About this remap

Land-Rover Defender 3.0 D250 MHEV 250 hp Stage 1 — what changes

The Land-Rover Defender 3.0 D250 MHEV 250 hp (2020–) leaves the factory at 250 BHP and 570 Nm of torque. Manufacturers deliberately detune this engine to separate it from more expensive variants in the range — a Regal Tuning Stage 1 calibration safely recovers that headroom through the ECU alone: no hardware changes, no dyno risk, fully reversible.

Fuelling, boost pressure, ignition and torque limiters are optimised within the safe tolerances of the 3.0 D250 MHEV 250 hp powertrain (diesel). The result is 330 BHP and 720 Nm with factory smoothness, cold-start protection and emissions behaviour retained.
