Land Rover Discovery Sport
Slotting between the Evoque and Discovery, the Discovery Sport is a compact luxury SUV that few customers are attracted to or even know about. Prices are up for the 2024 model year, which certainly won’t help. The interior has just been refreshed, however. In typical Land Rover fashion, this one boasts excellent off-road skills and solid towing capacity. Power comes from a turbocharged four-cylinder engine. On the flip side, reliability and depreciation are some legit concerns.
