The cornerstone of Defender's design architecture, the immensely strong chassis imparts strength, versatility, durability and capability. The ladder frame design is far stronger than any open channel design and more adaptable than some of its competitors' unibody designs. The lightweight aluminium body is tough, with a no-nonsense simplicity and an adaptable slab-sided profile that's easier to configure.

Practicality comes as standard on the Defender, so the accessories really have to earn their place. Each is designed to add capability and individuality to distinct activity groups, including several towing options, protective exterior additions, alloy wheel designs, and more. They're all available individually, too, and can be fitted at a later date if you wish.
