Land Rover Introduces Discovery 2.0L

The 2.0-litre four-cylinder Ingenium engine is designed to deliver impressive torque and power outputs, combined with excellent refinement, reduced CO2 emissions and lower fuel consumption.

The Discovery’s Ingenium engine is available with 300PS, delivering an improved fuel economy of 9.6l/100km and CO2 emissions of 222g/km. The powerful engine has a top speed of 201km/h and can accelerate from 0 – 100km/h in just 7.7 seconds.

The Discovery embodies Land Rover’s drive to go Above and Beyond, combining British desirability with an unstoppable spirit of adventure. It’s an authentic, three-row, sevenseater SUV with unbeatable capability and versatility.

Everyday ingenuity has been at the heart of the Discovery for the last 27 years. The Discovery signals the transformation from cogs to code with more than 1.2 million customers with us on every step of the journey.

The fifth-generation model benefits from Land Rover’s strong, safe and light full-size SUV architecture, delivering comfort and adaptability like no other.

Land Rover’s design and engineering integrity ensures the Discovery is able to accommodate seven full-sized adults in an SUV body measuring less than five metres in length (4,970mm). Most similar-sized competitors provide 5+2 seating but the Discovery is designed for 95th percentile adults to sit comfortably in its rearmost seats, providing complete interior flexibility. Both third-row seats incorporate ISOFIX mounting points (five in total), so families have the freedom to put child seats in the most appropriate seat for any journey.
