DISCOVERY SPORT
2017
Ever since the first Land Rover vehicle 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.
DISCOVERY SPORT COMBINES DESIGN EXCELLENCE, ENGINEERING INTEGRITY AND EXCEPTIONAL VERSATILITY TO CREATE A PREMIUM COMPACT SUV.

DESIGN
EXTERIOR
This is a modern, relevant and compelling vehicle, with its well-proportioned compact body and purposeful stance. Its distinctive silhouette and beautifully sculpted surfaces all combine to create a vehicle that truly connects on an emotional level.
Discovery Sport is ready for anything. Characteristic design cues complement perfectly balanced proportions. Strong dynamic lines and robust detailing signal its incredible breadth of capability.
Signature features include a clamshell hood and distinctive two-bar grille with hexagonal mesh.
The fast hood line with a pronounced step into the rising beltline conveys a dramatic stance, while the roof tapers
subtly downwards, adding extra dynamism.

INTERIOR
The desirability of the exterior design continues into the cabin with bold horizontal and vertical lines, complemented by clean surfaces, superb finishes and optional premium leathers that give a luxury feel to the highly versatile interior. Inside and outside seamlessly blend into a vehicle that clearly communicates its Discovery DNA, while firmly looking forward.
This spirit of adventure is reflected in the interior of the Discovery Sport, which has been designed with you at its core. It features highquality materials and a strong vertical center console design to reflect the premium exterior.
The cabin is equipped with up to three 12V power points and five USB charging sockets. These can be specified on rows one and two, allowing multiple electronic devices to be charged simultaneously.
The optional new 10” Touchscreen* is a superb addition to the contemporary, clean interior and becomes a centerpiece of the fascia. With a 21:9 wide format and 80 percent more pixels than the standard 8” Touchscreen, the feature is available on HSE and HSE Luxury models.

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 6.3 inches for greater loadspace or comfort.
The optional third row, with its simple, single-handed 50:50 deployment, has been cleverly incorporated to avoid any
compromises to the vehicle’s exterior design, while 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.

COMPLETE DYNAMIC DESIGN PACKAGE
EXTERIOR
The Discovery Sport Complete Dynamic Design Package delivers a more assertive stance while retaining the instantly recognizable design cues of the Discovery Sport. Yet, when it comes to capability and versatility, nothing has been lost.
However, in terms of dynamism and appeal, much has been gained. The vehicle’s
bold new front and rear design with new contoured side mouldings form a dramatic presence. This has been augmented with a new Black Mesh design for the front grille and side vent. Distinctive Chrome exhaust finishers together with a Red SPORT badge further enhance the appearance.

TESTING
Before any vehicle can carry the Land Rover badge, rigorous testing has been carried out to establish the highest levels of luxury, performance and capability.

OFF-ROAD
From the icy proving grounds of Arjeplog, Sweden, to Dubai’s unforgiving desert sands, we ensure our legendary all-terrain performance is innate in every vehicle. Prototypes are developed across approximately 5,282 miles of the most demanding off-road routes.
SEMI-ANECHOIC CHAMBER
In the ‘neutral sound’ of our semi-anechoic chamber we precisely expose the cabin to a range of frequencies and vibrations, making certain that Discovery Sport sounds refined at every speed and across every surface.
HOT AND COLD CLIMATE
In real world environments and our climate chambers, we freeze vehicles to -104°F and bake them to 120°F. Key functions and systems are then scrutinised to our
exacting standards. So even in the most remote locations, comfort and peace of mind are never far away.
MONSOON
Using our monsoon simulator, we drench our vehicles with some 18,697 gallons of specially dyed water, while tilting it by as much as 45°, checking for even the slightest leak with UV lights. Ensuring each vehicle can enter and exit a body of water without a single droplet entering the cabin.

DRIVING TECHNOLOGY 19
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 Si4 engines and adapts to the responses of the vehicle’s engine, transmission, differentials and chassis systems to maximize driveability, comfort and traction.
There are four standard Terrain Response settings: General Driving, Grass/Gravel/Snow, Mud & Ruts and Sand. The vehicle provides added assistance on various terrains.
An optional fifth setting, Adaptive Dynamics is available. This mode tunes the suspension to deliver even tighter body control with flatter handling and sharper responses*.
*These systems are not a substitute for driving safely with due care and attention and will not function under all circumstances, speeds, weather and road conditions, etc. Driver should not assume that these systems will correct errors of judgment in driving. Please consult the owner's manual or your local authorized Land Rover Retailer for more details.

DRIVING TECHNOLOGY 21
ALL TERRAIN PROGRESS CONTROL
All Terrain Progress Control (ATPC) is a state-of-the-art new system designed to assist the drivers to set and maintain a steady speed in challenging conditions. The system is standard on all Si4 engines*.
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 snow or wet grass*.
Developed by the industry-leading allterrain specialists at Land Rover, 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.
*These systems are not a substitute for driving safely with due care and attention and will not function under all circumstances, speeds, weather and road conditions, etc. Driver should not assume that these systems will correct errors of judgment in driving. Please consult the owner’s manual or your local authorized Land Rover Retailer for more details.

DRIVING TECHNOLOGY 23
HILL DESCENT CONTROL (HDC)
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 ensures the vehicle doesn’t roll backwards as it pulls away on an incline*.
The vehicle also utilizes Gradient Release Control (GRC) which is designed to prevent the vehicle accelerating too quickly on a steep incline when the driver releases the brake*.

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 minimize body lean, providing a balanced, flat ride. The system will even sense off-road conditions and optimize the advanced MagneRide™ damper settings accordingly, delivering the perfect balance of agile handling
and a supple, controlled ride†.

TORQUE VECTORING
When cornering, the vehicle’s agility and stability are enhanced by the Torque Vectoring by Braking system. This feature comes as standard on all 4 Wheel Drive (4WD) vehicles. Monitoring the vehicle, the system is designed to constantly balance the distribution of torque between all
the wheels to improve grip and steering whether on or off-road†.

DRIVELINE
Optional on Si4 engines*, Active Driveline** delivers benefits in both on and off-
road situations. In many on-road driving conditions, the system is able to disconnect drive to the rear of the vehicle, providing maximum 2 Wheel Drive (2WD) fuel economy. A sophisticated control strategy continuously monitors key vehicle and environmental parameters.
If the requirements for 4WD are met, the system seamlessly and imperceptibly
reconnects drive to the rear of the vehicle within 300 milliseconds. When off-road driving, torque to each rear wheel can be varied according to the available grip. A dedicated display on the Touchscreen relays detailed information, so you always feel in control.

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 Package, that presents key vehicle data such as vehicle speed, gear position and navigation directions on the windshield, 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*.

DRIVING AIDS
Discovery Sport has a wealth of driving aids on hand to give you and your passengers an even more sure-footed drive. Featuring the most innovative thinking, engineering and technologies, these features will help you manage most traffic, highway, road and even night-time driving situations with ease.
LANE KEEP ASSIST AND DRIVER CONDITION MONITOR*
Lane Keep Assist is designed to detect when your vehicle is unintentionally drifting out of your lane, and to gently steer 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.
AUTONOMOUS EMERGENCY BRAKING*
If a potential collision is detected, this system displays a forward collision warning. If a collision is still anticipated and you have taken no action, this system is designed to apply the brakes to help reduce the severity of the possible impact.
BLIND SPOT MONITOR WITH REVERSE TRAFFIC DETECTION*
Blind Spot Monitor is designed to alert you to vehicles in, or 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.
