Refreshed Land Rover Discovery Sport gets new tech for 2017

The Land Rover Discovery Sport gets fresh infotainment and in-car technology as part of its 2017 model-year upgrade, which is on sale now at the same starting price of £31,095.

 

The majority of the improvements come in the Disco Sport’s cabin. It will now be offered with optional InControl Touch Pro, an upgraded infotainment system that gets a 10.2-inch touchscreen with a pixel density than the standard 8.0-inch set-up for a clearer display.

 

The interface on Jaguar Land Rover’s latest system is designed to replicate smartphone controls, with users swiping between features and pinching to zoom on maps. In addition to the in-car improvements, the Discovery Sport gets fresh safety features; a drowsiness detection system will now come as standard, along with an intelligent speed limiter that reads the road signs and prompts the driver to accept any change in speed limit, and camera-based lane departure tech that will gently steer the car back into the correct lane.

 

Finally, there are four new body colours - Silicon Silver, Farallon Black, Carpathian Grey and Aruba. The updated Discovery Sport is on sale now; the starting price for the range remains unchanged, at £31,095.
