New Car: 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport HSE review • The 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport HSE has never had to fight for the hearts and minds of buyers in the style stakes. That it is one of the more distinguished premium SUVs on the road isn’t in question and never has been from the minute it launched. We generally like it’s flexibility at CarAdvice too, not to mention it’s driveability and comfort. • Exterior styling has always been a Disco Sport strong point, and this test model is no exception. Some love the black styling, some opine that it looks a bit cheap now that so many manufacturers are doing it, but I’d argue a premium SUV that will never see anything more gnarly than a gravel driveway, looks just about spot on with the black detailing seen here. There's no doubt this Discovery Sport is an attractive SUV. • For mine, the lighting design and execution is the most visually appealing styling point and it’s one of the first things you notice if you approach the Disco Sport on-road, especially at night. Makes you wonder why more manufacturers don’t have a strong lighting signature on all models. • Under the stubby bonnet, you’ll find Land Rover’s 2.0-litre turbo diesel four-cylinder engine, which offers up 132kW at 4000rpm and a stout 430Nm at 1750rpm. Against the ADR fuel claim of 5.3L/100km we used an average of 8.7L/100km, but we did note the live fuel use dropping well into the sevens on the freeway. Touring range on the open road therefore, is impressive. • Going for a gap from rolling speed, turning across traffic, motoring up from 40-60km/h to 80-100km/h, those are the kinds of scenarios where the engine is left wanting. It’s not a slug, but in 2017, we’re accustomed to much more effortless power and torque from turbo diesel engines. Given this is a new generation engine, it should punch a lot harder than it does, in my opinion. • With the stratospheric price of the options added to our test model, it begs the question why you wouldn’t stretch to an entry level Range Rover Sport (more so for those buyers using finance), or try to snap up a last of the generation Land Rover Discovery before they are all gone. • That said, the Discovery Sport still appeals for the reasons it did at launch and has continued to since. A compact exterior, spacious cabin, and quality appointments make for a premium ownership and driving experience. It cuts a stylish figure on the road too, something that’s hard to put a value on, but is priceless to buyers spending this kind of money. • Source sound: / nocopyrightsounds • New Car: 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport HSE review • Thanks for watching video.
