The seven-seat 2023 Land Rover Discovery SUV continues the recently simplified, repositioned model line-up with more standard equipment and fewer options.
UPDATE, 19/08/2022 – Jaguar Land Rover Australia has further increased the before on-road asking price for the Discovery by between $3179 and $3797, depending on the model.
“When necessary, our retail pricing is adjusted to reflect the increased levels of costs from suppliers, shipping, and exchange rates,” said a Jaguar Land Rover Australia spokesperson.
Pricing now starts at $109,154 before on-road costs for the entry-level Discovery S D300.
To compensate for this price hike, Land Rover is making a wireless charging pad standard across the range, along with its clever, wearable Activity Key which you can use to lock and unlock the doors. It’s also adding a standard black contrast roof on R-Dynamic variants.
Every Discovery model has an inline-six powertrain, either turbo-petrol or twin-turbo diesel, with a 48V mild-hybrid system.
Despite the price rise, the 2023 Discovery is still priced similarly to its Audi Q7, BMW X5 and Mercedes-Benz GLE rivals.
A Jaguar Land Rover spokesperson said these 2023 Discovery models will arrive on Australian soil from April 2022.
All prices exclude on-road costs
The 2023 Land Rover Discovery has a choice of two inline-six engines, with one petrol option designated as ‘P360’ and a diesel option designated as ‘D300’.
D300 variants use a 3.0-litre straight-six twin-turbocharged diesel with 48V mild-hybrid technology, developing 221kW of power and 650Nm of torque.
P360 variants are powered by a 3.0-litre straight-six turbocharged petrol engine, also with a 48V mild-hybrid system, which produces 265kW and 500Nm.
All models are mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission that sends power to all four wheels through an all-wheel drive system.
The 2023 Land Rover Discovery uses 7.5L/100km in D300 diesel variants, and 9.2L/100km in P360 petrol variants.
D300 variants have a 89L fuel tank, whereas P360 variants have a 90L fuel tank.
The 2023 Land Rover Discovery measures in at 2073mm wide, 1888mm tall, and 4956mm long with a 2923mm wheelbase.
All variants have a braked towing capacity of 3500kg, while unbraked is 750kg.
With all three rows of seating upright, the Discovery has a boot capacity of 258L, which can be expanded to 2391L with the second and third rows folded.
The 2023 Land Rover Discovery is backed by a five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty, which also covers the paint, while the bodywork is covered for corrosion for six years.
2023 Discovery models, like every Land Rover vehicle purchased new in Australia, have a complimentary roadside assist program that runs for the life of the warranty.
D300 variants have a five-year/130,000km servicing plan that costs $2650, whereas P360 variants have a five-year/102,000km servicing plan that costs $2250.
The Land Rover Discovery has a five-star rating from ANCAP, based on testing conducted in 2017.
It received an adult occupant protection score of 90 per cent, a child occupant protection score of 80 per cent, a pedestrian protection score of 75 per cent, and a safety assist score of 73 per cent.
