The Land Rover Defender will compete against luxury off-roaders and hardcore off-roaders alike.
The Jeep Wrangler and Grand Cherokee can overlap the Defender in price and capabilities, although die-hards aren’t easily swayed from other brands.
The G-Class is a six-figure superlative luxury machine, although top trims of the Defender may approach $100,000 with every option thrown at it.
The Toyota 4Runner is a two-row throwback SUV like the Defender, although it’s aged and can’t compete in luxury features.
The Land Rover Discovery will sit across showrooms from the Defender and may be the better pick for hauling families around town.
