Versatile and capable anywhere you go

The first member of the new Discovery family, features 5+2 seating in a footprint no larger than the existing five-seat premium SUVs.

The Discovery offers optimised volume, proportions and stance. Its design leadership combines with engineering integrity to result in a dynamic profile, the ultimate use of interior space and 5+2 seating configurability.

“Our challenge has been to combine premium design with exceptional versatility. The two attributes must work in harmony,” said Gerry McGovern, Land Rover design director and chief creative officer.

“I’m proud to say we’ve achieved that. Discovery’s dynamic design will resonate on an emotional level with consumers, and this vehicle is more versatile than any other premium compact SUV on the market.”

This spirit of adventure is reflected in Discovery’s interior, which has been designed with customers at its core. It features high-quality materials and a strong vertical centre-console graphic to reflect the premium design of the exterior, while the core Discovery value of versatility is evident everywhere.

Storage solutions are integrated into the cabin, and up to four 12V power points and six USB charging sockets can be specified for all three rows of seating, allowing multiple electronic devices to be charged simultaneously.

A host of innovations have allowed Discovery to introduce the versatility of 5+2 seating into the premium compact SUV class for the first time. An all-new multilink rear axle not only provides engaging driving dynamics but also ample and flexible cabin space behind the second row.

Coupled with its supple long-travel suspension, the Discovery is refined, comfortable, and rewarding to drive on-
road, while retaining the breadth of all-terrain capability for which Land Rover is world-renowned.

In fact, with approach, departure and breakover angles of 25, 31 and 21 degrees respectively, terrain response technology and the ability to wade to 600mm, the Discovery offers class-leading capability in all conditions. The new Discovery comes with a host of safety features – inclusive of a first-in-class pedestrian airbag, autonomous emergency braking and a state-of-the-art bodyshell featuring both ultrahigh-strength steel and lightweight aluminium.

The Discovery is equipped with a range of turbocharged petrol and diesel engines. Petrol derivatives use an all-alloy Si6 engine developing 250kW.

The Si6 TD6 3-litre diesel engine develops 190kW and 600Nm. Powerful, more efficient and economical than predecessors.

All engine derivatives are mated to an advanced eight-speed automatic transmission for peerless refinement, efficiency, driver engagement and off-road capability.
