Jaguar Land Rover delayed the next-generation Defender by roughly two years, moving into the 2030s.

JLR is prioritizing Range Rover Electric.
Jaguar Land Rover has not given a firm launch date for a fully electric Defender, and it has not officially said the next-generation model is locked into the 2030s. Company updates instead stress keeping gasoline, diesel, and hybrid engines available while other electric sport-utility vehicles move ahead, with timing chatter around Defender framed as a delay in reports and investor coverage rather than a dated change on the record, including a report from The Times.
