@@StephenFogarty2023 Thanks! The lease is almost up in the Summer and I'm debating on getting either the Bronco 4 door, Defender or a Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, or a 4Runner TRD Pro. What would you get? How about you @joeraiti?
@@vadim9342 they r all good vehicles. All have pros and cons. Do u actually go off roading ? The Wrangler has least daily Driver comfort levels, but maybe u really like it ?

I have a 2017 Land Rover Disco Sport and love it to death. I've been waiting for my man Joe's review of the 2021 with the new tech package to see if it was worth upgrading. As usual, he didn't let me down!
I also have a 2017 DS, and love it. I do like the interior upgrades and new Pivi Pro multi function display etc. I would def get the fully digital Virtual Cockpit instrumentation display. 👍👍
Hi! I have a Discovery Sport SE 2021 with the latest PiviPro infotaiment system and I can assure you that is worth the money! Also the digital instrument cluster is working like a charm and is looking very good (you can also customize it however you like). As about the rest of the tech integrated in the car, there are a lot of. Just one, for example: the clear sight mirror which features a digital display for the rear rooftop camera - very useful when you have your vision obstructed by people in the back seats or the trunk is full with stuff. And so on...😀
Boy... Joe you got the energy. I appreciate your videos and good work love your channel. I like the Land Rover though really not into those type cars always be positive with the reviews I write and comment when watching looking at every detail it's a beautiful SUV surely with the features and options believe would be worth something.
some of his info isn't correct, 2020 is last year of the 286hp engine option, which only comes with the HSE. For 2021 the only engine is the new 246hp engine.
Land Rover out here tweaking their formula and keeping the Discovery Sport fresh and ready for the wild urban jungles!!! I'm digging the changes they made here Joe. Personally I'd prefer the redesigned MDX because let's just be honest, a good amount of these rigs with all the offroad prowess they've been blessed with won't see any serious offroading. Thanks for the review here Joe and Lori!!! Y'all out here working hard all day long!!! #RaitisRides #OnThrottle #ToTheDoorPanel #TwinkiesForDays #OnThrottleAgain #LoriGotAngles #CameraQueen #Zonkmeister #OnThrottleAllOverThePlace #IfYoureReadyImReady #LandRover #Discovery_Sport #446k_Subscribers #500kAndBeyond
Nice video JOE..good job LORI with the camera... This vehicle is not what it used to be...the competition has caught up to it...it still has the off-road going for it...BUT, not much else after that..
Joe I'm sorry i have to confess I been watching other automobile you tubers . I just had to do it ,I had to find out what was on the other side . I feel so cheap so dirty . Please have ne back your the best.
You said 2 engine choices are available but you only mentioned one Also, what type of fuel injection set up is in each engine, milti port or direct injection??
Joe, the bonnet panel is not decorative, its a pedestrian airbag cover, if you look at the rear of the panel by the windscreen you will see "airbag" embossed on each end
I’m totally digging the exterior but not so much the interior. Totally love the color and wish I’d see more like it on other vehicles. Maybe the interior is better in person?
Unrelated, but Joe, if you remember me talking about the Kia Stinger GT... well I just FINALLY got one ☺️ Ceramic silver with red leather (and of course the twin turbo V6) 😁
Not arguing particulars but if you were driving a Festiva in 1981, there had to have been some time travel involved. As an aside, my 78 _Fiesta_ still ran well after the engine block cracked.
@@2W3X4YZ5 Yes it did. The thing couldn't have weighed more than 2000 lbs. It had cardboard for interior door panels basically. It pulled like a freight train in the lower gears. Fun cars.
Great review as usual. Guy in the background at 6:06 realized he should stay hidden before Joe goes “full throttle” on him. Also noticed the center console had some clips(?) under the lid. Just a cool organizing feature if I’m seeing things right.
Just returned ours off lease. It was SOOOOOOOO problematic. Always in the service shop. These cars look and feel so good, but driving the loaner all the time doesn’t.
@@kbankskouture7672 Electronics. Doors wouldn’t unlock or open, infotainment wouldn’t turn on. Car would randomly start after walking away. Heavy shifts from the transmission at low speeds. Felt like we were hit from behind.
Don't know about the export version but in the UK version the panel at the rear of the bonnet (Hood) you say seperate section is a pedestrian airbag to stop head injury with impact on the windscreen.
So true.... such a shame the 2021 remodel of the EWagon looks like an Outback. The one in this vid is prob the last of the great classic EWagon design.
Always enjoy your reviews. I know you're in Florida, but here in the midwest we're very interested in heated steering wheels. Could you mention if a car has that option, for those of us with frozen Twinkies?
I had my Range Rover in for service two days ago and they gave me one of these as a loaner. (2020) I hated everything about it except the head lights. Horrible ride and I hated the look. It felt the same as a rental Nissan Vogue we rented in the past. A very long pause when the auto start/stop kicks back on after throttle! I have a Range Rover Sport currently that I am about to trade, but noticed the drop in the luxury feel getting out of my sport into this within 1 minute of driving. Mind blowing. Soooo glad I was able to drive one, but it’s a terrible offering. Might be good for camping of off-roading.
Great review Joe. It looks stunning in Portofino Blue, with the other trims in black. Disco Sport was first released in UK in 2014. Is the car u tested an S or SE or HSE model ? A fantastic full digital Virtual Cockpit instrument display is normally standard on higher spec models for 2021. Or optional on lower spec models. I’m zonking the dealer for not ordering the vehicle with the Virtual Cockpit instrumentation ! Silly of them not to ! For better performance, I would pick the higher output engine, which is probably standard with higher spec models. I’d guess that this was an entry level “ S “ model. Sport mode access is via a button next to the gear lever, or by moving the position of the gear lever ? Ventilated / cool seats are available. Not standard on lower spec models. BTW Under the black part of bonnet near the windscreen is a “ pedestrian impact “ airbag that pops out to stop a pedestrian hitting the windscreen. Not sure if this DS was a seven seater ? U did not lift up the rubber mat in the boot... Very roomy car and fantastic for anyone not wanting a huge size SUV. And thanks to Lori for her great camera work. 👍👍
Nope LOL! I was actually helping Victor out because he had lost his job because of the pandemic. and was looking for something while he was working with me.
Both the towing capacity and cargo room numbers provided are way off...not sure where they are from but max tow capacity is about 2000 pounds lower than mentioned and cargo capacity is also significantly smaller than mentioned.
This is beautiful. You wouldn’t be watching if you really cared about reliability _YESSUHNO?_ My only real zonk is that to me it still looks a lot like an Explorer or Aviator. Specs are competent with the class leaders. I’d like to see it off road. I think your drivability experience with this one is more due to the transmission than other factors. Wouldn’t this one be SWEET with diesel I4 and V6 options? Thanks for another great review, Sir. Cheers.
Have to agree, putting just a 2 litre engine in Suv's is pretty lame. You need at least a V6 punching 300hp. It would be fine in a plug in hybrid, but underpowered as a standalone PowerPoint. Great videos btw, and I've learned a new word in zonk!
Beautiful car, I absolutely hate how range rover Robs you from convenient luxury features such as ventilated seats and etc. But this is one of the rovers I would buy
Glad I hit the bell way back when you started! Land Rover has a nice looking vehicle here. Too bad the "check wallet light" comes on as soon as the warranty runs out!
no replacement for displacement, I own a 2008 LR3 V8 SE and she's a beast. Plus I love the air ride and the room inside plus the sunroof and two moon roofs the new discovery is not worth the money.
Nice looking SUV,,, All show and absolutely NO GO!!! Who wants to pay over 50K for a gutless SUV. Imagine if you had a family in there. Great Job Laurie!!! Hope that is the spelling.
Hi! I have a Discovery Sport SE 2021, the color is Byron Blue (I love it 😀) with the latest PiviPro infotaiment. Unfortunately there is no CD player option but you have two usb ports for the front passengers, one integrated in the main console near the wireless charging dock and the other one is in the central console near the 12V charging port. Also, as shown in the video, there is another one in the trunk on left side. So, as you can see, there is no need for a CD option 😀. All the best!
@@halvey123 I don't know what Subaru or Honda are offering (and I respect people's choices) but I really don't feel the need for a Cd player in my Disco S. All my music is either on my phone or on my half an inch USB (thousands of songs :). Regarding the driving experience, I have to admit that I am not fully used to it (I just bought my car 1 and 1/2 month ago) but until now I really like how smooth and quiet it is. For me at least it is a real pleasure to drive it. Before Disco S I had a Range Rover Sport 2008 HSE - 3.6 l, TDV8, 272 HP. Comparing the two cars, Disco is a little bit lazy when it comes to acceleration, it's having a bit of lag, but it's not disturbing (at least not for me, even if I was used to the almost instant power and acceleration of the Range Rover). But, once you push the pedal a little bit more, the 2.0 l engine with 4 cyilinders (250 HP) is starting to show it's capabilities. It doesn't roar like the Range Rover when you accelerate, in fact is more quieter. The car is very stable on the road, the electronic assisted direction is a bit "too" assisted, but maybe it has to be this way, considering the wieght of the car (2105 kg). Untill now, I drove my Disco S on all kind of roads - national and city roads, highway, country roads and not at last, some off road on snow (about 50-60 cm deep) and mud. For the moment I only have winter tyres which were not the best suited for the mudy parts of the my off road adventure, but still, I managed to get where I wanted to go (with some difficulties due to the lack of tyres specially designed for mud). The only downside of the Disco S so far, is the start/stop system. It's driving me crazy! It's flawed designed - there are much much better start/stop systems on other cars than this one! For this reason, the first thing that I do when I get in the car, after I start the engine, is to disable the start/stop function! It is very anoying! But, overall, I am very pleased with the car performaces both on and off road.
My 2017 DS has been perfect since taking delivery in

