The menu icons are small and can be difficult to use on the move, and there is a degree of latency you’ll not find in rivals, not least the BMW X3, whose iDrive system also benefits from a central rotary controller. However, despite the sleek aesthetic and broad capabilities, this Touch Pro system still falls foul of some familiar usability drawbacks. Land Rover also offers an Online Pack with 4G wi-fi hotspot and a 10-speaker Meridian sound system. On our SE test car, both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone mirroring were offered, allowing passengers to use apps such as Spotify and Waze or Google Maps. Jaguar Land Rover’s latest 10in Touch Pro infotainment system is standard across the Discovery Sport line-up and neatly embedded into the sloping dashboard. Higher trim levels, including our SE-spec test car, are fitted with digital instruments in place of old-world dials, and standard across the range is the same 10in infotainment display from the Evoque and Land Rover’s rotary climate controls, which are both sleek and intuitive.

Brake-based torque vectoring at the rear axle should help out in this respect too, while making for tidier handling manners on the road. Adaptive dampers are available optionally, although our car was supplied without.Īs before, Land Rover’s Terrain Response off-road program focuses on adjusting the Discovery Sport’s electronic stability systems, but being a Land Rover the model should nonetheless be capable of travelling farther off the beaten track than any of its immediate rivals. Suspension is by way of MacPherson struts at the front with a multi-link set-up at the rear, while coil springs make for a fixed ride height. Our microphone tests will no doubt determine how effective these measures have been. Land Rover claims that, along with rigidly mounted subframes, it allows for improvements in noise, vibration and harshness levels. In addition to its ability to house these new powertrain options, the PTA underpinning’s renewed, lightened, mixed-metal construction contributes to an improvement in body rigidity.
