Consider waiting if:

• Starting price: Canadian pricing ranges from just over $80,000 CAD for a base Defender 90 S to around $183,000 CAD for an Octa.

If you're buying used today, the 2024 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
