2020 Land Rover Discovery Sport
The 2020 Land Rover Discovery Sport offers famous off-road capability in a compact crossover body. It's practical and comfortable, too. This year the Discovery Sport gets new headlights and taillights. New wheel designs echo the elegance of the Range Rover line. Under the hood, a new mild-hybrid powertrain is available in place of the standard turbo-4 for the priciest models. A 10-inch touchscreen is now standard, though Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility remains optional.
Skipping the new mild-hybrid-which is likely, since it comes on the top HSE trim-means sticking with the standard 2.0-liter turbo-4 that makes 246 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque. It mates up to a 9-speed automatic, and a standard all-wheel-drive system sends power to all four wheels.
The mild-hybrid offering improves the start-stop system of the turbo-4 in an attempt to enhance efficiency. It results in more power (286 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque), but there's no measurable fuel economy benefit over the base engine. Like the standard turbo-4, the mild-hybrid is rated at 19 mpg city, 24 highway, 21 combined.
Automatic emergency braking comes standard. Optional equipment includes adaptive cruise control, active lane control, and a surround-view camera system. Higher trims come with some of these features at no charge.
The IIHS and NHTSA have not crash-tested the Discovery Sport.
