Land Rover Defender Africa Edition

Land Rover has officially unveiled a limited edition of the iconic Land Rover Defender called the Africa Edition. Only 50 units of this special edition will ve made and will feature several custom touches and optional extras as a part of standard equipment. The Land Rover Defender Africa Edition has been made to celebrate 67 years of ‘boldly going where no other vehicle has gone before.’

As we mentioned, only 50 vehicles of the Land Rover Defender edition will be made, all finished in a shade of Santorini black and a red two tone roof. The legendary SUV will feature specially crafted black seat covers with red piping, black allow wheels and a Bluetooth telephone connection. A snorkel, a roof rack, a rear step, bumper caps and a front protection bar will also be available as a part of extra equipment.

The Africa edition will be available in both short wheelbase Defender 90 and longer wheelbase Defender 110 models and will be powered by the same 2.2-litre, turbocharged diesel engine capable of taking the car from 0-100kmph in 15.8 seconds and a top speed of 145kmph. The engine will be mated to a 6-speed gearbox which in turn will be mated to an extremely capable 4x4 system.
