ON-ROAD DYNAMICS

All-New Discovery has been designed to a deliver a

confident, comfortable and engaging driving experience

to make the miles go by virtually unnoticed.

With its wide-spaced double-wishbone design at the front

and advanced multi-link layout at the rear, the suspension

delivers more responsive handling without compromising

Land Rover’s hallmark all-terrain capability.

Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) monitors All-New

Discovery’s dynamic behaviour, and intervenes if the

system determines that the vehicle is not responding

according to the driver’s inputs.

The DSC system operates by reducing engine torque

and/or applying the brakes on selected wheels to correct

the vehicle’s cornering attitude and in addition can

counteract understeer or oversteer conditions effectively.

This system is standard on all models.

All-New Discovery’s sublime ride quality is heightened

further by such features as Electronic Power Assisted

Steering (EPAS), a variable ratio system and speed

sensitive steering. Standard on all models, EPAS is

integrated into driver and chassis systems, helping to

reduce the engine load to aid efficiency and deliver

a confident and intuitive drive.

The variable ratio system has been tuned by Land Rover

engineers to provide ease of control, on or off-road, when

driving in a straight line or when turning. Different gear

ratios within the steering rack help to reduce steering

sensitivity when driving straight, but compensate for less

steering input when turning.

Speed sensitive steering increases the weight and feel of

the steering as your speed increases to give stability and

a greater feel of confidence. It also assists you at lower

speeds to aid manoeuvrability by lightening the feel of

steering. This system is standard on all models.
