First drive review: the Twisted T90 Electric electromod Defender is eye-wateringly expensive and unlike any other EV you might have driven, but that it’s still so much like an authentic ‘Landy’ is the core of its appeal
And the firm’s latest introduction is likely to bring a whole new kind of buyer through the door. That’s because, as an alternative to one of the company’s top-level Chevy V8- or Ford 2.3-litre Ecoboost-powered models , you can now have a Twisted Defender ‘electromod’. In a vehicle like a Defender, electric power may not be an instinctive fit and the Twisted management realises that only a minority of its customers, for now at least, will want one.
The rest of the car’s body, chassis, suspension and interior are upgraded to Twisted’s familiar and alluringly high standard - and in the T90 truck cab that we tested, the result was very smart indeed. Climbing up and getting comfortable in any Defender remains a bit of an undertaking. Even after Twisted’s cabin modifications and with its sports seats, you sit with limited room at the controls, squeezed in close to the driver’s door.
