Defender with Alpine windows

The Land Rover Defender is packed with features, but this video highlights a couple of unique design touches that elevate the passenger experience. First up is the stadium seating, which places the rear seats a bit higher than the front ones to give everyone a great view ahead.

The real star of the show, though, is the roof windows. While most people in North America call them alpine windows, the presenter shares a fun personal memory from growing up in Kenya, where they were known as safari windows, perfect for looking out for leopards, snakes, and giraffes in the trees. It is a neat look at how the modern Defender stays true to its vintage heritage while adding some great storytelling to the drive.
