from LR press releases:

The unveiling of the latest Discovery marks the second new vehicle launch in a matter of months by Land Rover. Like the all-new Range Rover,
launched to considerable critical acclaim at the start of 2002, the new Discovery is instantly recognisable by its dynamic new �face�, dominated by stylish and highly efficient twin pocket headlamps and a revised front bumper assembly. With improvements to on-road driveability, quality, reliability and off-road ability, the changes to the latest Discovery go far deeper than its aesthetic alterations. Enhancements to the chassis have improved the on-road ride
and handling while new fabrics and colours give the interior a new ambience and spacious feel. Greater attention to refinement has produced a vehicle that�s quieter than before, while improvements in build quality will enhance
the ownership experience.

Discovery builds on the formidable reputation of its tough forebears with extra weapons in its 4x4 armoury. These include the availability of a locking centre differential to improve even further its remarkable ability in extreme
off-road conditions (e.g. over boulders or through shifting desert sand). Add these new
features to Discovery�s battery of pioneering electronic power train control systems like Electronic Traction Control and Hill Descent Control, and the new Discovery is well equipped to defend Land Rover�s reputation as the
world�s leading 4x4 manufacturer.
