The new Defender 110 Trophy Edition marks the return of the Defender to global adventure, with a vehicle specced specifically for real-world adventures. The Trophy Edition is launched alongside the new Defender Trophy Adventure Race – a global initiative inspired by iconic Trophy and Challenge events of the past. The tough and durable Trophy Edition will be offered in two heritage-inspired colours: Deep Sandglow Yellow and Keswick Green, symbolising the adventurous spirit of a new generation.
Deep Sandglow Yellow - Inspired by the color of past challenges
The new Defender 110 Trophy Edition is a bold statement of the brand’s return to international off-road competition. This special edition is equipped with a range of unique accessories to serve the adventure, making the Defender the ideal companion for every journey.
Inspired by past Trophy and Challenge tournaments, the new Defender Trophy continues the legacy with three rounds of intense training and competition. This is not only a challenging journey but also a meaningful mission for those who dare to face the impossible and have a passion for conservation around the world.
The choice of explorers and expedition leaders for decades, Defender continues to inspire more than 50 countries to take up the challenge. The best entrants will advance to the global finals in Africa in 2026, in collaboration with Defender’s conservation partner Tusk.
The winners will have the opportunity of a lifetime: to work together on a unique mission to create a positive and lasting legacy for the communities and environments where they visit.
“The spirit of adventure and community has always been at the core of Defender’s DNA – something that has been with the brand since 1948,” said Mark Cameron, Managing Director, Defender. “The new global adventure challenge will unite nations through extreme off-road journeys, physical challenges and tactical scenarios – all for a greater cause.”
New Legend: Defender 110 Trophy Edition
Every great journey requires a machine to match. The Defender 110 Trophy Edition embodies the spirit of exploration for a new generation, followed by millions of spectators around the world.
The new Defender 110 Trophy Edition marks the introduction of two new heritage-inspired colours, representing the spirit of adventure to a new generation of enthusiasts.
Keswick Green - A legendary Defender colour reborn
Available in just two exclusive colours, Deep Sandglow Yellow or Keswick Green, the new Trophy Edition features a contrasting gloss black finish on the bonnet, lower bodywork, brake calipers and rear recovery hooks. Deep Sandglow Yellow is a modern interpretation of the same colour used by Defenders in international Trophy events, while Keswick Green pays tribute to the Defender’s exploration of the UK countryside. Both colours can be finished with an optional Matte Protective Film, providing an extra layer of protection to the bodywork, providing added peace of mind and durability for those venturing off the beaten track.
In terms of specifications, the car is set up to be adventure-ready, including new gloss black 20-inch alloy wheels with rugged All-Terrain Tires for reliable grip on any surface, dark-coloured rear scuff plates and gloss black wheel arch protectors, along with black front lower fairings.
Trophy logos on the bonnet, C-pillar and rear of the car add a distinctive touch to this special edition. The Ebony Windsor leather interior adds a luxurious yet durable feel, with illuminated 'Trophy'-engraved treadplates and a body-coloured dashboard crossbar – complete with exclusive laser-etched detailing.
Suggested accessory list for expeditions
For optimal off-road capability, the Defender 110 Trophy Edition can be equipped with optional accessories such as: Expedition roof racks for extended storage space; Black folding side ladders for easier access to high-altitude luggage; Gloss Black side storage boxes - ideal for storing wet, muddy or sandy items; classic front and rear mudguards; and raised air intakes for more effective dust filtration in harsh off-road conditions.
