OCCUPANT SAFETY PROTECTION
All-New Discovery's optimised aluminium body structure
protects occupants using an incredibly strong and stable
safety cell. The crash structure is extensively optimised
using computer simulation tools which allows engineers
to conduct a significant number of ‘virtual’ crash tests
long before physical prototypes are available.
The occupant safety package includes a comprehensive
system of airbags and restraint systems including driver
and passenger airbags, side curtain and thorax airbags
and seat belt pretensioners*.
All-New Discovery features 6 airbags as standard and
8 airbags when seven seats are specified.
SEAT BELT PRETENSIONERS*
Acting in conjunction with the airbags, they provide
additional protection in the event of a front impact by
reducing the forward movement of the occupant.
ISOFIX POINTS
Up to four* lower ISOFIX/i-Size mountings and associated
top tether anchor points are featured on two rows of
seats**. These provide optimum safety for the fixing of
child restraints. Please check local market for availability
as standard.
CURTAIN AIRBAGS
WITH ROLLOVER SENSING
In the event of a side impact or rollover, these are
deployed to provide greater protection against
head injuries.
DRIVING AND PARKING SAFETY AIDS
All-New Discovery has been designed with safety in
mind. There are driving and parking safety aids available
including Blind Spot Monitor and Reverse Traffic Detection,
Park Assist and Surround Camera System. In addition,
LED lights have been cleverly developed to wrap around
the side of the vehicle to enable the indicators to be
more visible to improve safety. Adaptive LED headlights,
available as an option on SE, HSE and HSE Luxury,
combine practicality with distinctive design. For more
relaxed night-time driving, adaptive lighting varies the
light cast ahead of the vehicle so that the beams follow
the curve of the road.
