2016 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 Landmark LE Auto Santorini Black

D5 D4 comaparisons

Except tailgate and price what else is different.

D5 higher top speed, lower Co2 emmissions, lower overall weight, better wading depth, better ramp over and departure angles, 5kg more roof weight, less height,

D4 smaller turning circle, more luggage capacity, better approach angle, shorter in length, less in width, better obstacle difference in Off rd mode, (maybe extended ride height not available on D5) more headroom,

Anything else

D4 Landmark MY16 Santorini Black THE LAST
D4 HSE MY12 Marmais Teal: Gone. Missed a lot!
Freelander 2 SD HSE MY11 Silver:Thankfully gone.

2016 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 HSE Lux Auto Corris Grey

D5 Better load carrying capacity on roof but no Expo Rack available and the roof bars don't make it look cool like the D4 ones do they are two high:?

Rear Aircon has returned on the D5 8)

D5 is high but no ladder option

D5 has HDMI inputs

a truly first world problem i know but I'm excited.

D4 has better load space access (its taller and square).

D4 has jetboil storage vs D5 can store 5 iPads. MY06 S - Gone but not forgotten
MY12 HSE - Gone
MY16 HSE Luxury - Sold
MY20 D5 HSE - Sold

Does it? I've only seen mention of the air suspension. Cheers Ian

I saw this in the promo vid on YouTube. There might be air assistance in addition but those look like coil springs. I did notice a raise/lower button on another vid so perhaps some height adjustment is possible.

2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE Auto Bonatti Grey

It looks like one needs to take the 6 cylinder versions (diesel or petrol) in Sweden to get air suspension...

Edit: yeah I'm living in Sweden now, and missing my D3...

D5 is 3,170KG, that's a bit of a hike up isn't it?
