Default 2024 mid year refresh?

Hi all!

Any sense of the odds of mid-2024 changes? In particular, being able to get the larger screen on more models as an option.

Thanks!

If history repeats your requested odds are not good. JLR likes to differentiate the upper models with the larger screen.

I think the 11" screen is still just a constraint issue. The larger screen was available by special request on ordered '23.5 models.

Zl1Ragtop,
Please, tell us more about your 23.5 “Special request process”. Did you actually use this process or did you just hear about this process?

l read somewhere that Land Rover are planning to get rid of the buttons on the centre console and integrate functionality into the media screen

Apparently it's "what customers want"

That's interesting, my dealer didn't mention that but I can ask. It seems like an oversight given the overall trend.

It looks like the 130 get the bigger screen? (I'm looking at 110 x-dynamic).

I used the process to request the smaller screen, but the larger was available when I ordered in June of 2022.

my 23.5 S has the bigger screen. When building your defender, you used to be able to select the larger screen on the lower models, but some were shipping with them, and some without despite the request.

My dealer was able to request the 11" screen through the LR rep when we placed our order last December. So yes, our 23.5 110SE has the larger screen.
