The OCTA was last year rolled out as the most powerful Defender. It's 4,4ℓ twin-turbo mild-hybrid V8 petrol engine which produces a whopping 467kW of power and tree stump-displacing 750Nm of torque speaks for itself. Not to mention its 6D Dynamics suspension, and dedicated OCTA Mode for performance off-road driving.

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has recently introduced the OCTA Black, which features extensive black detailing to give the most capable and most luxurious model in the Defender family a more purposeful presence and greater luxury. This exclusive 110 is only offered in Narvik black paintwork, said to be the truest black on the Defender colour palette. Narvik black comes with a gloss finish as standard, but clients will also have the option of fitting the matte protective film.
