Land Rover offers a 9-speed automatic transmission in all variants of its entry-level model.

The next set of changes are concentrated towards the HSE Luxury trim of the 2019 Discovery Sport. Land Rover is now offering it with a Dynamic Design Pack, which brings in a host of exterior styling enhancements such as a body styling kit, chrome tailpipe finisher, Black Pack with a black grille and a black rear licence plate plinth, and red ‘Sport’ badge. The company has also upgraded the Touch Pro infotainment system to bring it in line with the features on offer with the Touch Pro Duo system.
