Standard and optional feature highlights include: The Discovery seats seven people in its three rows.

All-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic are standard across the range. Two engine choices are available depending on the trim level you pick: a turbocharged four-cylinder engine that makes 296 horsepower and a turbocharged inline six-cylinder with a mild hybrid system that's good for 355 hp. Here's our list: 1) The haptic touch climate panel requires too much of your attention to use while driving 2) The armrest snaps shut with the speed of a guillotine 3) It's shockingly difficult to operate the upper glovebox 4) There's also no quick release for moving the second row forward, so third-row passengers are almost entirely dependent on someone else to help them exit 5) The driver's seat sits up way too high, giving the Discovery an almost bus-like driving position 6) The second and third rows don't have enough legroom for a vehicle in this class and 7) The large rear headrests are huge obstructions for looking out the back of the vehicle. Land Rover really needs to hire some people from Toyota and Honda for the next Discovery in hopes of coming up with better controls and ergonomics. Front and side visibility is also quite good.īut … there are a lot of buts. Also, the climate system is neat in that you can control fan temperature, fan speed and seat heating/ventilation with a single knob. How’s the interior? We'll start by saying that the new infotainment system is much easier to use than the Discovery's previous interface.
