ANCAP Safety Report (PDF)

The Land Rover Defender was introduced in Australia and New Zealand in August 2020. This ANCAP safety rating applies to all 110 variants, with the exception of V8 petrol variants. A separate ANCAP safety rating applies to 110 Hard Top variants.

Dual frontal, side chest-protecting for the first row and side head-protecting (curtain) airbags for both the first, second and optional third row are standard.

Autonomous emergency braking (Car-to-Car, Vulnerable Road User and Junction Assist) as well as a lane support system with lane keep assist (LKA), lane departure warning (LDW) and emergency lane keeping (ELK), and an advanced speed assistance system (SAS) are standard on all variants.

A full list of safety features and technologies can be viewed within the Technical Report (see download link).

NOTE: There are no top tether anchorages for child restraints in the optional third row of seats. This vehicle is therefore not suitable for transporting young children in the optional third row.
