Speaking of driving versatility, the new 2021 Land Rover Discovery features air suspension, which is now standard with an adjustable height system, along with multi-terrain technology for some thrilling off-road experiences. There is also the new Wade Mode which enhances smoother deep water crossings.
Technology-wise, the new Discovery is indeed revolutionary with all the gadgetries filling up the interior. First, there is the brand new Pivi Pro infotainment System with an 11.4-inch HD touchscreen. Next is the instrument cluster with a 12.-30inch digital display.
