How Much Can a Land Rover Defender Tow?

How much can a Land Rover Defender tow? Ultimately, the Land Rover Defender towing capacity depends on your engine! A Defender with the standard P300 i4 can tow up to 7,716 pounds, while a model with the optional P400 i6 can tow up to 8,201 pounds. That’s true for both two-door Defender 90 models and four-door Defender 110 configurations, so you’ll be prepped for adventure no matter which you choose!

Land Rover Defender Engine Options

So, which Land Rover Defender is right for you? Although the engine certainly isn’t the only factor you’ll want to consider, it’s a factor that’s far too important to ignore! Here’s a brief overview of your two options:

P300 i4 – 296 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque

• Paired with an automatic transmission
• 17 mpg city and 20 mpg highway
• Top speed of 119 mph, 0-60 in 7.7 seconds

P400 i6 – 395 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque

• Paired with an automatic transmission
• 17 mpg city and 22 mpg highway

A Note on Defender Trim Levels: The Defender 90 is currently only offered in its First Edition (P400) trim. The Defender 110 can be had in base, S, SE, HSE, First Edition, and X trim levels. The smaller engine is only standard on the 110 base and the 110 S; all other models receive the P400 i6. You can enjoy the Land Rover Defender SUV’s impressive off-road capabilities with any configuration.
