Land Rover Discovery Sport 2016
Carsguide Senior Journalist Laura Berry had this to say at the time: Prestige meets practical. It might not be as dynamically adept as some of its rivals but the Discovery Sport is an excellent all rounder when it comes to off-road, and on-road (child care) duties.

Land Rover Discovery Sport 2016 Q&As
Check out real-world situations relating to the Land Rover Discovery Sport 2016 here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.
-
Prado, Everest or Discovery Sport - which is best?
The Everest has a longer list of safety features, a higher towing capacity, is more family-friendly, and drives nicer; the Prado is more refined, but feels dated, the Discovery Sport is a true off-roader with car-like road manners. The Discovery for mine. Another to try is the Toyota Fortuner.

Best replacement for a Liberty Wagon?
With 2000 kg towing capacity the Discovery Sport has the towing capacity you want, it's more than the CX-5, and it's not limited to 80 km/h like the Subaru is. That's a big plus. The only criticisms we've heard about are some niggling interior fit and finish issues, and one or two electrical gremlins. The Land Rover also has more ground clearance than the CX-5 and a traction control system better set up for actual off-road work.
