A look at the differences between the Land Rover Discovery and the Land Rover Discovery Sport

There are many sport utility vehicles on the market, but there are very few that can deliver the blend of exceptional comfort and remarkable off-road capability that Land Rover vehicles are known for. Among the many 2022 Land Rover vehicles available on the market, the new Land Rover Discovery as well as the Land Rover Discovery Sport have a long history of exceeding the expectations of their owners. Both the Land Rover Discovery and Discovery Sport offer exceptional comfort and versatility as well as off-road capability that is unmatched in their respective segments.

Although the 2022 Land Rover Discovery and the 2022 Land Rover Discovery Sport share the same name, they are actually distinct models. They are in different segments and they are aimed at a different type of consumer. To help you better understand the difference between the two, we thought we would look at what differentiates the 2022 Land Rover Discovery from the 2022 Land Rover Discovery Sport.

2022 Land Rover Discovery

The 2022 Land Rover Discovery is a three-row sport utility vehicle that is a midsize premium SUV. That means it is larger than the Land Rover Discovery Sport and offers more interior space and more versatility it also sits higher off the ground and has more ground clearance. Ultimately, it is a larger SUV in every way. It has three rows of seats making it a favourite for families always looking for more space or active buyers that need an SUV that can fit all of their gear during their weekend activities. The Land Rover Discovery is also more comfortable and quieter than the Discovery Sport, and more luxurious overall.

2022 Land Rover Discovery Sport

The 2022 Land Rover Discovery Sport is smaller than the Discovery and it only has two rows of seats. It has less cargo space and it has a different interior. It is more affordable, but it doesn't have some of the luxury elements of the Discovery and the interior isn't as upscale. This may seem like the Discovery Sport is not as good or is an inferior SUV to the Land Rover Discovery but that is not the case. It is just in a different segment and aimed at a different buyer. When you compare the Land Rover Discovery Sport to its competitors, you see that it shines in terms of overall interior volume as well as overall performance. It is also a lot easier to drive in the city than a Land Rover Discovery, and many owners prefer the more agile and dynamic handling. It features an impressive turbocharged powertrain that delivers quicker accelerations than what you find in the three-row and heavier Land Rover Discovery.

Ultimately, choosing between the 2022 Land Rover Discovery and the 2022 Land Rover Discovery Sport is really a question of needs. Some owners prefer a smaller SUV that is more dynamic while others are looking for a three-row premium SUV. What you will find in both the Discovery and the Discovery Sport, however, is above average refinement in their respective segments and of course remarkable off-road capability which is inherent in every Land Rover and Range Rover product.
