2023 Land Rover Discovery Trims Comparison

2023 Discovery trim level differences

The 2023 Land Rover Discovery is offered in four trim levels: S, R-Dynamic S, R-Dynamic HSE and the Metropolitan Edition. Two engine choices are available depending on the trim level you pick: a turbocharged four-cylinder engine that makes 296 horsepower and a turbocharged inline six-cylinder with a mild hybrid system that's good for 355 hp. All-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic are standard across the range. The Discovery has three rows of seating and provides seven-passenger seating. Standard and optional feature highlights include:

S
The base Discovery S trim comes with the four-cylinder engine (called the P300). Standard features include:

  • 20-inch wheels
  • Adaptive air suspension (adjusts to improve ride comfort and handling stability and can raise or lower the ride height of the vehicle)
  • Heated and power-folding exterior mirrors
  • Panoramic glass roof
  • LED headlights
  • Keyless entry and ignition
  • Power-adjustable, heated front seats
  • Power-adjustable steering wheel
  • Leather upholstery
  • Three-zone automatic climate control
  • Seven-passenger seating

Standard technology and advanced driver aids include:

  • 11.4-inch touchscreen display
  • Digital instrument cluster (standard on models produced later in the year)
  • 13-speaker Meridian audio system
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone connectivity
  • Navigation system
  • Wireless smartphone charging pad
  • Surround-view camera system (gives you a top-down view of the Discovery and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
  • Adaptive cruise control (adjusts speed to maintain a constant distance between the vehicle and the car in front)
  • Lane keeping assistance (steers the Discovery back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)
  • Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning (alerts you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while in reverse)
  • Automatic emergency braking (warns if a front impact is imminent and applies the brakes if you don't respond in time)
  • Parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible in front of or behind the vehicle when parking)

R-Dynamic S
The Discovery S R-Dynamic has a few styling differences compared to the base S but is otherwise similar in standard and optional features. You can also upgrade to the 355-hp turbocharged six-cylinder engine (P360).

R-Dynamic HSE
The R-Dynamic HSE trim comes standard with the 355-hp six-cylinder engine. In addition to the S' features and R-Dynamic S' styling upgrades, you get:

  • 22-inch wheels
  • Hands-free tailgate
  • Upgraded LED headlights
  • Digital instrument cluster
  • Upgraded power-adjustable front seats
  • Heated and ventilated front seats
  • Heated rear seats
  • Power-folding third-row seats

  • Upgraded 15-speaker Meridian audio system

Notable optional packages for the R-Dynamic S with the six-cylinder engine and the R-Dynamic HSE include:

  • Towing package (tow hitch plus other towing-related enhancements)
  • Advanced Off-Road Capability package (low-range gearing and other off-road-related enhancements)

Metropolitan Edition
The range-topping trim builds off of the R-Dynamic HSE and adds:

  • Unique 22-inch wheels

    • Heated windshield spray nozzle (prevents washer fluid from freezing)
    • Headlight washers (only on the R-Dynamic HSE and Metropolitan Edition trims)

    • Four-zone automatic climate control
    • Cabin air purifier

Which 2023 Discovery trim does Edmunds recommend?

The R-Dynamic HSE model with its standard turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine (P360) is the trim we recommend. In addition to the long list of features you get from the lower trims, the HSE adds some desirable extras such as upgraded leather upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, and an upgraded 15-speaker Meridian audio system. This trim also gives you the option of adding many stand-alone features and several packages including the Towing package and the Advanced Off-Road Capability package.
