"My brand-new Land Rover Defender 130 doesn’t have enough road presence," said many owners. Urban Automotive, a UK-based car styling studio, decided to help. They released a new styling package for the famous SUV.
Urban Widetrack Package for the Defender 130
For £15,549 (around $19,700), Urban offers the Widetrack package, which adds many stylish upgrades to the Defender 130.
Originally made for rough adventures and off-road trips, the Defender has slowly moved towards a more stylish, city-friendly design. It now leans more towards sleek looks and luxury than rugged off-road skills.
Urban's Widetrack package gives the Defender 130 a fresh, powerful look. Key upgrades include:
- Double high-power LED light pods on the roof (above the windshield)
- Square lower LED Daytime Running Lamps (DRLs)
- A rear roof spoiler
- Big 22-inch alloy wheels
You can watch the video below for a cinematic look at the makeover.

Urban already offers different wheel designs, such as the Sawblade, Explorer, and Competition. Now, they introduce the new Ballistic WX4 rims.
Prices:
- A set of four WX4 wheels (no tires, no pressure sensors): £2,520 ($3,200)
