JLR India has announced the launch of the 2024 Land Rover Discovery Sport. The SUV is priced at Rs 67.90 lakh (ex-showroom).



Land Rover has made minor changes to the Discovery Sport for the 2024 model year. The SUV now gets a piano black front grille flanked by LED headlamps that have been redesigned. It also gets new tail lamps and 19-inch alloy wheels.

Inside, the 2024 Discovery Sport comes equipped with Land Rover’s latest 11.4-inch Pivi Pro touchscreen infotainment system with mobile connectivity. The SUV also gets a digital instrument cluster, a panoramic glass roof, 360-degree camera with ClearSight Ground View and ClearSight Rear View Mirror which provides an unobstructed view behind the vehicle.

The Land Rover Discovery Sport is available with two engine options: a 2.0-litre petrol that delivers 245 BHP and 365 Nm and a 2.0-litre diesel engine that makes 201 BHP and 430 Nm. Both engines are paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel drive system.

That's one handsome looking SUV. Love that color. Will be interesting to see some of the detailed specs, features and interior pics. They need to increase their dealer footprint in India to pick up sales.

Didn't they have a larger v6 diesel on offer some years back? 201 hp/430 nm seems like fortuner level on paper specs.

New Pivi pro system, new diamond cut alloys finally!, adaptive dynamic, purification pro, changes to steering wheel, gear lever is now on the lines of modern JLR products and all these inclusion with a price cut of 5 lac! This is something new in this age and time when a facelift gets a price cut unlike the current trend where the car prices are increased even with feature deletion. However, there’s no denying the fact that Discovery Sport is a dated product and there’s no wow factor in the interiors. If anyone is interested in a mechanically solid product with not much emphasis on creature comforts and mood lightings etc then Discovery Sport can be a good choice.

Well it seems to be a value for money car, for its segment now if you take into the current prices of vehicles like Fortuner, C5, Kodiaq, Tucson, XUV in their own respective segments.

The Discovery Sport never had a V6, the full size Discovery (Discovery5) did. Now I'm happy to see they are even offering 201 bhp when I bought mine 2018 I had to pick the top of the line HSE Luxury for 180 bhp as all other variants had 150ish bhp. Though mine is also tuned for 200+ but that's a different story

It surely is a good-looking vehicle and somewhat value for money in the current ridiculous market but I still can't digest the idea of paying 75L+ on-road for a 4-pot turbo diesel. At least a mild should have been provided.

That’s the problem with all these cars - Discovery Sport, GLC, X1, F Pace, Q3, Q5, XC60. The engines. First Fortuner and now especially the XUV700 have democratised ICE engine performance like nothing else. Mahindra’s 200bhp mStallion and 185bhp mHawk are right up there with these engines at one fourth the price. If the 700 isn’t posh enough, Kodiaq offers similar go with almost equally good cabin experience for about half the money.

Law of diminishing returns really catches up this segment of cars and their 2 liter 4 cylinder engines. Makes more sense to go electric at this price, else go for six cylinder options like X5 and GLE.

How is the reliability of the Land Rover Discovery Sport in general? I wonder if being on the market for 8 years means that most of its niggles have been sorted out. Looks like an attractive proposition for the price.
