Land Rover Defender Octa Black Edition Revealed; On The Cards For India?

Just days after revealing the Range Rover Sport SV Black Edition, Land Rover has now unleashed the Defender Octa Black Edition. As the name suggests, the Octa Black Edition is also devoid of any shiny elements on the exterior and interior. It won’t be farfetched to see the Octa Black Edition coming to India later this year or early next year. 

The Octa Black Edition gets a Narvik Black exterior and blacked-out accents in multiple shades.

The Defender Octa Black Edition gets a Narvik Black exterior colour. While the exterior accents, like front and rear scruff plates, are finished in Satin Black, the exhaust tips and more accents are finished in Gloss Black. Even the wheels, which can be either optioned to be 20 inches or 22 inches in size, are finished in Gloss Black. The standard Defender Octa also gets two new colours – Sargasso Blue and Borasco Grey.

It still has the same 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 with mild hybrid assist.

Just like the exterior, the interior also has the full dark treatment. The seats and dashboard have black leather upholstery. The accents on the dashboard have a Satin Black finish as standard,  but can be optioned to have a Chopped Carbon Fibre finish.

While there’s no confirmation of the Defender Octa Black Edition coming to India, expect it to come to our market sometime later this year or early next year. JLR brings almost every model to India, and the Octa’s new edition won’t be different.
