The Land Rover Discovery blends genuine off-road prowess with grown-up luxury, making it a smart choice for buyers who want weekend adventure and weekday refinement in one package. It feels suitably rugged when the road ends and wonderfully civilized when the tarmac begins — a practical family hauler that also enjoys getting a little dirty.
