You can barely see the wires, and the defogging works a treat, but it does make windshield replacements exceptionally expensive, so make sure your insurance covers it. Apple Maps via CarPlay looks exceptionally good, though I wish CarPlay and Android Auto were wireless.Įxtra equipment included a $600 Cold Climate Pack that included a heated windshield that uses tiny wires embedded in the glass to warm it up for defogging, much like your rear-window does. It's one of the best-looking systems out there, and it's easy-to-use and easy on the eyes. It has all manner of safety features, but the terrific 11.4-inch touchscreen in the center is running Land Rover's Pivi Pro infotainment system and is worth the price of admission right there.

The only mention of the hybrid powertrain on the window sticker for the Discovery is the bewildering acronym "MHEV" on the engine description, standing for "Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle." That doesn't mean anything to anyone who isn't a car journalist, so you'll be forgiven for being surprised about it being a hybrid. Interestingly, we've gotten to a point where car companies barely mention the hybrid-ness of their vehicles. It had all-wheel drive with both high- and low-range, as well as an eight-speed automatic and all manner of off-road toys like multiple off-road modes, hill descent control, and an adjustable air suspension.

A new significant feature that may go unnoticed until you need extra space is that every seat can be folded and moved ahead or backward, which includes the third-row seats. The infotainment system with the new Pivi Pro system is all-new. The vehicle also gets a new steering wheel as well as a new gear selector. What the 4x4 does get are new bumpers, new headlights, taillights as well as 20-inch alloy wheels. The next generation of the Discovery was announced back in 2017 and it now gets a noticeable face-lift but nothing major as far as exterior panels as concerned. The new luxury SUV will be offered with a few options for engines as well as interior trim levels.
