I have the '26 110 V8 and I'm very happy with it. Feels solid, the suspension is great. I also have a '25 L460 which drives a lot softer, I end up driving the Defender more than the RR.

 

I like the overall simplicity of the P300, but when I rented a Defender almost identical to my own on Turo with a P300, I found it to be lacking in the get up and go department. While the P400 may have little issues (and in the grand scheme of things - they are little) its definitely the smallest engine I'd get in the truck.

 

Coming from a tuned Audi SQ5, which was ~450 hp & 1,000+ lbs lighter, I am still trying to adjust to the slower acceleration of my 130 with the P400. However, for it's size I would say the P400 does just fine. We did purchase the extended 5 year / 100k warranty through the dealership for piece of mind since we bought it used. I read up on some of the issues going in beforehand.

If we could have swung it, we would have gone with a V8 since more power is always better.

 

Sounds like everyone is pleased with whatever motor they have. The turbo 4 might be what I start my search with. Haven’t driven one yet but if I can find a white one with steel wheels I will at the very least go take a look at it.

 

Another vote for the P300. And if you do end up test driving or living with it in city/hilly/stop and go traffic, tipping the gear lever to S for sport gives it a little added punch and (more importantly) holds onto lower gears for longer for better acceleration, and less braking.

 

Second that for sport mode driving on the P300. You can also have OEMactivations.com enable "Dynamic Mode" on the P300 plus other goodies.

 

I have a 2020 110X at 33000 miles no problems or issues. the occasional low battery warning start your engine disappeared after I used a battery tender when it is not in use. then a long 2000 mile round trip drive fixed it. the lane keep assist actually helped in the last 130 miles of the trip to the Ritz Carlton. I can only remember the last 5 miles to the hotel.
