If you’ve been eyeing the Defender 110, the new ₹99 lakh price tag means your budget stretches further—a ₹14 lakh cut on the 2.0‑litre turbo‑petrol X‑Dynamic HSE.
The shift to local CKD kit assembly from Slovakia slashes the hefty import duty that kept the SUV expensive. By building the vehicle in India, JLR cuts the tariff that previously added roughly ₹1.5 crore to the ex‑showroom price.
That savings trickles into a richer standard list. The 2.0‑litre now comes with adaptive off‑road cruise control, electronic air suspension, a fridge in the console, and 14‑way heated seats—all worth up to ₹6.5 lakh.
The 3.0‑litre diesel and turbo‑petrol variants sit at ₹1.18 crore, down ₹34 lakh from their former ₹1.52 crore import price, and now get 20‑inch alloy wheels, a Meridian surround‑sound system, a head‑up display, and heated third‑row seating.
In the premium off‑road market, the Defender now sits just below the Range Rover Sport and a touch above the Toyota Land Cruiser, offering a more aggressive off‑road DNA with lower cost of ownership.
Local deliveries kick off on 15 November, and the Defender 90, 130, and V8 models will continue to arrive as CBUs.
