Land Rover Defender

The Defender 110 keeps its boxy silhouette honest: under the aluminium skin sits a 395 hp mild-hybrid straight-six, and air suspension that reads broken tarmac like braille. The cabin is exposed-bolt practical yet surprisingly quiet at speed, and the upright glass gives you the kind of view mountain roads deserve.

Rent a Land Rover Defender in Georgia when the itinerary ignores asphalt — the Tusheti road, or the river fords near Mestia. Autohub delivers it anywhere in Tbilisi with full insurance included, so the only thing left to plan is how far past the pavement you want to go. Book it before the mountains do.

Rent the Land Rover Defender for Georgia's High Routes

The road to Ushguli was never really a road — gravel shelves, river fords, weather that changes by the switchback. Svaneti, Tusheti, the upper Truso valley: Georgia keeps its most memorable places behind surfaces most rentals will not touch, and the Defender exists precisely for them. A 3.0-litre mild-hybrid straight-six sends 395 hp through permanent all-wheel drive; 0–100 km/h in 5.7 seconds matters less out here than clearance and the calm competence of the chassis on broken ground.

On tarmac it is no penalty either — five seats, a quiet motorway gait for the Tbilisi to Batumi run, and a cabin that shrugs off muddy boots.
