The 2022 Land Rover Discovery offers a unique blend of luxurious interior appointments, comfortable everyday road manners and genuine off-road capability in a midsize three-row SUV package. That third row positions the Discovery as the family option in Land Rover's lineup, sitting above the more rugged Defender and below the extra-luxurious Range Rover.
The big changes for the Discovery arrived with its refresh for 2021, with revised exterior styling, a new infotainment system with a larger touchscreen, redesigned second-row seats, and new drivetrain choices among the highlights. As such, the 2022 Land Rover Discovery soldiers on virtually unchanged. The Discovery competes with other three-row luxury SUVs, including the Audi Q7, Volvo XC90, Genesis GV80 and Mercedes-Benz GLE, which offers third-row seating as an option.
Which Discovery does MatoCar recommend?
The Discovery is pretty well equipped in base form, but if you like your SUVs with a little more low-end grunt you'll need to upgrade to the S R-Dynamic. In addition to getting some exterior upgrades, it's available with the 355-horsepower turbocharged six-cylinder engine.The 2022 Land Rover Discovery is offered in three trim levels: S, S R-Dynamic and HSE R-Dynamic. Two engine choices are available: a turbocharged four-cylinder engine that makes 296 horsepower and a turbocharged inline six-cylinder good for 355 hp. A mild hybrid system is optional on the S R-Dynamic and standard on the HSE R-Dynamic. All-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic are standard across the range.
