Auto Car | 2010 Land Rover Defender 90 SVX. | Land Rover has released a new image gallery of its limited edition Defender SVX that was first announced last November. Built to celebrate the British marque's 60th anniversary, the Defender SVX will be available in both 90 soft-top and 90 station wagon versions.Offered exclusively in metallic black paintwork, the SVX features subtle satin black graphic decals, special badging, silver finish for the tubular side-steps, the front grille and new clear-lens headlamps. Additionally, all SVX models are equipped with new five-spoke alloy wheels, a reinforced aluminium front undershield and clear LED rear lights. On the inside, the SVX boasts custom-designed Recaro front seats, an iPod cradle and Garmin satellite navigation, alloy gear knobs, a new audio system along with an individually numbered plaque.
The full-time four-wheel drive is powered by a 90kW 2.4-litre diesel engine which punches out 360Nm of torque – 60Nm more than the 2003 model.
Combined fuel economy remains the same at a flat 10.0-litres/100km but CO2 emissions are down from 282g/km to 266.
A new six-speed manual transmission comes with a lower first gear and a higher sixth to improve both off-road ability and highway cruising refinement.
Land Rover marketing and public affairs manager, Kevin Goult, said that with almost two million units sold since 1948, the 90 has a reputation for getting you there and back regardless of climate or terrain.
“With the reintroduction of the 90 in Australia, Land Rover now offers nine different Defender derivatives, across three wheel bases.
“We believe the enhancements to the iconic Defender 90 will win the hearts and minds of new and existing customers alike,” he said.
The new 90 is shorter in length but taller than the 2003 model with a greater ground clearance (323mm).
Wading depth is up to 500mm while max towing weight with a braked trailer is 3500kg (750kg unbraked).
