LAND ROVER CELEBRATES 35 YEARS OF DISCOVERY
Three and a half decades of the Land Rover Discovery. Feeling old yet? That’s three and a half decades, five generations, a generous sprinkling of 4x4 of the Year awards and heaven only knows how many limited editions.
It’s heaven only knows how many plus one now, anyway. Because how does Land Rover celebrate an anniversary? Why, with a special edition, of course!
And not only is there a special edition on the cards. It’s going to premiere a new engine, too. This is the D350, a six-pot mild hybrid diesel with outputs of 350bhp and 516lbf. ft. The most powerful engine used in the Disco so far, it displaces 3.0 litres and launches the vehicle from 0-60 in 5.9 seconds while returning a best-case WLTP figure of 34.0mpg.
What else about the 35th Edition is going to make it stand out from the rest of the range? It’s based on the Metropolitan model (or ‘inspired by,’ to use Land Rover’s words) and features 22” black alloys, a sliding pan roof, four-zone climate, a cooled cubby box, head-up display, massage seats and the Cold Climate and Towing packs among the highlights.
