Land Rover Discovery: Off-road capability with Comfort

When the first-generation Land Rover Discovery launched in 1989, it was a repackaged version of the old country workhorse that would look good on the driveway of any suburban residence. Now, in its fifth iteration the Discovery is even more comfortable around the city but hasn’t lost its country-travelling roots.

Earlier models had six-cylinder engines but the fifth Generation has returned to a four-cylinder configuration. Despite its reduction in cylinders, this represents the latest and most powerful variant of the Ingenium family of engines, alongside an uprated 254bhp 3.0-litre diesel V6 and a supercharged 3.0-litre petrol V6 which puts out a whopping 335bhp. In addition, sequential twin turbochargers pull as much as 237bhp from the direct-injected 2.0-litre diesel, although it will be the range-best 171g/km of CO2 and 43.5mpg combined economy that distinguish the engine for most buyers.

Every engine configuration is connected to a ZF eight-speed automatic gearbox as standard, and you can also specify a two-speed transfer box for low-range gearing. It is this which differentiates the Discovery from the single-speed Range Rover Sport. Apart from that one feature, the permanent, adaptive four-wheel drive system on all models is identical. Compared with the Discovery 4, Land Rover has slightly decreased ground clearance by 27mm, but wading depth has increased by 200mm, so you can take your Land Rover wading with ease.

While the outside has changed significantly, the interior is now a match for even the most sumptuous interiors out there, and the car can be equipped with the most up-to-date luxury features such as massage, climate-controlled Windsor leather seats, four-zone climate control and a chilled drinks compartment. In-car tech features include rear-seat entertainment screens, wi-fi, surround-view cameras and head-up display, and an infotainment system.

Land Rover are now amongst some of the most sought-after SUV’s around, and if your dream is to own one, we have a finance package that will suit you perfectly.
