Test Drive: Land Rover Discovery 4 V6 HSE Black Edition - INAUTONEWS
We’ve tested the new Land Rover Discovery 4 V6 HSE Black Edition. The Land Rover Discovery has been in production since 1989 but purists will always go for the Defender, if they’re a Land Rover fan, while businessmen will not give their Range Rover away. Our test vehicle was called the HSE Black Edition , for no obvious reasons, because the predominant color was not black anywhere in the cabin and especially on its exterior design. The Land Rover Discovery 4 is actually based on the Discovery 3. It is an updated version which is using the same Integrated Body Frame structure, bringing updated lighting cluster, new bumpers and some fresh touches in the cabin. It has been introduced back in 2009 and designed by Gerry McGovern and, believe it or not, it is closely related to the Range Rover Sport. In North America this is also known as the LR4 and it is bringing four engines to the lineup, the 2. 7L Ford TD V6, the 3. 0L Ford TD V6, the AJ 3. 0L V6 and the 5. 0L V8 made by Jaguar. Transmission options include the 6-speed manual, 6-speed automatic and 8-speed automatic, all of them signed by ZF. Engine and Transmission. Source: www.inautonews.com