Now over 50,000 miles.

Great review Joe.
It looks stunning in

Disco Sport was first released in UK in 2014.

A fantastic full digital Virtual Cockpit instrument display is normally standard on higher spec models for 2021.
Or optional on lower spec models.

Comparing the two cars, Disco is a little bit lazy when it comes to acceleration, it's having a bit of lag, but it's not disturbing (at least not for me, even if I was used to the almost instant power and acceleration of the Range Rover). But, once you push the pedal a little bit more, the 2.0 l engine with 4 cyilinders (250 HP) is starting to show it's capabilities. It doesn't roar like the Range Rover when you accelerate, in fact is more quieter. The car is very stable on the road, the electronic assisted direction is a bit "too" assisted, but maybe it has to be this way, considering the wieght of the car (2105 kg). Untill now, I drove my Disco S on all kind of roads - national and city roads, highway, country roads and not at last, some off road on snow (about 50-60 cm deep) and mud. For the moment I only have winter tyres which were not the best suited for the mudy parts of the my off road adventure, but still, I managed to get where I wanted to go (with some difficulties due to the lack of tyres specially designed for mud).
The only downside of the Disco S so far, is the start/stop system. It's driving me crazy! It's flawed designed - there are much much better start/stop systems on other cars than this one! For this reason, the first thing that I do when I get in the car, after I start the engine, is to disable the start/stop function! It is very anoying!
But, overall, I am very pleased with the car performaces both on and off road.
