Updates give Disco Sport a new lease of life

Special editions, bigger touchscreen and styling tweaks give long-running Land Rover SUV a boost

THE Land Rover Discovery Sport is more than a decade old, but the versatile seven-seat family SUV isn't being forced into retirement. Instead it’s been updated for the 2026 model year with a more defined look, a bigger touchscreen and two new special editions.

Dynamic S is now the entry-level Discovery Sport spec, which Land Rover says gives the SUV a “dynamic and purposeful look” with a gloss-black finish on the grille, wheelarches, side cladding, lower bumpers and other trim parts, plus dark ‘Discovery’ lettering on the bonnet. There are new alloy wheel designs, too.

Every Discovery Sport now gets an 11.4-inch curved touchscreen running Land Rover's Pivi Pro infotainment system from the Range Rover, which also means wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come as standard. A fully digital

instrument cluster and gearshift paddles behind the steering wheel feature as well.
