Land Rover Launches New Discovery Sport

Land Rover has revealed the new Discovery Sport, the world's most versatile and capable premium compact SUV. The first member of the new Discovery family, Discovery Sport, features 5+2 seating in a footprint no larger than existing 5-seat premium SUVs.

Discovery Sport's progressive new design approach defines the new Discovery family with optimised volume, proportions and stance. Its design leadership combines with engineering integrity to result in a dynamic profile, the ultimate use of interior space and 5+2 seating configurability.

"Our challenge has been to combine premium design with exceptional versatility; the two attributes must work in harmony," said Gerry McGovern, Land Rover Design Director and Chief Creative Officer. "I'm proud to say we've achieved that; Discovery Sport's dynamic design will resonate on an emotional level with consumers, and this vehicle is more versatile than any other premium compact SUV on the market."

Land Rover digitally revealed the new Discovery Sport at Spaceport America in New Mexico, USA, also launching the Land Rover Galactic Discovery competition. Four friends are set to win a once-in-a-lifetime trip to space with Land Rover's global partner, Virgin Galactic as part of an innovative digital competition at www.landrover.com/gotospace.

This spirit of adventure is reflected in Discovery Sport's interior, which has been designed with customers at its core. It features high-quality materials and a strong vertical centre console graphic to reflect the premium design of the exterior, while the core Discovery value of versatility is evident everywhere. Storage solutions are integrated into the cabin and up to four 12V power points and six USB charging sockets can be specified for all three rows of seating, allowing multiple electronic devices to be charged simultaneously.

A host of innovations have allowed Discovery Sport to introduce the versatility of 5+2 seating into the premium compact SUV class for the first time. An all-new multi-link rear axle not only provides engaging driving dynamics but it also provides ample and flexible cabin space behind the second row.

Coupled with supple long-travel suspension, the innovative rear axle also ensures the Discovery Sport is comfortable, refined and rewarding to drive on-road, while retaining the breadth of all-terrain capability for which Land Rover is world-renowned. In fact, with approach, departure and breakover angles of 25, 31 and 21 degrees respectively, Terrain Response® technology, and the ability to wade to 600mm, Discovery Sport offers class-leading capability in all conditions.

As with every new Land Rover, safety has been a key priority in the development of the new Discovery Sport, resulting in a first-in-class pedestrian airbag, autonomous emergency braking, and a state-of-the-art bodyshell featuring both ultra-high-strength steel and lightweight aluminium.

This represents a fraction of the advanced equipment available in Discovery Sport, which also includes Head-Up Display, an all-new 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and tilt-and-slide row-two seating for maximum interior configurability.

At launch the Discovery Sport will be equipped with a range of four-cylinder turbocharged petrol and diesel engines. Both the all-alloy Si4 2.0-litre petrol engine and the 2.2-litre turbodiesel feature stop-start technology, high-pressure direct injection, low-friction internal components and smart regenerative charging for outstanding performance and economy.

Later in 2015, a highly efficient ED4 turbodiesel engine will join the range with CO2 emissions of just 119g/km*. Both 9-speed automatic and 6-speed manual transmissions are available, along with a choice of two- or four-wheel-drive.

"Not only does Discovery Sport mark the introduction of the first new member of our expanding Discovery family, it also brings the versatility of 5+2 seating to the compact premium SUV market," said Phil Popham, Jaguar Land Rover Group Marketing Director. "Discovery Sport's versatility is a key differentiator. It is quite simply the most accomplished vehicle in its segment."

Discovery Sport will be produced at Land Rover's award-winning manufacturing facility at Halewood, Liverpool. It goes on sale in early 2015 alongside the existing seven-seat Land Rover Discovery in over 170 markets worldwide

Modello Precedente : Land Rover Freelander Facelift 2013

Non mi convince

Modificato 9 Giugno 2015 da Touareg 2.5

Belloccia. Porta poco di nuovo al linguaggio stilistico LR, ma si differenzia a sufficienza dalla Evoque. Mi piacciono un sacco le grafiche dei fari.

Per me è sì.

[Uomo dell'Ovest]

Mi piace come grossa evoque. Avrei preferito, per il discovery, che continuassero con qualcosa di più squadrato.

[airdominance]

Per me questo modello guarda molto al nord america...

[indeciso88]

Mi pare che abbiano tradito troppo lo spirito iniziale del discovery, mi aspettavo qualcosa di meno berlinoso

Questo non è il discovery...ma il sostituto del Freelander

[indeciso88]

Non era l'evoque il sostituto del freelander!?

[RiRino]

Parrebbe niente male....

[poliziottesco]

Non era l'evoque il sostituto del freelander!?

evoque e' il suv piccolo e fighetto, facente parte della famiglia evoque-RR SPort e RR. Questo sostituisce feelander e prende questo nome perche inaugura una famiglia "discovery" di cui fara' parte anche il nuovo Disco. Il nuovo Defender invece non ho capito ancora se fara' parte anch'esso di questo gruppo di suv in teoria utilitaristici ma ovviamente fighettosi o se giochera' a parte. A me pare che neanche in LR abbiano avuto o abbiano tuttora le idea molto chiare...

Aspetto altre foto, per il momento l'impressione è migliore di quello che mi aspettavo visti i prototipi.
