Land Rover Defender Trophy Edition Unveiled- More Capable Off-Road?
Land Rover has taken the veil off a new special edition Defender, called Trophy Edition, which is a reminder of its Camel Trophy cars. In this iteration, there are multiple elements inspired by the original Camel Trophy vehicles, which demonstrated their abilities going through extreme environments. Specifically, it gets off-road accessories and retro paint schemes. All of the enhancements are aimed at improving the capabilities of the vehicle to tackle difficult terrains.
Starting with the details, the Trophy Edition, based on the Defender 110, gets a snorkel mounted on the front fender and improves the SUV's water wading capacity. The number stands at 1.2 meters to keep the engine going even in dusty conditions. This is complemented by chunky all-terrain tires covering 20-inch gloss black alloy wheels. To go with the look, the SUV is finished in Deep Sandglow Yellow or Keswick Green colours.

The list of optional accessories for the SUV includes a roof rack, a black deployable roof ladder, a side-mounted gear carrier, front and rear classic mud flaps, and a raised air intake. This accessory pack is available in the UK for £4995 (around 5.79 lakh). Apart from these brand is providing an option of a paint protection film.
The Defender 110 Trophy Edition will make its public debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed between 10 to 13 July. It is already available for order now with a price tag of £89,810 (around Rs 1.04 crore).
Before this, Land Rover Classic produced 25 units of the original Defender that drew inspiration from the Camel Trophy, featuring graphics and modifications that closely reflect the expeditions.

JLR to begin production of cars at TaMo's new plant in Tamil Nadu by early 2026
Tata Motors Ltd-owned Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) will begin the production of its vehicles at its parent's new plant in Tamil Nadu by early 2026, a top company official said on Tuesday. JLR will look to begin assembly of completely knocked down (CKD) units at the new plant in Panapakkam in Tamil Nadu, which is expected to attract more than ₹ 9,000 crore investment from Tata Motors. 'We have all the CKD operations currently at Pune. Over a period of time, we will probably migrate it there (the TN facility),' PB Balaji, group chief financial officer at Tata Motors, told reporters in Mumbai. The plant, whose construction began in September 2024, will be used to make Tata Motors and JLR cars with an annual production capacity of more than 250,000 vehicles. The seller of luxury cars such as Defender and Range Rover first began assembling the completely knocked down units of its Land Rover Freelander 2 model in the country in May 2011 at Pune. In 2024, the company began the local assembly of its Range Rover and Range Rover Sport models at the Pune plant in a bid to expand its presence in the country and lower prices. While imports of completely built units of cars attract around 110% tariffs currently, the completely knocked down units of vehicles attract only 16.5% effective tariff rate. Acquired by Tata Motors in 2008 for $2.8 billion, JLR posted its highest ever retail sales numbers in the country in the last financial year. The company's sales jumped 40% to reach 6,183 cars, with the January-March quarter recording a 110% growth to 1,793 car sales. Its best-selling cars in the country include Defender, Range Rover and Range Rover sport. While it currently is not making the Defender models in the country, JLR's chief financial officer Richard Molyneux said during the company's last earnings call on 13 May that 'plans are in process to assemble the cars locally'. The bid to expand presence in India comes at a time when JLR is facing challenges in the global markets. During the investor day held on 16 June, JLR said that it is lowering its earnings before interest and tax margin guidance to 5-7% in FY26 from the earlier stated 10% due to the impact of US tariffs and slowdown in the Chinese market. Its profit after tax also fell 30% in FY25 to 1.8 billion pounds from 2.6 billion pounds in FY24. Meanwhile, the country's luxury car market has continued to grow, driven by demand for premium vehicles. In FY25, luxury car sales in the country touched an all-time high of 51,000 units. With its local assembly leading to price cuts of up to ₹ 44 lakh for its models last year, JLR managed to dethrone Audi India from the third position. The UK-based company is responsible for 71% of Tata Motors' overall revenue and 79% of its overall profits.
