Land Rover introduces advanced Ingenium engine to Discovery Sport

By Swati Sanyal Tarafdar,

Added 28 April 2015

Enhanced efficiency and refinement for award-winning premium compact SUV delivers CO2 emissions from 129g/km and up to 57.7mpg fuel economy for TD4 150PS four wheel drive

The Discovery Sport is equipped with a range of class-leading safety features, such as a first-in-segment Pedestrian Airbag, Autonomous Emergency Braking (both standard) and a suite of driver assistance features; all of which has led to the Discovery Sport being awarded with a Five Star Euro NCAP rating.

Pricing for the Discovery Sport featuring Ingenium engines remains unchanged whilst the new TD4 150PS engine brings a lower starting price of £30,695 for the manual five seat ‘SE' trim. Across the range service intervals have been extended from 16,000 to 21,000 miles lowering running costs over the vehicle's lifetime. This coupled with the financial benefits from lower tax and reduced fuel costs, reflects real-world savings for the customer. Furthermore, a number of retail finance options are available allowing customers to step into a new Discovery Sport from £299 per month for the entry-level SE specification.

In the UK, the revised model line-up adds HSE Black which builds on the existing HSE specification and features the popular Black Pack and privacy glass enhancing the visual appeal in response to positive customer feedback. The HSE Black Auto is priced at £41,250 on the road.

Land Rover's advanced new Ingenium engines are manufactured in the UK at the company's new state-of-the-art £500m Engine Manufacturing Centre in the West Midlands, which is set to produce 450,000 Ingenium engines each year.

Since its launch in September 2014, Land Rover UK has received more than 6,500 orders for the new Discovery Sport, and together with Jaguar Land Rover's range of Ingenium engine, have contributed more than £4bn to the UK economy and created 1,650 jobs.

The new Ingenium engine is available to order now with first customer deliveries commencing from September 2015.
