DRIVING TECHNOLOGY
Terrain Response™
No one knows more about off-road driving than Land Rover, and we´ve built that vast experience into our unique Terrain Response™ system (standard on all
7-seat versions). It makes it easy to drive confidently in Discovery 3 – just turn the dial to the appropriate icon and you´ll have all our driving expertise at your fingertips. Terrain Response™ works whether you´re cruising on tarmac, driving over deep ruts, grass, snow, mud or sand. When you turn the dial, Discovery 3´s engine, transmission, suspension and Traction settings are all reconfigured to deliver the best possible driving experience.
Ride, handling, control and balance are all exceptional due to independent front and rear suspension. Computer controlled cross-linked air springs over each wheel supply further levels of on-road refinement and composure under all road conditions, helping maintain a level ride height irrespective of load (standard on all 7-seat versions). Our system also enables exceptional wheel articulation for outstanding off-road handling and Traction.
Intelligent auto or manual transmission
Discovery 3´s advanced 6-speed automatic gearbox features adaptive mapping, giving it an ´intelligent´ capability to adapt itself to your driving approach. This gearbox features CommandShift™ which gives the driver full manual control of gear selection when required. A smooth shifting 6-speed manual gearbox is also available with the TDV6 diesel engine.
