As Land Rover celebrates 25 years of the Discovery, the brand has revealed the new features to be found on the 2015 model year, which, slightly confusingly, is now on sale in preparation for September deliveries.

The most obvious addition is the arrival of two new trim levels.  The entry-level GS specification is replaced by SE (£41,595), which also brings with it extra equipment such as cruise control, automatic headlights and wipers and auto dimming rear view mirror.

XS specification has also been axed, making way for the SE Tech trim level (£47,495), which adds xenon headlights, while HSE models (£54,495) come with 20in alloys as standard, as opposed to the previous 19in standard.  The option of Grand Black Lacquer wood trim and the leather-wrapped steering wheel taken from the Discovery XXV Special Edition is also available on SE Tech vehicles.

In-car tech has been upgraded with the new Land Rover InControl Apps system, an option which compliments the existing infotainment system to provide access to compatible smartphone apps optimised for in-car use.  Developed in tandem with leading app developers, the InControl system can be used with the latest phones with both iOS and Android operating systems.  To pair a device, the owner must download Land Rover InControl Apps to their smartphone from either the Apple App Store or Google Play.  Once the phone is connected to the car’s USB port, the owner can simply touch the InControl Apps icon on the screen and select the desired app from the menu.

“To mark 25 years of Discovery, Land Rover offered more premium luxury in the form of the XXV Special Edition. Striking attributes from this anniversary derivative are now being made available across the range for our customers to bring that level of heightened luxury into their Discovery of choice,” said Phil Popham, Jaguar Land Rover Group’s marketing director. “InControl Apps adds another dimension to the Discovery’s attributes and another meaning to work-life balance by enabling safe and efficient access to essential smartphone content and in-car apps from the vehicle’s touchscreen.”
