Land Rover Defender Beach Break

The new generation of the Land Rover Defender is making a big impact around the world. This reinterpretation of an icon for the 21st century is smart, capable and safe for the whole family. There’s no other vehicle like it, although it’s not the indestructible Defender we used to know. It looks tough because it is, and the different special editions we’ve seen make the British model even more appealing.

The latest addition to the list is called the ‘Beach Break’ and is an ode to summer. Although it’s a bit late and only available in the United States, we’re sure that the 20 examples that will see the light of day will sell quickly. And that’s considering its starting price is no less than $71,700 before shipping.

What makes the Land Rover Defender Beach Break different?...You’ll distinguish the Land Rover Defender Beach Break from the rest of the range by its striking, chromatic exterior. It’s finished in Tasman Blue, which takes its inspiration from the ocean. It adds a contrasting white roof, coloured graphics on the sides and a ‘Beach Break 1/20’ badge on the tailgate. The set is finished off with 20-inch white wheels.

Shod with all-terrain tyres, its adventurous qualities are enhanced by a number of accessories such as fixed side steps, mudguards and crossbars. On the other hand, and in order to improve storage, it comes equipped with crossbars and a side box with a capacity of 24 litres. Inside, there is no shortage of rubber mats and ample equipment.

Finally, under the bonnet is the 2.0 turbo 4-cylinder engine from the P300 version. It develops 300 hp and 400 Nm of torque. It is associated with an 8-speed automatic transmission and the standard all-wheel drive system. This allows it to accelerate from 0 to 96 km/h in 7 seconds and reach a top speed of 192 km/h.
