Land Rover Defender Extreme Kit

Up to +50% power & torque

The Defender Extreme project was developed as a complete specialist package for customers requiring greater power and torque reserves in difficult terrain. It combined STEINBAUER engine electronics with additional vehicle-specific hardware development.

What this project demonstrates

Custom engineering built around the application.

These historic projects show the engineering capability behind the standard STEINBAUER product range and the ability to develop specialist solutions where a normal catalogue application is not enough.

Off-road focusThe project was aimed at producing stronger usable torque and performance for demanding off-road conditions.

Integrated developmentElectronic and mechanical elements were developed as one vehicle-specific package.

What it demonstratesSTEINBAUER engineering can extend beyond electronics into complete specialist performance solutions.
