STRENGTH
There are some things that’ll never need improving. The chassis is one
of them. Immensely strong, it is probably the single most important
component in Defender’s design architecture and contributes to the
vehicle’s strength, versatility, durability and capability. The box section,
ladder frame design is far stronger than an open channel design and more
adaptable than the unibody design favoured by many of its competitors.
And there’s the body. It’s tough, with a no-nonsense, functional simplicity and a slab-sided profile that makes it all the
more adaptable and enhances configurability. Bolt on accessories such as chequer plates, ladders and expedition roof
racks are easily attached. The lightweight aluminium body not only improves fuel consumption, it also increases payload,
the vehicle’s capability, and gives an optimum trade-off between form and function. Indeed, the corrosion-resistant
aluminium body panels have evolved directly from those on the original 1948 Defender. Even the cargo bed is made
of aluminium. So even the cargo bed won’t rust. You can depend on your Defender.
