The 2027 Defender 110 is the adventure vehicle that always rises to the challenge. With standout performance capability, impressive off-road technology, and comfort you can only find in iconic British vehicles, it’s the versatile and reliable model that more than stands out from the competition. See what sets this new Land Rover vehicle apart from competing models like the 2027 Jeep® Wrangler at Land Rover St. Louis.
Power and Performance
Both SUVs offer three engine choices. The 2027 Defender 110 lineup includes:
- 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six, 296 horsepower and 347 lb-ft of torque: standard on S.
- 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six, 395 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque: standard on X-Dynamic SE, Trophy Edition, X, and Vertex.
- 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8, 626 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque: exclusive to OCTA and OCTA Black. Torque increases to 590 lb-ft in Dynamic Launch mode.
The 2027 Jeep® Wrangler offers:
- 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, 270 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque: standard on Sahara and Sport RHD; available on Sport, Sport S, Willys, Rubicon, and Rubicon X, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
- 3.6-liter V6, 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque: standard on Sport, Sport S, Willys, Rubicon, and Rubicon X; available on Sahara. A six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic transmission is offered, depending on configuration.
- 6.4-liter V8, 470 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque: exclusive to the four-door Willys 392 and Moab 392, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
As you can see when you compare them, even when the Jeep SUV has a slight edge in horsepower, it falls short on torque output. As we’re about to see, that has real-world consequences.
Towing Capability
The 2027 Defender 110 can tow up to 8,200 pounds when properly equipped, compared with up to 5,000 pounds for a properly equipped four-door 2027 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. These are maximum ratings, not capacities for every configuration; towing capability varies with powertrain, equipment, and vehicle configuration.
Space for Passengers
You can bring the whole crew in the 2027 Defender 110. Standard seating accommodates five passengers, while eligible configurations offer a seven-seat layout or a six-seat layout with second-row captain’s chairs and a two-seat third row. OCTA and OCTA Black seat five only, so the 626-horsepower V8 cannot be combined with six- or seven-passenger seating. The 2027 Jeep Wrangler seats four passengers in two-door models and five in four-door models.
Space for Cargo
The 2027 Defender 110 has an adventurous spirit — and plenty of room to carry everything you need for exploring. Behind the first row is a maximum cargo rating of up to 78.8 cubic feet, and behind the second row is 34 cubic feet of cargo space. Even when all rows are in use, it still offers up to 10.7 cubic feet of cargo space. The Jeep Wrangler has a maximum of 72.4 cubic feet of cargo space behind the driver’s seat.
