The only way they could tow 4000Kg is to have coupled braking systems with pin hitches and matching trailers. Exactly as was the case on the proper Defender. No way are they going to offer that as standard, you cant get the trailers easily anyway. Plus it would put it in the C1+E licence category for most drivers. No doubt it will be an option though. 2011 110 USW

Might just be a perspective of the photo thing, but the wheels looks small? Almost freelander-ish 2.4TDCI 90 - everyday brilliance

Stupid pram wheels are a 'feature' of the rest of the range these days, so sadly they probably won't be able to be upgraded to anything much bigger. --- 2006 Defender 110 SW 300Tdi • 2011 Ford Ranger XLT crewcab • 2015 Defender 110 Station Wagon Utility TDCi |

Pretty sure I read some of the mules were running 21 and 22's. Seeing how hideous they look in some of the photos it wouldn't surprise me.
Should go down very well with drug dealers and Premiership footballers though. |

the photo is new in that the laterals are more defined with the more rounded waist line, the more visible hood línes with a central protuberance and the roof with grooves, besides offering a clearer image of the frontal

Click image to enlarge It’s becoming clearer. I thought it would have a bit more hood bulge but no matter, it’s looking MIGHTY fine in that pic. 2018 RAM Power Wagon (American Muscle) 2003 Land Rover Discovery II HSE 7 (Still deciding on its role) 2004 Land Rover Discovery II SE (British Steel...& aluminum) 2015 Land Rover Discovery Sport HSE Lux (Soccer Mom car) |

Does it look good? Yes actually.
Is it anything to do with "Defender" in any meaningful sense? Hell no! 2011 110 USW 1973 Series III 1-Ton 1972 Series III 1-Ton Cherrypicker 1969 IIA 1-Ton 1966 IIA 88" |

So far I'm only seeing a re~heated Discovery... hardly class leading or indeed head turning.
