Design hints revealed for new Land Rover Discovery Sport

By Jamie White – Head of Communications

Land Rover has dropped the biggest hint yet towards the design of the New Discovery Sport.

A camouflage wrap, confirms that the new compact SUV will arrive with 5+2 seating as standard in the UK.

As if ‘peeling back’ the outer layer of the vehicle, the camouflage reveals that the Discovery Sport will have two seats in the third row, enhancing its versatility and appeal as a compact, family SUV.

Prototype cars sporting the new camouflage design left Halewood, UK, where the Discovery Sport will be manufactured, to embark on final testing and development activity across several continents.

Gerry McGovern, Design Director and Chief Creative Officer for Land Rover, said: “As you would expect from a Discovery, the versatile Discovery Sport will feature  5+2 seating in the UK, offering spacious load space and configurable seating, while still retaining a more compact footprint than traditional 5-seat SUVs.”

The New Land Rover Discovery Sport compact SUV will go on sale, complementing the existing Discovery, in 2015.
