Land Rover is more than ready to welcome a new era for their 2020 Land Rover Defender. While the overall UK media will not be getting their hands on the car due to the coronavirus, a number of them still managed to give the new Defender a shake down and here are some of their opinions.

Shortly before the world shut itself down and braced for Covid-19, Land Rover hosted an international media drive for its all-new Land Rover Defender in Namibia.
