The body is the first thing you notice. A raised ride height, a wider track and 838mm tyres, the largest ever fitted to a Defender, give OCTA a footprint the standard 110 does not have. Wading depth rises to a full metre. Two versions are offered in New Zealand: OCTA on 22-inch gloss black wheels, and OCTA Black with 20-inch wheels and Narvik Black paint set off by gloss black exterior details.
Inside, 14-way heated and cooled Performance Seats are standard, trimmed in semi-aniline leather, or semi-aniline leather with Kvadrat textile on OCTA Black. Body and Soul Seat technology turns the Meridian audio into something you feel through the seatback. A sliding panoramic roof, Matrix LED headlights and Pivi Pro are included, and a dedicated OCTA Mode switches the vehicle into its off-road performance setting, with an ABS calibration developed for loose gravel.
The OCTA cabin keeps the standard Defender’s toughness and adds the seats, materials and controls that fast off-road driving demands.
The Defender OCTA is the highest-performance Defender, based on the 110. It has a 4.4 litre twin-turbo V8 producing 467kW and 750Nm, enough for 0 to 100km/h in four seconds, and a 6D Dynamics suspension system that keeps the body level on rough ground and at speed.
OCTA sits above the rest of the Defender range because it adds the V8 engine, 6D Dynamics suspension, Performance Seats and a long standard equipment list that includes a sliding panoramic roof and Meridian Surround Sound. The final figure depends on whether you choose OCTA or OCTA Black and on the options you add, so contact our team for a current price.
OCTA rides on 22-inch gloss black wheels and has semi-aniline leather seats. OCTA Black has 20-inch wheels, Narvik Black paint with gloss black exterior details, and semi-aniline leather combined with Kvadrat textile. Both have 14-way heated and cooled Performance Seats, Body and Soul Seat technology and a sliding panoramic roof.
Very. OCTA stands higher and wider than a standard Defender, runs 838mm tyres, the largest ever fitted to a Defender, and has a wading depth of a full metre. A dedicated OCTA Mode switches the vehicle into its off-road performance setting, with an ABS calibration developed for loose gravel.
