2025 Land Rover Discovery off-road review

Land Rover Discovery: Has It Lost Touch with Its Heritage?

The Land Rover Discovery has been a staple in the off-road community for years, known for its rugged capabilities and go-anywhere attitude. But with the latest model, has it lost touch with its heritage and become just another soft-roading SUV? Or does it still retain some of its ancestral off-road DNA?

Introduced in 2017, the Discovery 5, as it is affectionately known, no longer carries a numerical suffix like its predecessors. On test here is the flagship Discovery D300 Dynamic HSE, a 2024 model which will be upgraded to the more powerful D350 turbo-diesel engine for 2025.

At first glance, the bubbly, rounded exterior design may not appeal to everyone, but it exudes a classy and refined English charm. The D300 inline-six diesel engine delivers ample power, though there is a slight delay in standing-start acceleration, typical of modern vehicles.

The interior of the Discovery is pleasant and professional, with a refined and cultured feel. The black panelling with silver accents adds a touch of elegance, though some may find it similar to the interior of the GWM Tank 500 at a lower price point.

On the road, the Discovery offers a smooth and comfortable ride with plenty of power. The lane-keep assist system is hands-on at speed, providing less interference than other vehicles. However, the driver-assist warning systems can be annoying with incessant chimes and beeps.

When it comes to off-road performance, the Discovery truly shines. The all-wheel drive system, suspension, and vehicle dynamics work seamlessly to provide confidence and control on various surfaces. The low-range capabilities make climbing and descending a breeze, with impressive engine braking at low speeds.

The traction control system is well-calibrated, ensuring traction even on wet and slippery surfaces. The Discovery’s factory-fitted air suspension with adjustable ride height function compensates for its limited approach and departure angles.

Overall, the Discovery proves to be a capable and fun off-roader, with plenty of power and performance. The traction, power delivery, and build quality make it worth its price tag. The exterior design may not be for everyone, but the Discovery’s performance and capabilities make it a standout in its class.

In conclusion, the Land Rover Discovery may have a more rounded look, but it impresses with its power, performance, and off-road capabilities. Whether used for touring, towing, or technical off-roading, the Discovery offers something for everyone. Despite its higher price point, the Discovery is a worthy alternative to other off-road SUVs in the market.
