It also received a five-star rating from ANCAP in Australasia.

Euro NCAP gave these safety ratings for the 2020 Defender 110 model:

  • 85% Adult Occupant Safety Rating
  • 85% Child Occupant Safety Rating
  • 71% Pedestrian Safety Rating
  • 79% Safety Assist Rating

Nick Rogers, the executive director of Product Engineering of Jaguar Land Rover, said, “From the moment we started creating the New Defender, we were obsessed with functional safety and the protection of both the occupants and other road users. We set out to make a vehicle that is the most capable and durable Land Rover ever made, with safety features that truly enhance the driver’s experience. It’s an incredible honor to receive this recognition from Euro NCAP who have endorsed our New Defender with their five-star rating.”
