Assessment
The Land Rover Defender D240 (2.0D) 240hp is a 2.0L turbocharged diesel engine producing 240 BHP and 430 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 260 BHP and 550 Nm — a gain of around 20 BHP (8%) and 120 Nm (28%).
This engine has moderate remap suitability, with gains weighted towards torque — you will notice the difference most strongly in mid-range pulling power and in-gear acceleration. The tuning headroom is classified as moderate, based on the percentage gain available from the factory output.
From a technical perspective, the transmission is many variants use zf 8-speed automatic (where fitted). at this torque level, transmission and driveline servicing history becomes especially important..
Considerations: High tuned torque: check transmission torque capacity and service history.. Large torque increase: drivetrain condition (clutch/gearbox) becomes more important at this level.
Fuel economy note: possible improvement with conservative driving.
All figures shown are typical estimates based on aggregated Stage 1 data for this engine variant. Actual results depend on vehicle condition, mileage, and the chosen tuning method. We recommend discussing your specific vehicle with a qualified remap professional.
