The Land Rover Discovery Sport Landmark edition features a unique colour and trim combination, and it is equipped with the best of the Land Rover Discovery Sport range. Customers can choose from three exterior colours for the special edition model: Narvik Black, Corris Grey, and Yulong White. Irrespective of the exterior colour selected, the roof is painted in a contrasting Carpathian Grey colour. Graphite Atlas exterior accents and 19-inch Style 521 ‘Mantis’ design wheels finished in Gloss Dark Grey round up the exterior.

Inside, the Land Rover Discovery Sport Landmark edition has Ebony grained leather seats, Ebony headliner and dark grey aluminium finishers around the centre stack. Two engine options are available: 2.0-litre Td4 diesel and 2.0-litre Si4 petrol. Both the engines are from the Ingenium family.

The diesel engine produces 180 PS and 430 Nm of torque, while the petrol engine develops 240 PS and 365 Nm of torque. The diesel engine is coupled to a 6-speed manual transmission or a 9-speed automatic transmission. The petrol engine is available with only a 9-speed automatic transmission.
