What makes the Land Rover Discovery Metropolitan Edition special?
As previously mentioned, the Metropolitan Edition will be built on the R-Dynamic HSE specification, but it will add a series of technologies that will increase both the comfort and the convenience provided by the Discovery family.
In order to easily distinguish it from the rest of the lineup, the Metropolitan Edition will offer Bright Atlas detailing for the grille and Discovery lettering. This feature matches perfectly with the lower bumper inserts painted in a very cool Hakuba Silver.
The new Discovery Metropolitan Edition will ride on a new set of 22-inch Diamond Turned alloy wheels with Gloss Grey detailing.
They combine perfectly with the black Land Rover brake calipers.
As far as standard features go, the 2023 Discovery Metropolitan Edition will offer:
- Privacy Glass
- Sliding Panoramic Roof.
- Head-up Display
- Heated steering wheel
- Wireless phone charging
- Front cooler compartment
- Four-zone climate control
For the interior Land Rover opted for a Titanium Mesh trim detailing.
Customers will have a choice of two engines: the D300 Ingenium diesel or the P360 Ingenium petrol, both featuring 48V Mild-Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV) technology.
The D300 engine delivers a total of 295 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque, while the P360 comes with an output of 355 horsepower and 368 pound-feet of torque. The model offers a best-in-class towing capacity of 8,200 pounds.
