Official: Land Rover Defender concepts turn red for New Delhi [w/video]

Filed under: Concept Cars , SUV , Land Rover , India , Off-Road Land Rover took to the Delhi Auto Expo with a pair of Defender Concepts , demonstrating a few design possibilities Land Rover could pursue with the next-generation SUV. The company says it intends to launch the vehicle by 2015, which means the automaker has its work cut out for it if it plans to meet that deadline. The concepts feature many of the same attributes that made the original Defender and off-road icon, including dramatically short overhangs front and rear and a near vertical wind screen for increased visibility. This isn’t the first time we’ve seen the pair of Defenders, though.
