Lee Morrison, stunt coordinator, No Time To Die, said: “We pushed the Defender further than we believed possible to generate the maximum excitement, and to give fans an insight into the uncompromising challenge of producing an incredible chase sequence which you can look forward to seeing in "No Time To Die".

Moreover, Nick Collins, Land Rover Defender vehicle director said “We developed a new test standard for Defender, the most challenging we’ve ever had and unique to this vehicle. Physical strength and durability are measured by a number of different tests including a bridge jump test which gave us the confidence to deliver what the stunt team needed to create for No Time To Die, with no modifications to the body structure except the installation of a roll cage.”

It's quite hard to believe that the stock Defender is performing so well. Nick Collins says that no customization has been done to the body of the SUV except the addition of a roll cage.
