According to Khabar Khodro, Land Rover has officially revealed the 2015 Discovery. Though the car remains cosmetically identical to the previous model, the car gets many features from the XXV Special edition. Deliveries of the 2015 model will commence in UK from September.
The XXV Special edition was launched earlier this year to commemorate the 25th Anniversary of the Discovery. The 2015 model gets many standard features from this edition like satellite navigation, cruise control, front fog lamps, automatic headlamps, xenon headlamps with LED DRLs. The interior has been spruced up with black lacquer wood and leather-wrapped steering wheel. The HSE variant gets 20-inch alloys wheels instead of the 10-inch ones.
The 2015 Discovery is equipped with Land Rover’s new InControl Apps system, which is compatible with iPhones and Android phones and works with the Discovery’s existing infotainment system. The InControl Apps can display and control your cellphone’s apps with the car's touch screen.
This 2015 model seems to be an attempt by Land Rover to keep the sales of the Discovery going till the new line-up is introduced next year.
For the Indian market, the 2015 Discovery will continue to be powered by a 3.0-litre diesel engine producing 245bhp and 600Nm of torque. The engine sends power to all four wheels through a six-speed gearbox. It compete the Toyota Land Cruiser
