Say Hello to a High-Performance Hero

Differences Between the 2025 Defender OCTA & Other Defender Models for Sale in Lakeland
Performance
As the most powerful Defender ever made, the Defender OCTA delivers decisive performance, thanks to a 626-horsepower 4.4-liter Twin Turbo mild-hybrid V8 engine that's rated for 553 pound-feet of torque. Base models for the rest of the Defender lineup produce under 300 horsepower, and Defender models with a supercharged V8 engine max out at 518 horsepower.
You can launch yourself forward from lights in Lakeland in the all-new Defender OCTA, as the performance model generates 108 additional horsepower. As you merge onto I-4 around Plant City, your Defender OCTA can get up to speed and reach 60 mph in 3.8 seconds, which is 1.6 seconds faster than other Defender models.
Design
Setting itself apart from the other Defender models, the OCTA carries a bold new design and has a more imposing stance. The diamond-like credentials are reflected through a new signature graphic. Improved approach and departure angles stem from the Defender OCTA model's redesigned bumpers. The Defender OCTA is an inch higher and is nearly three inches wider.
Inside, the Defender OCTA lets Valrico explorers sink into new Performance Seats with Body and Soul Seat technology. These seats are finished in new highly durable materials and colorways, and you can pick out your favorite option through your Defender dealer in Lakeland.
