As if the regular Defender isn't already a premium vehicle. They just took it once more to a higher notch with the Octa. For me, the Edition 1 (off-road version) is the creme de la creme.
Went to the reveal and the regular OCTA imho was better. Maybe it was the way that it was spec’d but the edition one leaned too heavily into the off road appearance.
@@TheCorneaImpression another thing the guide told me was to go with the 22” wheel option no matter which one I selected because the computers are programmed different based on the tire size.
Current Defender is good enough. The V8 is already too heavy and spoils the dynamics of the car. Take the extra cash and spend it something else the brings you joy ✌🏻
@@glenwerline3876 Glen it definitely should be discussed. Jaguar had multiple special projects few years ago targeting collectors. It was the Project 7 and then the Project 8. We can see a similar thought process being used for the Octa. Few months ago we also had the opportunity to witness the Range Rover Sadaf Edition and before that the Sport SV. As time will go on their will be more exclusive products that the company will make especially after they completely adapt the House of Brands strategy. On our channel we had interviewed a couple of their top guys do watch it if you have the time. Also would love to hear your thoughts on why Jaguar should not be included.
@@TheCorneaImpression I think 95% of the owners will drive the edition one models, first its a defender which means its not a flex car normaly, second its not that "real collectable" like others
@@berekbarna2534 by drive i mean you assume to the mall or to a restaurant. 99% will never off road it. It’s not a full on collectable that will appreciate but a car that will be noted in history. So will maintain some intrinsic value.
@@GentlemanJamesWin you are absolutely correct James. That was my mistake. It is an 8 speed auto box. Had 10-12 minutes to film and the raw footage which has the correct take wasn’t handed over to us. Thanks for pointing it out.
That's a lot of tough talk for a car that looks like a square eyed uncle with a hat on who's really pretending to be way more stylish at the party than he actually is. While having a borrowed engine which will be, wait for it...., 20 years old in 3.5 years. The engine has had only 3 minor updates over the years and last one was in 20-frickin-18, all the while it being originally developed for sedans like M5 or 5 series. My bi-annual ritual for quite a while involved going to the dealership and getting M5 deal with its PTSD like behavior over its fuel injector or low pressure fuel sensor issues which are all Engine issues. Imagine my surprise when the same load of bollocks is being offered at 1 Cr higher than the cars which have the same dinosaur juice digestion system. (Yes, If you haven't judged by now it is particularly late in the night and I've had quite a few, but the truth needs to be said! Do not take or adhere to words blindly men! Go forth and seek out your own truth.) To the well dressed fella in the video, you've got the looks and commanding presence on the screen, please don't ruin it by wearing a Tudor. Show a little more personality.
HAhahahahhaha Prabhat! Loved reading all of that! Good, the man has been through his own experience which is great. Talking about the V8, yes, it has had its own fair share of issues, but at the same time was a genuinely good-performing engine. It definitely has become antiquated, but it is better than a lot of modern engines out there. Now, the Octa is a business move and ego purchase. Nothing to do with functionality. For that, you have the regular Defender. Look at it as a collectable and not a tool. Regarding me (the presenter), thanks for the compliment; I appreciate it. Regarding the few drinks, I hope they were really some good quality stuff. Cheers to the next session. Let me know what it is, and I might join. For the Tudor. Do not diss my Tudor! I love it. People who have Tudors know their watches, and usually, there are others lying around....
I can't express how beautiful 😍 it looks. Absolute beast!
British elegance at its finest
With indian money
It's Indian brand brother 😂
@@sm1sm121 yeah but all credit goes to JLR
British elegance my ass
I am a Indian my self I am sorry for these fools saying it’s Indian it’s just owned by Indian company and not designed by them
Hasn't change too much but looks better than last year
@@hamza89868 looks very different! Have to see it in person
Better than a G-wagon
@@amitmoryani9137 ahahah yeah!

@@karlluissenir8648 can’t fault your choice!
This octa defender is the best offroader car.
Absolutely incredibly stunning! WOW!
Nice
Only when I thought nothing can beat the beauty of a defender, Range Rover introduces the Octa! This is a masterpiece of a vehicle.
@@rodriguezahr we have to agree!
Nothing looks like a New Defender on the road. This design is truly a masterpiece. Can't wait to see the Octa in person.
@@sequoia689 I want to see it move!
1000% Agreed! Breathtaking
I’m getting one for on road,one for off road and one for the butler to pick me up from the boozer .
It's dream car for me, I will buy one day
Nice
I will buy off roading...
This defender is best
Dude probably screams OCTA when he finishes !
Ps : octa car , looks hella octa !
Went to the reveal and the regular OCTA imho was better. Maybe it was the way that it was spec’d but the edition one leaned too heavily into the off road appearance.
@@teriok6783 just preference i guess. I would go with the street style in this.
@@TheCorneaImpression another thing the guide told me was to go with the 22” wheel option no matter which one I selected because the computers are programmed different based on the tire size.
@@teriok6783 they are set differently. But i think the on road pack on this car is setup better.
So the engine is from BMW!
that's very nice
@@robertw.1499 correct!
I have $21 dollars what can i get :(
@@Miick3y the scale car!
@@TheCorneaImpressionlol
Does it have a sunroof?
OCTA-vey… 🥸
My dream.....2029.......
Soon
My beauty
Sir is the standard octa Petra will be come as limited number like the edition one ?
Or it will stay like other defender, in long production
@@vargabsingh964 limited numbers. The entire Octa series will be made in limited numbers.
@@TheCorneaImpression thankyou sir❤️
My son doing job as R & D Engineer in JLR, feeling proud
@@BJ-fp2kc doing a great job!

@@wozzco8111 for me the p400 110 is the best Defender you can buy.
Consider not adding Jaguar to your discussion. It’s simply Land Rover, not Jaguar Land Rover.
@@glenwerline3876 Glen it definitely should be discussed. Jaguar had multiple special projects few years ago targeting collectors. It was the Project 7 and then the Project 8.

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Kay say hay (Hindi) my friend….
Does the OCTA come with a curry hook like the early Discovery????
Kind regards Ian 👨🎤👍🇳🇿🍸🍸
Why 20" wheels for off roading ...any specific reason
@@gadoolirr4302 would you want smaller or larger? Nothing that was explained in particular to us.
Smaller rims of course. There is still very limited rubber.
@@influxreptile yeah but it’s also the compound, sidewall size, and tread that come into play.
You could get 21 too I believe they offer different trims
😂😂😂
🎉
Not chopped carbon it’s forged carbon
@@Vir.1999 it is chopped carbon fiber. Forged is made out of a different process. And they look different as well.
I went to a reveal, it is chopped carbon.
Nyccc❤
How does it matter how fast an off-road specific SUV can go or does it?
@@OlllOHD it’s a flex car. Most owners will probably never drive it. Also it’s a bed for JLR to showoff their abilities as well.
@@TheCorneaImpression I think 95% of the owners will drive the edition one models, first its a defender which means its not a flex car normaly, second its not that "real collectable" like others

Fair, I thought you meant not drive at all
@@berekbarna2534 i am pretty sure there will be that one guy 🤣. I have seen a 0 km project 8.
The shots of the vehicles are terrible. Should have had better angles etc.
@@Josh-l9q6s will let JLR know!
Nice
Which version would you go with? Edition 1 or just octa...
Octa…….
Defender Hawk Tuah
