Land Rover Discovery Sport

5+2 Seating

Discovery Sport offers exemplary levels of comfort and outstanding versatility. The second row is extremely spacious and flexible with the seats able to slide back and forth by 160mm for greater loadspace or comfort.

The third row, with its simple, single-handed 50:50 deployment, has been cleverly incorporated to avoid any compromises to the vehicle’s exterior design, whilst maintaining passenger comfort.

By folding down the third row, a flat loadspace is available for whenever you need it. So wherever you’re seated, or whatever you want to carry, you can relax.

Loadspace Capacity

Deceptively roomy. Cleverly configured. Discovery Sport has been designed and engineered to meet any challenge.

The vehicle has the option of flexible seating which, when stored flat, gives a load floor that is as long as a Range Rover and a maximum loadspace of 1,698 litres.

Even whilst carrying five passengers, the loadspace is still an impressive 981 litres. Discovery Sport can handle bulkier loads with consummate ease when the second and third rows are folded flat. Such flexibility helps make carrying family, friends and all their gear that much easier.

Driving Technology

Terrain Response

Land Rover has always been synonymous with capability and the Discovery Sport lives up to even the most demanding expectations. Confident and responsive, the drive is further enhanced by a generous wheel articulation and innovative off-road technologies such as
Terrain Response.

This feature is standard on all engines and adapts to the responses of the vehicle’s engine, transmission, differentials and chassis systems to maximise driveability, comfort and traction.

There are four standard Terrain Response settings: General Driving, Grass/Gravel/Snow, Mud & Ruts and Sand, so the vehicle feels sure-footed no matter what the terrain or weather conditions.

An optional fifth setting, Adaptive Dynamics, is available, which tunes the suspension to deliver even tighter body control with flatter handling and sharper responses.
 

All Terrain Progress Control

All Terrain Progress Control (ATPC) is a state-of-the-art new system that enables drivers to set and maintain a steady speed in challenging conditions. The system is an optional extra on the TD4 180hp engine with automatic transmission.

Operating like a cruise control system, it functions at very low speeds between 1mph and 18mph, helping the driver to maintain full concentration on steering and finding a path through obstacles.

In addition, the system enables the vehicle to pull away smoothly and easily, even on tricky low-friction surfaces like ice, snow or wet grass.

Developed by Land Rover’s industry-leading all-terrain specialists, it works seamlessly alongside the standard Terrain Response, 4-Wheel-Drive (4WD) traction and braking systems.

Once ATPC is activated, the standard steering wheel +/- cruise control buttons are used to set the speed. Brake and accelerator pedals can still override the chosen settings.
 

Hill Descent Contol

Land Rover’s patented Hill Descent Control (HDC) is a standard feature on all 4-Wheel-Drive (4WD) vehicles. It assists the driver with controlled descents of difficult slopes by maintaining a constant speed and applying braking separately to each wheel. Hill Start Assist (HSA) ensures the vehicle doesn’t roll backwards as it pulls away on an incline.
The vehicle also utilises Gradient Release Control (GRC) which is designed to prevent the vehicle accelerating too quickly on a steep incline when the driver releases the brake.
 

Wade Sensing

With a wading depth of up to 600mm, whether crossing streams, fords or flooded areas, the optional Wade Sensing feature can prove invaluable. Unique to Land Rover, sensors located in the door mirrors give the driver pictorial real-time information about the water’s depth in relation to the vehicle, as well as maximum wading capability via the Touchscreen.
 

Adaptive Dynamics

Optional Adaptive Dynamics with advanced MagneRideTM monitors vehicle movements at least 1,000 times per second, reacting to driver or road inputs instantaneously to give greater control and minimise body lean, providing a balanced, flat ride. Available on the TD4 180hp engine (not available on SE and SE Tech), the system will even sense off-road conditions and optimise the advanced MagneRide™ damper settings accordingly, delivering the perfect balance of agile handling and a supple, controlled ride.

Driving Aids
 

Command Driving Position

The Command Driving Position in Discovery Sport ensures a greater view of the road ahead so all terrains can be tackled with confidence.
 

