2014 Land Rover Discovery Sport was released, its design concept fully follows the Land Rover Vision concept car released in the same year. The new Land Rover Discovery model released at the same time shares the same design concept with the Discovery Sport. Power of the Land Rover Discovery Sport: In terms of power, the Discovery Sport comes standard with a 2.0T engine across the range, but it is divided into high-power and low-power versions based on different tuning. The output of the low-power version is 147kw (200 horsepower) with 320 Nm of torque. The high-power version delivers 177kw (241 horsepower) with 340 Nm of torque. Both versions are matched with a 9AT transmission. Additionally, the Discovery Sport comes standard with a full-time four-wheel-drive system across the range, with a multi-plate clutch-type central differential structure. Configuration of the Land Rover Discovery Sport: In terms of configuration, the standard features across the range include tire pressure display, rearview camera, cruise control, automatic parking, engine start-stop technology, hill descent control, hill start assist, panoramic sunroof, keyless start system, leather multifunction steering wheel with shift function, 5-inch LCD instrument panel, touch central LCD screen, road rescue call, Bluetooth function, LED daytime running lights, automatic headlights, rain-sensing wipers, etc.
The Terrain Response system on the Land Rover Discovery is truly impressive. I use it for my daily commute and occasional off-roading. The default General mode provides a smooth and stable ride, perfect for city driving. The Eco mode saves fuel, especially during highway cruising, helping me cut costs. There are several off-road modes: Sand mode boosts power output on beaches to reduce tire slip; Mud and Ruts mode enhances traction on rainy days or muddy roads with firmer suspension for stability; Snow mode is ideal for snowy conditions, limiting slip for safety. I frequently use Mud and Ruts mode in the rain—the vehicle remains rock-solid with no risks. Switching modes requires stopping to turn the dial, as the system automatically adjusts engine and traction control. Regular maintenance includes checking button functionality and updating software to prevent malfunctions. The detailed mode options cater to various scenarios, making driving more flexible and reassuring.
