2021–2026 Land Rover Defender 110 V8 P525 Specs & Performance

The 2021–2026 Land Rover Defender 110 V8 P525 belongs to the second-generation Defender (L663), bringing a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 petrol engine to the five-door 110 body. It produces 518 hp and 461 lb-ft of torque, with an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. With its five-seat configuration, 119-inch wheelbase, and substantial ground clearance, the P525 combines the Defender's off-road character with considerably stronger road performance.

This V8 version transforms the Defender 110 into a much more performance-oriented machine without abandoning its utility-focused foundations. A 119-mph top speed and 5.2-second 0–60 mph time give it serious acceleration for a large off-road SUV, while the AWD system, long-travel suspension, and robust chassis retain its ability to handle difficult terrain. The supercharged V8 also delivers 461 lb-ft of torque at 2,500 rpm, giving the P525 strong response when accelerating or climbing.