Head-Up Display

Head-up Display is a technology option, available as part of the Head-up Display Pack, that presents key vehicle data such as vehicle speed, gear position and navigation directions on the windscreen (requires InControl Touch or InControl Touch Pro Navigation), without the need for the driver to take their eyes off the road.

This innovative laser system is more robust against issues such as ‘washout’ – the effect that the glare from sunlight has on inferior LED-based systems. The feature can be turned on and off dependent upon driver preference.
 

Traffic Sign Recognition

Traffic Sign Recognition keeps you fully informed by displaying particular traffic signs in the instrument cluster where they can easily be seen, and as part of Head-up Display when fitted. The system detects speed limit signs (including variable overhead speed signs) and traffic signs with extra information, such as reduced speeds for wet roads.
 

Lane Keep Assist and Driver Condition Monitor

Lane Keep Assist detects when your vehicle is unintentionally drifting out of your
lane and gently steers you back. Driver Condition Monitor detects if you’re starting
to feel drowsy and gives you an early warning when you need to take a break.
 

Adaptive Cruise Control with Queue Assist

When you’re cruising on the motorway or travelling in slow-moving traffic, this system will keep your vehicle a safe distance from the one in front should it slow or stop. When the vehicle speeds up again, so does Discovery Sport.
 

Autonomous Emergency Braking

If a potential collision is detected, this system displays a forward collision warning, giving you time to take action. If a collision is still anticipated and you have taken no action, this system will apply the brakes to help reduce the severity of the possible impact.
 

Blind Spot Monitor with Reverse Traffic Detection

Blind Spot Monitor alerts you to vehicles which are in or are quickly approaching your blind spot through a small warning light in the corresponding door mirror. Reverse Traffic Detection warns you of hazards approaching from either side of your vehicle, through both audible and visual warnings so you know what’s behind you even when the view is obstructed.
 

Park Assist - Parallel Park, Parking Exit and Perpendicular Park

The Park Assist system makes parallel and perpendicular parking easier than ever by steering your vehicle into a suitable space. You just have to select the appropriate gear and control the vehicle’s speed with the brake and accelerator pedals. Park Assist will also steer you out of a space, taking all of the stress out of parking. Graphics and notifications guide you through the manoeuvres.
 

Surround Camera System

Giving a 360° exterior view via the Touchscreen, this helps with various manoeuvres from parking by a kerb, to getting in and out of tight spaces and junctions.
 

Rear View Camera

To make parking in tight spots simpler, static lines to represent the vehicles outer perimeter and predicted path are superimposed on the rearward image displayed on your Touchscreen.

* Features and their availability may differ by vehicle specification.

Towing Aids

With a towing capacity of up to 2,500kg (available when selected with 2,500kg Heavy Duty Tow Bar Packs), and by incorporating tailored technologies, Discovery Sport can handle the most demanding of tasks.
 

Electrically Deployable Tow Bar

The optional electrically deployable tow bar is stowed discreetly behind the bumper, providing a clean and attractive finish.

Detachable Tow Bar

Convenient and easy to use, the optional detachable tow bar maintains the vehicle’s exterior design when removed or when stowed.
 

Rear View Camera

Providing improved visibility when reversing, the Rear View Camera is a valuable parking aid and offers help when hitching a trailer.

Available as standard on HSE, HSE Black, HSE Luxury and HSE Dynamic Lux and as an option on SE and SE Tech models.

Tow Hitch Assist makes coupling a trailer to the vehicle much easier by helping you visualise the hitching process; it displays the predicted path of the vehicle towards the tow bar on the Touchscreen. Standard with Rear View Camera.

Trailer Stability Assist

Trailer Stability Assist monitors the vehicle to detect movements in the trailer and then uses selective braking to help correct potentially hazardous situations.

Surround Camera System

As part of the Surround Camera System, the Tow Assist feature helps with reversing by predicting the trailer‘s direction. You can even input your trailer’s width for precise guidelines displayed on the Touchscreen.
