Mileage

Friday, 28 March 2025 10:30 AM When it comes to mileage, the Land Rover Defender Octa is not designed for fuel efficiency but for raw power and performance. Given its massive 4.4-litre V8 engine, the fuel economy is expected to be on the lower side. While exact mileage figures are not provided, it is clear that running costs will be higher due to the vehicles large engine and high-performance capabilities. However, for buyers in this segment, the focus is often more on the vehicles capabilities and luxury rather than fuel efficiency.
