Questions About 2021 Land Rover Defender 90’s Transmission

  • What can I tow in a Land Rover? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Defender 90’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
