When it comes to building engines, one philosophy is that the bigger, the better. Six cylinders? Why not eight? Ten? Twelve? Another philosophy is to work smarter, not harder. If you can get supercar specs out of six cylinders, why drag the car down with all that extra aluminum and cast iron?

If anyone has accused the Land Rover Defender of not being enough, we’re not aware of it. Sure, aftermarket support exists, but it would be nigh impossible to argue the Defender doesn’t go hard enough right out of the box. Unless, of course, you’re JLR’s Special Vehicles Operations, in which case you look at the Defender and go: what if we really tried to do it all somehow better? If so, you’d end up with the 2025 Land Rover Defender OCTA.
