Upper/lower split rear tailgate

Forged from tough, yet lightweight aluminium, Discovery 4's two-piece, asymmetric tailgate deftly handles difficult loads. Strong enough to support the weight of two adults when the vehicle is stationary, the tailgate gives impressive access, especially when loading large, bulky or heavy objects.

Exterior Upgrade colour coded wheel arches, rear bumper and rear applique panel

The exterior of Discovery 4 has undergone an extensive and impressive design refresh. New grille, plus new lights both front and rear are complemented by the introduction of body colour bumpers and wheel arches – on selected models.

Command driving position

The renowned command driving position, first established by Defender, is now a central feature of every Land Rover vehicle. It gives greater visibility ahead and of the surrounding environment as well as adding to the driver’s control and feeling of security.

Steering Wheel – leather

Newly designed, the steering wheel now incorporates a revised switch layout that places key data and remote audio controls right at the driver's fingertips through two five-way switches. Leather-covered, as standard, the wheel features cruise control, telephone and voice control - where included within the specification.

Automatic climate control

Front automatic climate control, featuring new heater and air conditioning designed to meeting global temperature extremes with side to side temperature control, is standard on all Discovery 4 models. The system incorporates a clutchless compressor, which enables a more controlled output of cold or blended air to the passengers.

Loadspace Cover – Parcel Shelf

The removable loadspace cover keeps cargo more secure, away from prying eyes and out of the glare of direct sunlight.

Interior Mood Lighting

Adding to the feeling of quality and prestige and enhancing Discovery 4’s ambience is subtle interior mood lighting. LEDs emitting white light are fitted to the front door casings and close to the rear view mirror. Locator lights on door releases assist occupants leaving the vehicle at night.

Electric sunroof

Everyone can enjoy the view. As well as an electric sunroof providing extra light and airiness to the front seats, the Alpine Roof extends the glass area to passengers in the second and third rows, while its combined reflective properties and interior sunblinds keep the cabin cool.

Hill Descent Control (HDC) with Gradient Release Control (GRC)

Hill Descent Control allows a smooth, controlled descent down difficult terrain without the need to use the brake or accelerator. Gradient Release Control enhances this by providing smoother, more gradual acceleration when confronted by a steep incline. It operates automatically whenever Hill Descent Control is engaged, temporarily maintaining brake pressure after you've released the brake pedal, then gradually increasing speed until your optimum off-road pace is attained.

Electronic air suspension and Terrain Response®

The air suspension can raise the ride height up to 125mm for extreme off-road use and also has an access mode that lowers the vehicle by 50mm for easier entry, exit and loading. The suspension delivers the most comfortable of rides. Its self-levelling feature yields outstanding handling and composure, working effortlessly with a wide range of vehicle loads. It also allows the vehicle height to be adjusted from outside the vehicle for trailer hitching, using the smart key buttons.
Land Rover’s patented Terrain Response® technology incorporates 60 years of our off-road expertise. The system optimises vehicle set-up for different terrain conditions and inspires supreme confidence over mud, gravel, grass, snow, and rocks, while delivering uncompromising performance on tarmac.
Terrain Response® also incorporates Sand Launch Control (SLC) and Rock Crawl (RC). Sand Launch Control helps prevent wheel spin and the vehicle ‘digging in’ when moving off from a standstill, while Rock Crawl delivers more vehicle composure by applying light brake forces.

Electric Park Brake (EPB)

Land Rover goes beyond the conventional handbrake lever with the easy-to-use Electric Parking Brake technology. EPB provides thoughtful assistance for those tricky hill starts, and can be released either with a switch or simply by driving away. It also helps ensure a more relaxed driving experience in stop/start city traffic.

Up to eight airbags

Discovery 4 has up to eight airbags strategically positioned around the vehicle to help protect all occupants during an accident. The front seats have both front and side airbags, with each row having its own curtain airbags.
