Three reasons to buy a Land Rover Discovery Sport for your summer vacation

Because of the pandemic, it's a safe bet that this summer will be spent on the road in Quebec. If you're looking for a new vehicle to get away from it all this summer, there's no better choice than the Land Rover Discovery Sport.


And why, you ask? Here are a few arguments that will give you an idea.


The ultimate in luxury


Land Rover isn't the only brand to offer luxury, but it has a way of doing it that's always appealing. The richness of the Discovery Sport's surfaces is such that our senses are challenged when we touch a surface when our nostrils smell the air around us.


This is coupled with a presentation that is visually stunning.


And then there's the high-quality Meridian sound system, sure to win the hearts of music lovers. And of course, you can plug in all your devices to be able to listen to your music on the road.


Performance: the perfect compromise


With 246 horsepower and 269 accessible pound-feet of torque under the hood, there's no shortage of performance in the 2021 Land Rover Discovery Sport. What's interesting is that the 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that delivers this power is also fuel-efficient. In fact, despite the vehicle's size, it promises a fuel economy of 9.7 L/100 km on the highway, which is excellent.


An eight-speed automatic transmission is paired with the vehicle, and a manual mode allows the driver to take control and manage the transmission's workload.


Off-road capabilities


Finally, when hitting the road for your vacation this summer, you might be tempted to hit a trail that isn't hospitable to all types of vehicles. Fortunately, with a Discovery Sport, you'll be able to do just that thanks to the Terrain Response system that comes with the vehicle. This system allows you to attack the different surfaces you encounter thanks to its driving modes, which allow you to adapt the vehicle's behaviour to the type of surface you find yourself on. Whether it's gravel, sand, mud or asphalt, the Discovery Sport will leave its competitors in its wake.


The Activity Key


Finally, because Land Rover knows that the owners of its vehicles are true adventurers, you can opt for the optional Activity Key. This is a bracelet that you can put around your wrist. It allows you to leave your keys securely in the vehicle while you go about your business, whether it be mountain biking or kayaking. When you return, your Discovery Sport will recognize the Activity key and unlock it as if you were in possession of the regular key. Magic!


For these reasons and more, the Discovery Sport is the perfect dance partner you want to take on the road this summer.

The Beach Days accessory pack is Land Rover's response to exactly that kind of use.... Read more
