The Project Kahn Designs team has created a new Defender model that is equally at home on rough terrain and on the boulevard with its new Concept 17 Harris Tweed enhancements. The rugged SUV now features a host of luxury modifications, such as new Range Rover wheels for better traction, upgraded bodywork that creates a more aggressive and rugged appearance, and a newly designed interior with special Harris Tweed accents. everywhere.
The new Project Kahn Defender Concept 17 with its diesel engine may not be a performance monster on the track, but it’s a pretty capable off-roader, thanks in part to its new Range Rover wheels. Called Defend 1983 wheels, the new wheels are made from a lightweight aluminum alloy and are designed to handle the rough terrain the SUV can traverse while providing unique styling to match the exterior design. Range Rover wheels can be custom painted and will also fit standard Land Rover or Range Rover center caps for a clean look.
The exterior has also received a number of new options that give the SUV a more dynamic and luxurious appearance. The front of the Defender Concept 17 Harris Tweed Edition features a new stainless steel grille with company branding etched into the metal, new vented LED headlights, and stainless steel headlight guards that mirror the design of the front grille. Along each side are new badging emblems used on the hood and fenders, and a set of front and rear wheel arch extensions that make room for the Range Rover’s wider wheels and meatier tires. . The rear sports a new spare wheel cover with the company logo, a new bumper insert and badges on the tailgate.
The most exciting aspect of the new Defender Concept 17 Harris Tweed Edition is the use of special Harris Tweed fabric on the seats and other areas of the interior. The fabric is the only one in the world that is governed by a law passed by the British Parliament and is handmade in a specific part of Scotland. The new fabric was installed as inserts on all sports seats with black nappa leather, red stitching and red accents. The armrest between driver and passenger also carries the nappa leather and red stitching, along with the dashboard, binnacle, glove box and door card inserts. Both the headliner and sun visors feature black Nappa leather and special Harris Tweed inserts to match the four upgraded seats. A new red Churchill time clock, red tachometer and machined aluminum foot pedals add a touch of style.
