DISCOVERY 2026: EXPLORING THE NEW DISCOVERY S, LANDMARK AND TEMPEST LINE-UP
The 2026 Land Rover Discovery range introduces a refreshed line-up designed to offer families even greater choice, combining seven-seat practicality, luxury comfort and all-terrain capability. With the addition of the new Discovery Landmark, alongside the flagship Discovery Tempest and entry-level Discovery S, customers can now choose from three distinct interpretations of Land Rover's original family SUV.
Since its launch in 1989, Discovery has been synonymous with versatility, blending luxury, space and capability in a vehicle designed for family adventures. The latest range builds on that heritage with updated specifications, exclusive design details and technology designed to make every journey easier, whether it's the daily school run, a weekend getaway or a long-distance road trip.
What is new for the 2026 Discovery range?
The biggest change to the Discovery line-up is the introduction of the new Discovery Landmark, a special edition that celebrates the qualities that have defined Discovery for more than three decades.
Joining the Landmark are the highly specified Discovery Tempest and the versatile Discovery S, creating a three-model range that caters to different customer needs while retaining the practicality and capability that have always distinguished Discovery from other luxury SUVs.
Across the range, customers can also choose from new colours, wheel designs and interior finishes, giving the Discovery family a more contemporary appearance while maintaining its unmistakable design.
Discovery Landmark: a celebration of Discovery heritage
The new Discovery Landmark has been created to showcase the versatility and adventurous spirit at the heart of the Discovery name.
One of its most distinctive features is the introduction of Tasman Blue, a new paint finish exclusive to the Landmark model. Inspired by the original Clearwater Blue colour offered on early Discovery vehicles, it provides a modern interpretation of a key part of the model's heritage.
Unique Landmark branding appears throughout the vehicle, including the treadplates, centre console, puddle lamps and B-pillar detailing. These subtle references celebrate Discovery's long history while giving the vehicle a more distinctive identity.
The exterior design is further enhanced by Graphite Atlas detailing on the grille, side vents and Discovery badging, alongside Carpathian Grey skid plates and new 21-inch alloy wheels finished in Dark Agate Grey.
Inside, the Discovery Landmark combines luxury materials with practical features designed for family life. Tech Velour trim, brushed aluminium finishes and branded interior details create a refined environment, while a sliding panoramic roof and centre-console refrigerator add comfort and convenience for longer journeys.
Discovery Tempest: the most luxurious Discovery ever
Positioned as the flagship of the range, Discovery Tempest represents the most highly specified Discovery available.
The model continues to distinguish itself through exclusive design touches and enhanced levels of luxury. For 2026, Tempest introduces a new Borasco Grey exterior finish, available only on this model and joining existing exclusive colour options.
A matte protective film is fitted as standard, enhancing the vehicle's appearance while helping to protect the paintwork. Signature Tempest branding can be found throughout the vehicle, while distinctive Petra Copper accents add contrast across the roof, exterior detailing and bespoke 22-inch alloy wheels.
The cabin offers a more sophisticated and contemporary design, with new interior colour combinations and Extended Windsor leather finishes providing an elevated sense of craftsmanship and comfort.
For families looking for maximum luxury without sacrificing practicality, Discovery Tempest brings together luxury materials, generous space and everyday usability in a uniquely capable seven-seat SUV.
Discovery S: everyday family versatility
The Discovery S serves as the entry point to the Discovery range while retaining the qualities that have made the vehicle a favourite among families.
Designed to balance comfort, practicality and value, it offers a spacious seven-seat interior with Duoleather seating available in Ebony or Light Oyster finishes.
A wide range of family-friendly features come as standard, including wireless phone charging, multiple USB charging points and flexible storage solutions throughout the cabin. These features help ensure that passengers remain connected and comfortable on journeys of every length.
For many buyers, Discovery S provides everything needed from a luxury family SUV, combining practical everyday usability with Discovery's renowned capability.
Why Discovery remains one of the most versatile seven-seat SUVs
Discovery has built its reputation on offering a unique combination of space, comfort and capability. Unlike many luxury SUVs, it is designed to perform just as confidently off-road as it does on the motorway.
Advanced technologies such as Terrain Response 2 automatically adapt vehicle settings to changing driving conditions, helping optimise traction and control across a wide range of surfaces. All Terrain Progress Control further supports off-road driving by maintaining a steady speed in challenging conditions.
With a maximum wading depth of 900mm and a towing capacity of up to 3,500kg, Discovery remains one of the most capable vehicles in its class. Advanced Tow Assist also helps simplify tricky reversing manoeuvres when towing trailers, horseboxes or caravans.
Whether transporting a growing family, towing equipment for outdoor adventures or exploring more remote destinations, Discovery continues to deliver the flexibility that has defined the model for generations.
Accessory packs designed for every adventure
To help owners tailor their Discovery to their lifestyle, a selection of curated accessory packs is available.
Families travelling with pets can choose the For Dogs pack, while cycling enthusiasts can equip their vehicle with the Biking Adventures pack. For coastal getaways, the Beach Days pack adds practical storage and vehicle protection features, while the Road Trip pack focuses on comfort and convenience during longer journeys.
For winter sports enthusiasts, the Snow Days pack provides accessories designed to make transporting skis and snowboards easier while helping protect the vehicle from harsh weather conditions.
These accessories allow customers to personalise their Discovery around the activities and adventures that matter most to them.
Safety, comfort and performance
The latest Discovery range also introduces a Driver Attention Monitor for the first time. Using a driver-facing camera, the system helps monitor attentiveness and can provide alerts if it detects signs that the driver's focus may have diminished.
Power comes from a choice of six-cylinder Ingenium engines, including D249 and D350 diesel variants, alongside the P360 petrol option in selected markets. These powertrains provide the blend of performance, refinement and efficiency expected from a modern luxury SUV.
Which Discovery model is right for you?
The 2026 Discovery line-up offers three distinct approaches to family SUV ownership.
The Discovery S focuses on everyday practicality and value, making it an ideal introduction to the range. The new Discovery Landmark adds exclusive styling, enhanced features and heritage-inspired design details, while Discovery Tempest delivers the highest levels of luxury and specification available on a Discovery.
Whichever model customers choose, every Discovery continues to deliver what has made it a benchmark family SUV for more than 35 years: seven-seat versatility, luxurious comfort and the confidence to go virtually anywhere.
