Synopsis

When the Discovery was launched in 1989 it filled a gap between Land Rover's original utilitarian vehicle and its luxury Range Rover and in doing so helped to create the market for family 4x4s that has become so significant. This profile looks in detail at the four generations of the design, from the prototypes and first production cars of 1990 up to the 2014 models, with detailed specifications, design drawings, and interior and exterior photographs of the various Discoveries.
