A Quick Look At The Land Rover 3
OK, first is the bright yellow button — hill descent control which slows your descent to 7km/h regardless of the slope steepness and footing underneath (you can modify it via the cruise control buttons).Each setting adjusts the ride height to suit, controls the centre and optional rear differential, adjusts gear-change points and throttle sensitivity, and reduces traction control and ABS intervention to best suit the under-tyre conditions.
All engines come with a ZF-sourced six-speed automatic gearbox with sport mode and a Command Shift manual selector. You can only get the diesel version with a six-speed manual option.Forget everything.Discovery 3 has room for seven adults — yes, even in the rear two seats — and the smart placement of driving controls and secondary controls means they fall easily and readily to hand.
Seat height is more in tune with stepping across into the vehicle instead of climbing up.All rows also get their own glass sunroof, though only the front one slides and tilts; the rest are fixed. The front seats adjust for height, rake and slide, and the steering wheel tilts and telescopes through a decent range. Good front visibility and better rear visibility (the rear tire is now under the car) allow for easier manoeuvring.Good cabin storage compartments stop gear from rattling around, and good fitting seats perform the same calming act on humanoids. Disco’s versatile seating set-up allows a number of variations from two to seven seats and provides smart storage for the luggage cover when it’s not in use.
Boot space is cavernous in two-seat format, ample with five up but barely there when six and seven are up. The Discovery’s tailgate split opens and the the bottom half can support up to 250kg — two people at a tailgate party perhaps?Active safety features include constant all-wheel drive with electronic traction control and dynamic stability control.
Anti-lock brakes are standard, as are disc brakes on all four wheels. Use of lightweight aluminium in the bonnet and other panels around the vehicle keep the centre of gravity down and enhance Discovery’s on-road dynamics. Over all I liked this check back for more quick sum ups on popular vehicles.
