Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) India on Tuesday said it has commenced production of the Defender 110 at its Pune facility to cater to its local customers, thereby reducing prices by up to Rs 34 lakh for the fully loaded top-end version. The company said it expects up to a 20 per cent uptick in sales volumes following the move.

With more than 9,000 Defenders on Indian roads already, and as our highest-selling model, it has moved beyond an SUV to become a cultura
