Thanks for this review. I have decided on a p400e cancelled order that I am collecting next week. You have covered aspects of the vehicle that nobody else seems to - such as the jack. Really helpful.

This is exactly what the p400e needed - really thank you for the vids on this

Thanks for your time, superb insight to this tech and this vehicle.

Honest review, thank you!

Thanks for the real review!

I ordered a P400e HSE at the end of September and was told a year lead time, I then got a call on 19th December to say it should be delivered during the first week of March! I hope you've had the same call! Thanks for the Video, very excited for it's arrival.

Hi just picked mine up, and you are absolutely right ,they still don’t tell about the rubbish boot space, wish I had kept my 3ltr diesel se. Wish I had done some more home work. They are still having issues with supplies, it came without mud flaps,tow bar,sidesteps, and scuff plate,wheel arch protectors. Good video thanks .

Thanks for your honest review 👍 This car with the PHEV engine is very popular in my country, the Netherlands. Because we pay taxes on the amount of CO2 output. On paper (!), this engine has a CO2 output of 57 g/km, which is very low compared to the diesel or petrol. So this is the most affordable Defender with prices starting at 85.000 euro. What I do not like , is the heavy weight of 2600 kgs.. Because we also pay more tax for a heavy car.... An Ineos Grenadier, for example, weights above 2700 kgs, and that car even has no batterypack and EV kit. High CO2 output and heavy weight result in sky-high taxes, no chance in the Netherlands. So the Defender is still the best choice around here. I would like smaller weelsize with steel rims though. Every real 4x4 fan does not want large wheels with low profile tires ! I am still considering buying this car, but one has to wait a year for delivery. In such a year much can happen: maybe the all electric Defender gets ready, or Toyota will come with an Lancruiser PHEV or EV, etc. etc. Please keep us informed about all the issues you have with the Defender ! Thanks ! Greetz from the Netherlands 🙋‍♂️

Good review, like to see one on your thoughts just driving about, parking in town the supermarket and all that with wheel on back. Probably going to order one soon, close to my ideal car.

Wonder when they will release a longer range PHEV model?

Very useful summary: ref pre-conditioning and software etc... - It's a problem on "most" manufacturers except Tesla. The command doesn't go directly to the car from APP it goes to a vendor cloud service first. Everyone still catching up with Tesla

Great review. For day to day use, which one do you use more? This one or the Tesla? Curious how they compare. And also how about for long trips?

Thanks for the useful info Ron the jack. Is the fuel tank still 90ltr as on the non PHEV version?

@Rory Atkins Thanks for your very helpful video especially the 'low down' on the boot. You mentioned the vehicle kicks over to full petrol mode after about 50 miles in Hybrid usage.There may be some battery still available from reserves or regeneration but at some point you are presumably totally reliant on the power and torque of the 2L combustion engine? Has this been an issue when towing for longer journeys (you mentioned was one of your reasons for purchase)? Thanks

Hi Rory, had the same storage issues with a Mercedes GLE Hybrid too. Battery range 40miles vs advertised 60. If the Tesla does 3 to 4 miles per kwh what is your Defender doing. The mercedes was about 1.3 miles per kwh. And all that extra weight of battery and electric motor takes away potential efficiency. For all the quirks, I noted the slow screen, the potential wet rear seats and lack of storage and not wanting to off road I can't see why you went back in technology time after enthusing about the model Y and didn't get another. Maybe towing ability.... Oh and I love my Model Y too, only way to go

Pls post more videos about this vehicle

Question, there’s an option for a remote conditioning fob when ordering, but doesn’t this function operate through the app anyway?

Great review, did you order another p400e?

A little late for me, mines here next week

Is this carpathian grey?

I've got one of these, I think the placement of the jack is rubbish. Rest I agree with!

The compromise of space hardly seems worth the 19miles!
