I think weight reduction is more likely. If they wanted to make cash then they’d add it to the standard spec and charge more anyway. 24MY 90 D250 HSE, Tasman Blue

Lack of air suspension is more to do with weight reduction and increased payload I think. Air suspension adds 70Kg reducing the payload from 800kg (spec dependent) to 730kg

All Hard Tops will have the new 6 cylinder engines


That could be why but I suspect my suggestion why they don't put it on is nearer the truth. Good luck to anyone trying to get 800kg of stuff through the rear door. Not the greatest access for loading something really heavy into or trying to forklift a pallet in.


Bigger than the defender it replaced though Mike

Why do we all keep defending !! the stupidity of JLR , they are completely clueless in their market analysis proven by the fact they now have multiple vehicles competing in the same market segment , instead of identifying a new market segment. The mfg from japan and increasingly Korea will completely swamp JLR in the coming years.

Yeah, the Defender should have been a pedal-powered Smart Fortwo rival.
