After more than 30 years away, the Land Rover Defender is back with an all-new look and a more comfortable ride on pavement. The 2020 Land Rover Defender has a boxier appearance that’s similar to the Jeep Wrangler. Its high ground clearance, low front bumpers, thick horizontal lines, and square shoulders give it a rugged look that hints at its all-terrain capability. The new Defender has lots of high-tech safety and off-road features, and people on Long Island can find it at Land Rover Huntington.
