The 2027 Land Rover Defender Sport is an all-new compact luxury off-road SUV that brings the iconic Defender design to a smaller, more urban-friendly package. Built on Jaguar Land Rover’s innovative EMA electric platform, it is expected to be the first fully electric model in the Defender family, with potential plug-in hybrid options in some markets. The SUV is designed to maintain strong off-road capability while improving performance, offering features such as dual-motor AWD, fast charging capability, and multiple Terrain Response Modes for different driving conditions.
