The first production Discovery Sport has rolled off Land Rover’s production line in Halewood, Liverpool.
The world’s most versatile and capable premium compact SUV, the Discovery Sport, is the first of the new Discovery family. It features 5+2 seating in a footprint no larger than existing five-seat premium SUVs, as well as Land Rover’s class-leading capability. The launch marks another significant milestone in Jaguar Land Rover’s product offensive which will see the company deliver 50 significant product actions over the next five years.

The Discovery Sport will go on sale in 2015, alongside the existing seven-seat Land Rover Discovery. From launch in the UK, the new Discovery Sport will be equipped with the powerful and refined 2.2 litre SD4 turbodiesel engine producing 190 PS featuring stop-start technology, both 9-speed automatic and 6-speed manual transmissions are available.

Discovery Sport’s interior is an inclusive and highly configurable space, making it perfect for demanding family schedules and active lifestyles. Land Rover designers have prioritised head-, knee- and shoulder-room, and interior space is excellent in all derivatives thanks to a wheelbase of 2741mm, while the backs of the front seats are ergonomically contoured to unlock even more knee-room.

A selection of four trim levels is available: SE, SE Tech, HSE and HSE Luxury. Discovery Sport customers can choose from twelve exterior colourways: Fuji White, Santorini Black, Corris Grey, Indus Silver, Loire Blue, Scotia Grey, Aintree Green, Kaikoura Stone, Firenze Red, Yulong White, Barolo Black and Phoenix Orange.

Offering further differentiation, the Black Pack emphasises the vehicle’s sporting appearance, with a gloss-black grille, door mirror caps, front fender vents, bonnet and tailgate lettering and eye-catching 20-inch alloy wheels.

To achieve further distinction, a contrast roof extends to the base of the A-pillars and is available in either Santorini Black or Corris Grey.

A range of distinctive alloy wheel designs – including the striking Aero Viper – is available with a selection of Sparkle Silver and Gloss Black finishes depending on wheel design.

SE and SE Tech models are available with part-leather as standard, while HSE derivatives feature full grained leather. Luxurious Windsor leather is standard on the range-topping HSE Luxury. A selection of six interior colourways is available: Ebony, Cirrus, Glacier, Ivory, Almond and Tan.
