The Discovery Sport is versatile by design and ready for family adventures, even more so now that it is available as a plug in electric hybrid model. Jaguar Land Rover Limited bring you versatility, style, practicality, and sustainability in one iconic model.
Without a doubt the Discover Sport is the world’s most versatile and capable 5 + 2 SUV. The exterior of this new model carries familiar design cues such, including the clamshell bonnet, rising beltline, and tapered roof.
However, the dimensions have been adjusted to project a more eye-catching visual with new signature LED headlamps at the front and rear, alongside a new front grille and bumpers. It is beneath the new Land Rover Discovery's robust skin where most of the work has been executed.
The Land Rover Discover 2019 model introduces fresh new technology, improved aesthetics and most importantly more efficient, hybrid engines to Land Rover’s class leading family SUV.
The interior of the new Land Rover Discovery Sport is much bigger, with increased small item stowage and a flexible load space (up to 1,794-litres) implying that it is the perfect family SUV.
The interior of the new Discover Sport has been completely transformed, delivering superior interior space, heightened comfort and the latest generation InControl Touch Pro infotainment.
The new Land Rover Discovery Sport Hybrid comes brimming with the finest specification options including Touch Pro infotainment with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless charging, and 4G WiFi hotspot to keep you and your family connected, informed and entertained on every journey.
There's also a wealth of excellent safety and driver assistance features on the production vehicle which have also contributed to its 5 star safety rating from Euro NCAP. These include emergency braking, lane keep assist, traffic sign recognition, an adaptive speed limiter, adaptive cruise control, and driver condition monitoring.
Discovery Sport plug in hybrid models offer a 1.5 litre petrol engine alongside a 15kWh battery for a total power output of 309HP.
The electric motor provides instant torque to the wheels when you press down on the accelerator which then boosts fuel economy and the lithium ion battery is designed to outlast the vehicle itself and provide thousands of miles of journeys.
Lifting your foot off the accelerator tells the regenerative braking system to kick in which comfortably slows the vehicle down and converts any generated power back into power that the battery can use.
The range figures for the all electric range are estimated at up to 38 miles combined, making it ideal for the school run or a short commute with no CO2 emissions. Fuel economy figures from official manufacturer's tests from Land Rover for the combined mpg of the Discovery Sport Hybrid place it at up to 192.2, although real world figures will all vary depending on your driving style and the conditions.
