The Land Rover Discovery, as many know, is no newcomer to the British automaker’s line-up. Gracing the driveways of off-road enthusiasts and urban families alike, the Discovery (colloquially referred to as the Disco) has been around since 1989 and has developed a reputation for being a great all-rounder. Balancing its stellar off-road capabilities with everyday comfort and luxury, the Discovery makes a strong case for itself when pitched against rivals such as the Audi Q7, BMW X5, and Volvo XC90.
Currently in its fifth-generation, the Land Rover Discovery shares its underpinnings with its pricier cousins, the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport, but allows potential buyers to become a part of the Land Rover family at just BHD 23,100 in Bahrain. The 3.0-liter supercharged V6 engine that graces the line-up, develops 335-horsepower, making the Discovery the most powerful and capable amongst its German and Swedish rivals.
Climbing the spec-ladder from the entry-level “S” variant into the “SE”, “HSE”, and “HSE Luxury” grades sees prices and features increase proportionally. Higher grades benefit from plenty of comfort, entertainment and safety features, such as an electronic center differential, a 5-mode terrain response system, rain-sensing wipers, automatic LED headlights, power third-row seats, heated and ventilated seats in the first two rows, and a whole lot more.
For those in search of a safe and comfortable family car, with the features of a premium offering and the off-road credentials of a dedicated off-roader, the Land Rover Discovery is the vehicle to go for. Multi-talented and a great companion for all excursions, it’s no surprise the Discovery is called the Swiss Army knife of the SUV world. Attractive and even more so with current promotions, the Land Rover Discovery is available with a sizeable 5% cashback on all new purchases.
