.0L six-cylinder Twincharger mild hybrid and adds sport-influenced exterior and interior styling along with an upgraded Meridian audio system.

110 P400 Trophy Edition is available in Keswick Green and Deep Sandglow Yellow. This limited model highlights the Defender’s heritage identity with model-exclusive color pairings and specification.

110 P400 X is the top P400 configuration, adding off-road-focused specification and premium interior content above the X-Dynamic SE.

110 P500 X-Dynamic SE introduces the supercharged V8 powertrain family with the P500 configuration delivering more power than the P400 while retaining X-Dynamic SE exterior and interior treatment.

110 P525 V8 is powered by the 5.0L supercharged V8. This model emphasizes straight-line performance paired with full Defender 110 capability.

110 P635 OCTA is the flagship Defender 110 and uses the 635-hp 4.4L twin-turbo V8 mild hybrid. The OCTA is the most performance-oriented Defender 110 configuration available.

110 P635 OCTA Black builds on the OCTA with OCTA Black-exclusive exterior treatment and an elevated specification level.
Four distinct powertrains are available across the 2026 Defender 110 lineup.
The base P300 uses a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder producing 296 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque. EPA fuel economy is rated at 18 city / 21 highway / 19 combined for this configuration. An 8-speed automatic transmission and full-time AWD with a high/low-range transfer case are standard across all models.
The P400 upgrades to a 3.0L six-cylinder Twincharger mild hybrid, blending a conventional combustion engine with a 48-volt mild hybrid system for improved efficiency and low-end torque response.
The P500 and P525 configurations use the 5.0L supercharged V8, prioritizing power output for buyers who want performance alongside the Defender’s off-road credentials.
The P635 OCTA uses a 4.4L twin-turbo V8 mild hybrid producing 635 hp. It is the most powerful production Defender offered and is tuned specifically for the OCTA program’s performance targets.
Regardless of powertrain, every Defender 110 delivers up to 8,200 lbs of towing capacity and up to 11.5 inches of ground clearance through the standard electronic air suspension.

The Defender 110 seats seven passengers across three rows. The third row creates genuine passenger space in a body that is 211.7 inches long and 77.6 inches tall, dimensions that provide the interior volume to support full three-row use without compromising cargo access.
Cargo behind the third row measures 10.7 cubic feet. With the third row folded, cargo behind the second row opens to 34.0 cubic feet. Maximum cargo capacity with rear rows folded reaches 78.8 cubic feet.
Payload capacity ranges from approximately 1,750 lbs to 1,984 lbs depending on whether the vehicle is configured in five-passenger or three-row layout.
Interior materials vary by model, with upper configurations offering premium leather seating, contrast stitching, and metal trim accents that reflect the Defender’s design philosophy, functional luxury rather than ornamentation for its own sake.

Every 2026 Defender 110 is equipped with the 13.1-inch Pivi Pro touchscreen. The system integrates Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard, along with Bluetooth wireless technology and a Wi-Fi hotspot for connected use on or off road.
Terrain Response 2 is standard across all models, allowing the driver to select from multiple drive modes optimized for conditions including sand, mud, rocks, and paved surfaces. Adaptive Off-Road Cruise Control is available, enabling controlled crawl speed on technical terrain without constant brake and throttle input.
Adaptive Cruise Control handles highway driving, and ClearSight Ground View, available on equipped models, projects a camera feed of the ground ahead of the front wheels onto the Pivi Pro screen, a practical aid on rocky trails and tight approach angles.
The Meridian audio system delivers premium sound and is fitted to mid and upper model levels across the lineup.

Standard safety equipment on every 2026 Defender 110 includes:
These systems operate alongside the Defender’s passive structural safety architecture. The 360-degree surround camera is particularly useful during off-road use, where proximity to obstacles at low speed is a practical concern rather than a highway driving one.
The 4-year / 50,000-mile basic and powertrain warranty applies to the 2026 Defender 110 across all model levels.

Buyers returning from a 2024 or 2025 Defender 110 will find the core capability unchanged, which is appropriate given how strong that foundation already is. The meaningful additions for 2026 are the P635 OCTA and OCTA Black configurations for buyers who want a Defender built around performance as much as off-road function, and Woolstone Green Metallic for buyers who want a color that is exclusive to this model year.
The P300 S remains the right starting point for buyers who want full Defender 110 capability at the most accessible specification level. The P400 models, particularly the X-Dynamic SE and Trophy Edition, represent the volume of the lineup where specification and value align well. The P525 and OCTA configurations serve buyers who want the Defender nameplate paired with V8 power and a distinctly driver-focused experience.
Shoppers in Friendswood and across the greater Houston area looking for a three-row SUV with genuine off-road capability and a 8,200-lb tow rating will find the Defender 110 lineup covers a wide range of priorities at a wide range of specification levels.
The 2026 Defender 110 lineup runs from the capable P300 S to the 635-hp OCTA Black, with models suited to buyers who prioritize value, adventure, heritage, or outright performance. Land Rover Clear Lake in Friendswood serves buyers throughout the Houston area and carries current Defender 110 inventory across multiple configurations.
