Seen Through Glass unveils the Land Rover Defender OCTA, a beast of a machine that's like a Defender SVR on steroids, but with a new name that's bound to turn heads – Octor. This mean machine is all about off-road prowess, and the team takes it on a wild 500-mile ride in South Africa to put it through its paces. Starting in Cape Town, they marvel at the Defender's adaptability, equally at home in the urban jungle as it is in the actual jungle. Despite battling a pesky cold, they eagerly dive into the adventure, eager to see what this bad boy can do.
Cruising through Baines Kloof Pass, the team is left dumbfounded by the OCTA's performance on challenging terrains, thanks to its monstrous 4.4L twin-turbo V8 engine and cutting-edge 60 Dynamic suspension. Pit-stopping in SES for a caffeine fix, they appreciate the OCTA's prowess on twisty mountain roads, showcasing its agility and specially designed tires for off-road dominance. Transitioning to gravel roads, they activate OCTA mode, unleashing its full potential on loose surfaces, leaving them in awe of its power and control.
Reflecting on their journey, they highlight the OCTA's jaw-dropping 600 horsepower, emphasizing the sheer thrill and excitement it brings, even if most owners may never truly unleash its off-road capabilities. Despite its hefty price tag, the OCTA is hailed as the ultimate Defender, offering unmatched driving pleasure both on and off the beaten path. It's a machine that defies expectations, making every mile an unforgettable adventure, solidifying its status as the ultimate off-roading beast that's ready to conquer any terrain with style and power.
