Landrover Discovery Sport 2 SE Automatic

The 2017 Land Rover Discovery Sport Si4 represents the petrol-powered entry level to Land Rover's seven-seat offering. It's big enough to accommodate seven, while also still capable off-road – a key for any vehicle wearing the Land Rover badge.
The svelte design follows a rising belt line that converges towards a sloping roof line to give the Discovery Sport the sporty look some buyers are after.Cargo capacity measures 981 litres and expands to 1698 litres when the second row is folded and slid forward. With the third row erect, there's only a small amount of cargo volume. Under the bonnet of the Discovery Sport Si4 is a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine that produces 177kW of power and 340Nm of torque, consuming 8.2 litres of fuel per 100km and sending torque through a nine-speed automatic transmission.

Unlike some of the more affordable seven-seat SUVs around this price bracket, the Discovery Sport features a full-time four-wheel drive system that constantly varies torque between the front and rear axles.It also comes with Land Rover's Terrain Response system, which tailors torque delivery and stability control intervention as the car covers various surfaces. In terms of off-road equipment, the Discovery Sport features a 25-degree approach and 21-degree departure angle, along with a class-leading water fording depth of 600mm and 212mm of ground clearance.
