2026 Land Rover Discovery
Car and Driver says Land Rover has launched two new special-edition models for 2026: the P360 Gemini replaces the P360 Dynamic SE with a two-tone paint job, a Narvik gloss-black roof, unique 21-inch wheels, and a cooled center console; the P360 Tempest is the new range-topping model with Petra Copper Gloss accents, matte-finished paint, special badging, fancier leather, and 22-inch wheels with Petra Copper accents. MSRP runs $62,050-$85,350. MotorTrend says last year's powertrains carry over unchanged, with all 2026 Discovery models running an 8-speed automatic and AWD, towing up to 8,200 pounds, and a base 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making 296 hp and 295 lb-ft; MotorTrend says it's still a niche choice, more refined on pavement than its rugged sibling the Defender, appealing most to buyers who prioritize comfort and off-road capability; MotorTrend lists top-ranked competitors as the Volvo XC90, Lexus GX, and Jeep Grand Cherokee.
