The verdict

A convertible against an SUV - a 3.9L 8-cylinder in the Ferrari Portofino, a 3.0L 6-cylinder in the Land Rover Defender. The Ferrari Portofino is the quicker car of the two - 600 HP against 400 HP, and 0-100 km/h in 3.5s against 6.1s. The Ferrari Portofino carries on to 320 km/h, 129 km/h clear of the Land Rover Defender. So it splits: take the Ferrari Portofino for pace, the Land Rover Defender for the 5 seats it carries.
