“It fills me with pride to have seen the first new Discovery Sport coming off the line here at out World-class Halewood production facility. We are now even more excited to hand the keys over to the crew at Virgin Galactic. The new car embodies Land Rover’s spirit of Above and Beyond, so it’s fitting that it will be used by a similarly pioneering company in Virgin Galactic” said Murray Dietsch, Director of Land Rover Programmes.

Land Rover revealed the new Discovery Sport though an online film shot at Spaceport America in New Mexico, USA, last month. The launch of the car was paired with the announcement of Land Rover’s Galactic Discovery competition, giving four friends the chance to win a once-in-a-lifetime trip to space with Virgin Galactic.

The club is currently based in High Wycombe, but will be relocating to the Ricoh Arena in Coventry by the end of the year.

We are proud of our heritage in the region and already support a number of local community projects, so with Wasps confirming its move to Ricoh Arena, it offered us a fantastic opportunity to further strengthen our community links, engage our thousands of employees and Land Rover owners who are also rugby fans. We are excited by the club’s ambitions on and off the field, and look forward to the state of our partnership”

Land Rover Discovery Sport


Land Rover Discovery Sport
  • Discovery Sport unveiled in dramatic dynamic fashion on an 80-metre barge on the River Seine in central Paris
  • Surprise appearance from supermodel and actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley  
  • Unveil stunt featured seven pairs of giant Wellington boots to bring to life Discovery Sport's "5+2" seven seat versatility
  • Discovery Sport to take over entire Land Rover stand during Paris Motor Show press day on 2nd October

The new Land Rover Discovery Sport made a uniquely British public debut today, ahead of the Paris Motor Show. A pair of Discovery Sport vehicles performed a dramatic dynamic debut aboard a giant barge on the River Seine to mark the arrival of the brand's new premium compact SUV.

The two Discovery Sports put on a true show of Land Rover capability, flanked by seven pairs of brightly coloured, giant-sized Wellington boots - created to represent the family-friendly SUV's versatile 5+2 seating layout, along with Land Rover's unique take on outdoor life.


Fresh from the runways of Paris Fashion Week, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley made a surprise appearance on Land Rover's own floating catwalk. Experiencing the new Land Rover's premium interior design and dynamic capability first hand, the British supermodel and actress played a starring role in the unveil, causing a media frenzy as she posed next to the Discovery Sport and a pair of 4.5-metre Union Jack patterned Wellington boots.  

After revealing Discovery Sport to the world's media for the first time, the 80-metre long barge continued to turn heads on its attention-grabbing journey down the River Seine, cruising past Parisian landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower and Notre-Dame Cathedral.

Highlighting the significance of the new premium compact SUV, Discovery Sport will be the only vehicle displayed on the Land Rover stand throughout the first media preview day of the Paris Motor Show (2nd October).

Discovery Sport was revealed digitally at Virgin Galactic's Spaceport America facility in New Mexico, USA, on 3rd September - where Land Rover announced details of its Galactic Discovery competition to send four friends into space. The competition has attracted global media interest and is open for entry until November 21st via www.landrover.com/gotospace.


"Designed and engineered to be the world's most capable and versatile premium compact SUV, this is a vehicle that will appeal not only to existing Land Rover customers but to a whole new group of people who may never have considered Land Rover before," said Gerry McGovern, Land Rover Design Director and Chief Creative Officer. "It is quite simply the most accomplished vehicle in its segment."

Land Rover sales continue to go from strength to strength after a record year for vehicle sales in 2013. Last year Land Rover set a new full-year sales benchmark, retailing 348,338 vehicles - up 15% - and this year looks set to be another record breaker.


Discovery Sport will be produced at Land Rover's award-winning manufacturing facility at Halewood in Liverpool and go on sale in 2015, alongside the existing seven-seat Land Rover Discovery, in more than 170 markets worldwide.
