Default 2026 Defender Orders

Hey! Is anyone else ordering a 2026? If so when do you take delivery?
I’m looking at mid October for mine (build date 8/15). I was going back and forth between Borasco Grey and Woolstone Green but ultimately went with Borasco. Hope I made the right choice!

110
X-Dynamic SE
Borasco Grey

I ordered one in June, held back a week since Pangea was discontinued and they showed off the new colors. I selected X- Dynamic SE in Woolstone green with satin wrap and added packages. 10/3 is the build start and 11/28 is delivery date. Our salesmen text a week ago that some orders were getting moved up. I'm excited but only a few months to go.

Borasco grey looks fantastic; I have Eiger. I am jealous I never checked the tow hitch receiver box!

Ordered a black 2026 X-Dynamic SE last month to replace our 2021 black Defender. Was told that delivery would be sometime in November. Just need to get it before 12/31 for tax purposes.

I had Eiger before alap and liked it, but I’m excited for Borasco as it’s more like Porsche’s Chalk. Definitely one of my favorite colors.

I’m considering a 2026 order, Borasco as well to stand out a bit since it’s a fresh Defender color (and appease the wife’s color preference)

Thinking a X-Dynamic , extended black, 20”, all terrain tires, clear sight, air suspension, tow hook and side steps. I have a young family that likes the outdoors so I plan to flex the capabilities a tad, but the Defender would also haul us around the streets of Denver.

Seems like there are many features I can code, anything else I should add to the list? 5 month build time these days?

Add a trailer hitch - even if you don’t tow it’s good for bike racks etc.

Looks like you have everything pretty much covered. I sort of regret not ordering the rear heated seats for $500 though...

I would say 4-5 months lead time right now. I finalized everything for mine in late June and should take delivery (west coast) in Mid October.

Good call on rear heated seats, car seats won’t be there forever
