The outer seats have Isofix points, but when each is carrying a high-backed child seat, an adult can barely squeeze between, which is disappointing in such a large car. In the middle row, there’s lots of room, plenty of storage areas and a couple of handy USB charging ports. Only a few bags of shopping will fit in the remaining space. The problem then is that with all seven seats in use, the boot goes from huge (1,231 litres) to snug. Adults can get in there easily enough and with the middle row of seats adjusted slightly there’s a fair amount of knee and legroom. (Buyers can choose to have just five seats, should they wish.) Better still, those in the rearmost, third row of seats (which lift out of the floor manually, or at the touch of a button, or via a smartphone app, if you pay extra) don’t have to be children to relax in comfort. The company claims it can seat seven people in comfort, and sure enough, it can.

These sorts of SUVs are some of the largest and most expensive money can buy. But then it needed to be. In 2019, there are desirable and capable cars to choose from, including the accomplished Audi Q7, sporty BMW X5, new Mercedes GLE and excellent Volvo XC90. Much was changed for this, the fifth generation of Discovery. And, of course, in a world of copycat SUVs, it comes with the kudos and authenticity of the Land Rover badge, the Levis of the 4x4 world. It offers seven seats, a huge boot and go-almost-anywhere capability. ![]() The Discovery is the largest, most practical car in Land Rover’s range, designed to be an unfaltering workhorse for families who have a thirst for adventure to rival David Attenborough. ![]()
