There is some turbo-lag, but the transition from no boost to boost is not the sharp contrast it is with some turbodiesels: the power/torque delivery is very linear. The engine is smooth and spins out freely. The same goes for the centre infotainment screen – it’s all very straight-forward. The instrument cluster is clear and it’s easy to find and change information menus. The Land Rover scores high marks for perceived quality – the materials look and feel luxurious and it all looks well put together. The (optional) third row seating is strictly for sub-teenagers only. Second-row seating is ample for a pair of adults, although three’s a squeeze. Front seats lack under-thigh support but are otherwise supportive and comfortable. The interior is spacious for front and second-row occupants. Noteworthy standard features for the Discovery Sport SE include Trailer Stability Assist, rear-view camera, lane departure warning, autonomous emergency braking, sat-nav, leather seats, power tailgate and push-button start. The SE TD4 150 starts out at $58,355 but, as tested with options, was specced $78,609.
