2027 Defender 130: A Three-Row SUV Blending Luxury with Serious Capability
The 2027 Defender 130 stakes out a unique identity in the lineup. Land Rover St. Louis can help you compare it to its smaller siblings and other models we carry. Let's take a closer look at its specifications and capabilities.
Power and Performance
The base powerplant in this new Land Rover model is a 296-horsepower 3.0-liter mild-hybrid inline-six engine. It's coupled to an eight-speed automatic transmission, AWD, and a Twin-Speed Transfer Box®. The upper 2027 Defender 130 trims use a six-cylinder unit making 395 horsepower, allowing these models to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 6.3 seconds. Standard Electronic Air Suspension® manages ride height, while Hill Descent Control and Hill Launch Assist handle grades and loose surfaces with less driver input, decreasing stress and fatigue in challenging driving conditions.
Technology Features
The 2027 Defender 130 interior turns every drive into a memorable - and very comfortable - experience. The S trim opens the lineup with a sliding panoramic roof, cabin air purification, and three-zone climate control that includes rear heating and cooling assist. Stepping up to the Vertex trim brings Windsor leather, fourteen-way heated and cooled front seats, four-zone climate control, and Meridian® Surround Sound. The Outbound edition takes a different approach entirely, with Ebony Morzine headlining and a chopped carbon-fiber interior finish setting it apart inside.
Safety Features
The 2027 Defender 130 supports everyday confidence with a broad set of driver assistance and stability systems, while additional available features can help with visibility, parking, and long-distance driving.

- Lane Keep Assist
- Driver Condition Monitor

Towing and Cargo
Cargo space runs from 15.3 cubic feet behind the third row to roughly 73.7 cubic feet with both rear rows folded flat, with the Defender 130 Outbound increasing the maximum to 89 cubic feet. Towing capacity reaches up to 8,200 lb with a braked trailer, supported by standard Trailer Stability Assist. When equipped with off-road tires and the Expedition Roof Rack, the SUV's static roof load capacity tops out at 661 lbs, with a 370-lb dynamic load.
