First Generation of Land Rover Discovery Sport

Conception of Land Rover Discovery Sport

The Discovery Sport produce the third generation of compact SUV manufactured by Land Rover and replaced the Freelander. Although the Freelander make range had been a successful way to enable Land Rover to move into the medium SUV market. The company felt that the Freelander make was tainted with memories of inaccuracy, and that the Discovery make was more prestigious.

The future design direction of the Discovery sub-brand was originallyviewed in the form of the Land Rover Discovery Vision concept, display at the 2014 New York International Show, and it was during the show that Gerry McGovern released the Land Rover Discovery Sport would be the first latest model in the enlarged Discovery family. The sub-make was to be used in the same way as Range Rover, but on leisure and family adapted models, with Range Rover models focusing on the luxury market segment. The latest Discovery sub-brand was to feature two makes initially, the compact Discovery Sport and the larger Discovery.

Exterior Design of Land Rover Discovery

The Discovery Sport was design by Gerry McGovern, who was responsible for the design of the earliest Freelander model. The Discovery Sport shares various design cues with the larger Discovery Vision concept, though the concept vehicle is closer in size to the Discovery 4 make. McGovern leave Land Rover for Ford in 1999, before returning as Director of progressive Design in 2004.He was boost to Design Director when Geoff Upex retired in 2006, and has been responsible for design of all three modern Range Rover models.

The Discovery Sport characteristics steel monocoque, the bonnet, wings, roof and tailgate are manufactured from aluminum and a panoramic glass sunroof is accessible either as standard or as an optional extra depending on model versions. A powered tailgate can also be unique as an option, featuring remote control operation.

In Specific markets, the bonnet is fitted with an airbag to modified pedestrian survivability in the event of a collision. The airbag is mounted in a panel at the trailing edge of the bonnet panel and assure a pedestrian’s head from striking the base of the windscreen.

Land Rover Discovery Engines

The Discovery Sport was firstlymechanized by the similar engine range that features in the outgoing Freelander 2 model for the first model year, the Ford Eco boost Ford Eco boost four cylinder 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine generating 240 PS (the only engine option for North America) and the Ford Duratorgfour cylinder 2.2-litre turbocharged diesel engine, producing either 150 PS or 190 PS.

The engines sourced from Ford were replaced by engines from Jaguar Land Rover’s latest Ingenium engine line from late 2015. The Ingenium family is a range of Standard four cylinder turbocharged engines of 2.0-litre capacity, manufactured around individual 500cc cylinders. The family is produced in both petrol and diesel versions, and could also be produced in 3, 5 and 6 cylinder choices in future, depending on needs and requirements. The range was designed from the outset to serve multiple hybrid power systems, and it was expected that there would be a plug in hybrid variants.

The Ingenium engine range can be configured to give mulita-power outputs, and the most fuel competent Discovery Sport eD4 model is powered by a 150 PS 2.0-litre four cylinder turbocharged diesel engine in a front wheel drive only Structure.This make is planned to have CO2 emissions of 119 g/km and fuel consumption of up to 24.2 km/L.
