For more information about the Discovery's fuel economy, visit the EPA's website. On our 75-mph highway fuel economy test, our six-cylinder test vehicle managed only 22 mpg. The EPA estimates that the turbocharged four-cylinder model will deliver 19 mpg city and 22 mpg highway while the hybridized six-cylinder powertrain is rated for 18 mpg city and 24 mpg highway.

Land Rover Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG If towing a heavy load is on the docket, the Disco is rated to tow up to 8200 pounds. Steering feel, however, is nonexistent, especially on-center, where a large dead spot creates a need for frequent steering corrections when cruising on the highway. Overall ride quality is quite good, and even harsh bumps are dealt with easily. The Disco never lets you forget that you're piloting a large SUV. The Discovery's handling isn't as ponderous as one might expect, but it still feels clumsy and top-heavy when changing direction. The Land Rover's adventure-ready mission caters to those seeking an SUV for much more than just trolling the parking lot at the mall, but it comes at the expense of on-road dexterity.

At our test track, the six-cylinder Discovery made it to 60 mph in 6.3 seconds. We haven't had a chance to test-drive the Disco with the base turbo four, but with the inline-six, the big Land Rover feels sprightly around town and delivers adequate power for highway merging and passing. Engine, Transmission, and PerformanceĪll Discovery models come with full-time all-wheel drive as standard, but buyers can choose between a 296-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder or a 355-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six, the latter of which employs a 48-volt hybrid system. The top-level HSE trim receives the inline-six as standard equipment. Base S and R-Dynamic models come standard with the turbo-four engine, but the R-Dynamic can be optioned with the more powerful inline-six-cylinder engine for $5550. The mapping on this website is provided by external mapping providers and is for general information purposes only.The mid-range R-Dynamic model offers the best value in the Discovery lineup, as it adds fog lamps, LED taillights, aluminum interior trim, and uniquely styled front and rear bumpers.
