#LAAutoShow: EXCLUSIVE! Check Out The Tech In The All-new Defender, Up Close And Personal!

As self-proclaimed technology geeks, if there's one thing we dig it's well thought-out tech. It's been really fun over the past 10 or so years watching auto manufacturers push their boundaries.

There's been some innovation but, frankly, it's still quite a bit behind what's being cooked up in today's Palo Alto labs.

Having said that, Agent 001 spent some time inside of the all-new Land Rover Defender. But rather than just get interior shots, he spent time running through the infotainment system and off-roading screens.

There's some pretty cool stuff happening here. Note how the screen shows which differential is working and how you can change if its locked/not locked or in auto mode. I love the wade sensing and slope assist. That may just come in handy if you're an off-road nut actually using your all-new Defender.

See for yourself, below!

They need to engineer it better if they do. The Element has a bizarre freeway hop defect. The car hobby horses front to back but also laterally from rear corner to front corner.

Its going to be the next must have vehicle on Rodeo Drive and Greenwich Ave for celebrities, trophy wives and soccer moms.

Pretty cool tech, but how tough is the underlying vehicle?

Interesting, but will it work, JLR has yet to master the "tech" in any of their other products, so how will this be different? If you like blank screens, engines that don't start or electronics that rarely work, then this is the SUV for you... if you want to get to your destination, then re-think JLR products and go buy something else... JLR is the new "Lucas Electronics, Prince of Darkness" as is expected on all British cars from the 1950's-1990's, they think it adds character... do you like paying to be stranded? If so your Chariot awaits you.
