I've ready a couple of comments that alluded to the Defender V8 riding significantly rougher due to the suspension tuning. I'm really wanting to get into the Defender with a v8 to replace my 2012 LR4 with a v8, but I don't want to lose the cushy feel of the LR4. Can anyway say whether or not se w/ V8 rides better than the standard V8 model?

Also, do the SE V8 and standard V8 have the same size brakes?

Thanks in advance!

 

Curious to hear peoples thoughts on this. In the US there is only the V8 or a Carpathian which is pretty much the same car with a mediocre wrap. The truck comes loaded. Is the SE offered in Europe?

 

Nope, changed for this year. You can get the SE V8 in the United States.

 

There’s no SE to build on the site? I can’t imagine what an SE would be the standard V8 comes completely loaded.

 

I have the 2024 SE with the air suspension. No compiaint about the ride quality on or off road. Much better ride than our Audi Q8.

 

Is yours the V8?

 

Yes it is.

 

I have a 2023.5 V8. One of the most comfortable riding cars I have ever owned. First car with airbags I've owned. I'm sold on them after this car.

 

Yes there is. It is the P500 and comes with a little less horsepower than the V8/V8 Carpathian models.

 

Oh. I didnt know they were calling that SE and its not available in the 90 only the bigger trucks. I was hoping the lower HP would make it eligible for the roof rack but no dice. Why would anyone pick this truck over the standard V8?
