NEW DISCOVERY SPORT
2016
Ever since the first Land Rover was conceived in 1947, we have
built vehicles that challenge what is possible. These in turn
have challenged their owners to explore new territories and
conquer difficult terrains. Our vehicles epitomize the values
of the designers and engineers who have created them.
Each one instilled with iconic British design cues, delivering
capability with composure. Which is how we continue to break
new ground, defy conventions and encourage each other to
go further. Land Rover truly enables you to make more of your
world, to go above and beyond.
NEW DISCOVERY SPORT COMBINES
DESIGN EXCELLENCE, ENGINEERING
INTEGRITY AND EXCEPTIONAL
VERSATILITY TO CREATE A
PREMIUM COMPACT SUV.

lives up to even the most demanding
expectations. Confident and responsive,

COMFORT FOR ALL
CLIMATE FRONT SEATS
For the ultimate comfort whatever the
temperature, climate front seats are available.

ventilation through perforations in the leather
seats. The driver and passenger preferences
can be independently controlled via the
Touch-screen*.
HEATED REAR SEATS

CONFIGURABLE MOOD
LIGHTING
New levels of ambient refinement and
personalization have been reached with
the option of Configurable Mood Lighting.
Using a combination of colored LEDs, this
feature allows you to vary the shade, changing
the ambience of the cabin to suit your mood.
There are five colors in total, ranging from
white through to moonlight and red.
PANORAMIC ROOF
The optional full glass fixed panoramic roof
enhances the sense of space in the vehicle’s
interior and floods it with natural light as
well as providing uninterrupted views of the
surrounding environment.
To maintain a comfortable interior
temperature and to provide a sense of
privacy, the toughened glass has a dark tint
to offer a high degree of solar protection.
When additional shade or privacy is required,
an electric fabric sunblind can be extended
across the full surface of the glass roof.
*Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control. Do not operate, adjust or view the navigation or multimedia
systems under conditions that will affect your safety or the safety of others. Only use mobile phones, and other devices,
even with voice commands, when it is safe to do so..
