JLR made a huge leap forward with the infotainment system in this car. On par with the best. The space in this vehicle is incredible. Combined with the strong engine, it feels very capable. Ride is good, fuel economy is good. Excellent cruising range. I have about 7000 miles under my belt. Build quality is below average to only fair, I am experiencing electrical issues and have 3 outstanding recalls that need to be resolved. Not sure why, but, the rear tailgate opens and closes on its own. Not while driving, however! Had an ongoing issue after a few weeks with CEL going on. They looked at it and said it was fixed by replacing an O2 sensor. Light came back on two weeks later. Then, on and off every once in awhile. Now, it is magically staying off. Visibility is outstanding. The start/stop feature requires a two step menu driven action to turn off. I really don't like it and it is a slight annoyance to have to go through this every time. Dealership sales experience was very good, service experience very bad. I am used to next day service with Lexus, with Land Rover, it is more like three week appointments. I knew this would be an issue, but, the car is so much more enjoyable than the Lexus GX we had, and, much better MPG and hugely bigger gas tank. Please note, this is the top of the line trim with the V6, not the four cylinder. There was not option to select the model, it is a P360, turbo six.

I just purchased a Land Rover Discovery and it is the best car yet! It drives smooth, has quick pickup, and is very spacious inside! I love the interior!

Huge Mistake

I traded my 2021 Atlas for a 2018 Discovery hse after seeing how cool my client’s new Discovery is. The leather, the several compartments and the tailgate guard that raises and lowers were what hooked me. A week after purchasing I noticed water droplets on the passenger side dash. Another week later during a heavy rain, I watched as water poured inside. I called Tom Wood Landrover three times and still haven’t spoken to a live person. Meanwhile, a mildew smell is now noticeable. Luckily, Carmax is giving me a full refund, but Im so disappointed that such a luxury suv that hits all the highend marks misses on such basic things! Im kicking myself for not keeping my Atlas.

Nightmare! 1-Star is too much

Quite possibly the worst purchase I’ve ever made! Stay away!! The list of issues is extensive and only got worse after the warranty expired. Two windshield replacement due to water leaks, console cooler stopped working at 50k miles and it was barely used. Oil leaks. Hood cable replaced twice before 60k miles, so many software updates to fix glitches that varied from screens just randomly going black, slow touchscreen response, freezing infotainment…more oil leaks. Sunroof motor replaced before 60kmiles, DEF errors galore!! This HSE Lux TD6 just eats through tires. But maybe Continental tires just suck. Seat belt assembly issues. More oil leaks. Its just an awful car! There’s a reason LR has two protective plates underneath. They don’t want you to see all the plastic connected to metal components. First and Last LR! Way too many issues for a 5yr old car.
