Building on over a century of design innovations, the Mark IV uses only the most reliable, tested and proven powertrains from one of the world’s largest automotive manufacturers. Each Mark IV build comes standard with the ultra-reliable and proven 430HP 6.2 Liter LS3 Chevrolet Corvette engine from General Motors Performance. Looking for more? Upgrade to the 650HP 6.2 Liter Supercharged V8 LT4. Both power plants come with a 24 Month/50,000 mile warranty. Nothing comes close to the reliability and power of a Blackbridge Defender Mark IV.

Gone are old vacuum-assisted braking systems. Blackbridge has engineered and developed a hydraulically-assisted braking system to give the driver the ultimate in stopping confidence and performance. With all four corners equipped with up to 2000 PSI of clamping force, the Mark IV offers the ability to upgrade to higher performance braking options developed by the 425x Formula 1 Grand Prix-winning brake system manufacturer: Brembo. The Mark IV stops as well as it goes.

The Mark IV is built around one of the world’s most tested, mileage proven, off-roaded and awarded chassis on the road today. We respect the devoted engineers, designers and builders before us by utilizing a foundation built with a purpose and proven over millions of test miles. Mated to a ⅜” thick aluminum body designed specifically for our application, our Defender Mark IV delivers a classic vehicle experience with modern day reliability, comfort and performance both on and off-road.

Each and every Mark IV is numbered, hand-crafted and hand built. Our designs are luxurious yet utilitarian, beautiful yet functional. Every design feature has a purpose, and the craftsmen behind the Mark IV provide decades of experience to allow the driver to design, customize and build each vehicle to be the only one of its kind on the road today.

Each Blackbridge Mark IV cockpit is designed to provide an unparalleled driving experience. An all-digital dashboard interface is coupled with classic styling to create an environment that functions seamlessly while integrating modern day capabilities. An Apple iPad serves as the central interface that controls everything from heating and cooling to your optional reference grade digital audio system. Interior and exterior lighting are all powered by LED technology so you’ll never be left out in the dark.
