2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport: New Car Review

[_Klay_]

Not as large as the Range Rover Sport, the 2018 Land Rover Discovery Sport expands the storied British SUV builder's line by creating a smaller luxury SUV on par with the Mercedes GLE, BMW X5 and Lexus RX. Though not as roomy as the Audi Q5 and Volvo XC60, the Discovery Sport is still a capable compact luxury crossover, offering impressive levels of sophistication wrapped in a ruggedly handsome shell steeped in Land Rover DNA. Land Rover's Terrain Response system ensures that the Discovery Sport can keep up with its better-known siblings, granting it accesses to places where many luxury competitors dare not tread. Then again, Land Rover knows that the majority of Discovery Sport owners will rarely venture far from the paved path, which is why the British automaker has endowed the Discovery Sport with a smooth ride, two powerful yet fuel-efficient engine choices and impressive cornering and handling abilities.
