![]() The second row is split 40/20/40, but folding the middle seat makes for an awkward stumble over it to get to the third row. The opening they make is small, and the step-in height is pretty tall for smaller kids to manage on their own. Things are less rosy when you head to the third row, starting with getting back there: Moving the seats to climb into the third row is a slow process, carried out via buttons on the sides of the seats. The tablet system coordinates well with the Discovery’s available onboard 4G Wi-Fi hot spot, which is capable of linking up to eight devices. There’s also an available folding table, coat hanger and hook these accessories range from around $60 to $175 each. Click and Go accessories are available for purchase at Land Rover retailers and include several different tablet holders designed to accommodate a variety of devices. Kids will appreciate the nine available USB ports peppered throughout the cabin, as well as the SUV’s available Click and Go tablet holders, which are incorporated into the front seatbacks. Only two of ’s car seats fit on the bench, but we were really close to being able to fit three car seats. The second row also does well when it comes to kids - two car seats fit with ease thanks to exposed lower Latch anchors and accessible top tether anchors. Some competitors, such as the Acura MDX and Volvo XC90, offer captain’s chairs for the second row. Headroom and legroom are great for a couple of adults, but a bench seat is the only configuration. Land Rover says it added more padding to the second-row seats for 2021, and they’re properly comfy. Other new highlights for the cabin are a 12.3-inch digital gauge display and a full-color head-up display ahead of the driver, both of which are helpful additions. I found it fairly accurate and less annoying than some of the regular controls. ![]() I had better luck using Land Rover’s voice recognition system, which can control some of the car’s media, navigation, phone and climate functions. Many functions can also be done via the touchscreen, but navigating to the climate menu takes too many steps. Pressing the buttons next to the dials takes more force than in any vehicle I’ve ever been in you have to really lean into the buttons to make something happen. For example, you push the dial to turn up the heated seats, pull the dial to adjust the fan speed and spin the dial to turn up the temperature. You can push, pull or spin the main dials depending on what you need to do. The climate controls below the screen are also needlessly complicated. Lastly, the volume knob is in an awkward spot ahead of the shifter, and there’s no tuning knob. My problem with it, though, is its response time: The system is slow to engage or switch tasks, and connecting to Android Auto took many seconds longer than I’ve experienced in other vehicles. It has large icons, crisp graphics and an easy menu structure. There are some new features in the cabin this year, and I’m mixed on a couple of them.įirst, a large, 11.4-inch multimedia system sits in a great place on the dash for easy visibility and usability. The cabin has very little bling, but rather than boring, it presents as understated. Highlights include my test car’s rich leather seating, with surfaces in a Light Oyster and Ebony color palette. The cabin’s streamlined, no-nonsense design and premium materials combine for a lovely look and feel. ![]() We are proud to have thousands of parts available to keep your Rover running, allowing you to explore and enjoy the world in your favorite vehicle.2021 Land Rover Discovery | photo by Jennifer Geiger Our promise: Help you Maintain, Explore and Enjoy your Rover, wherever the road or trail leads you!
