"Discoverer" is a masterpiece describing the history of human beings exploring the world and self in the long history of civilization. It has been popular since its publication in the United States and has been sold well. It has been translated into more than 20 languages.

As the author said, this is an endless story. The whole world is still a new continent. On the map of human knowledge, there are still many unknown fields waiting for us to fill in and discover.

Discoverer Land Rover Discovery Series

It has been 12 years since the launch of the Land Rover Discovery series. During this period, it was modified in 1998, adding many advanced technologies, especially the dynamic performance of the vehicle has been greatly improved. Nevertheless, it The unique appearance does not seem to have changed significantly because it has become a symbol in the minds of users. In fact, the success of the Discovery series is not only that. It not only contains rough and bold off-road style, but also because of its versatility and practical needs, it can be met to the greatest extent.

Discovery's spacious interior allows seven adults to sit comfortably. Each occupant seat is equipped with a three-point seat belt and headrest. If needed, you can make it a truck in minutes with the seats folded. It can free up 1.7 cubic meters of load space, and the load capacity reaches 730 kg. The high driving position provides the driver with a wide forward view, and the "theater-style seats" which gradually increase in the middle and rear rows ensure good visibility for all occupants. The design of the double sunroof and the "alpine-style glass" at the rear makes the interior full of light and feel the nature. The pockets and net pockets everywhere in the car, front and rear drink cup holders, various spaces for sundries, armrests for front and rear seats, backup power sockets, rear audio remote control (optional), and so on, all reflect practicality and User friendly.

With the introduction of the second-generation Discovery (New Discovery) in 1998, it comprehensively improved the performance of Discovery, making it have a higher level of comfort on both road and off-road driving. New Discovery's Active Cornering Enhancement (ACE) is a patented technology developed by Land Rover for off-road vehicles to ensure the vehicle's stability on various terrains. ACE is equipped on the front suspension and rear balance bar. When the vehicle is turning, the force of the lever is actively balanced by the hydraulic mechanism to minimize the body roll. The system can also automatically monitor the off-road situation and allow the balance bar to follow There is more room for wheel travel. Automatic height adjustment suspension system (SLS). This device was first applied to the Range Rover. Its function is to keep the vehicle's rear height fixed while driving. This is especially true when loading heavy loads or towing trailer When using for off-road driving, the height of the rear of the vehicle can be appropriately raised to increase the departure angle; its extension mode can even raise the rear of the vehicle automatically after the rear chassis of the vehicle is supported by road obstacles, so that the vehicle can pass smoothly. The electronic traction control system (ETC) is to ensure that the vehicle can maintain the maximum traction at any time. The ETC system monitors the movement status of each wheel at any time. Once a wheel slips, it will give the wheel braking force in time and transmit power at the same time. To other wheels that did not slip. Muddy and frozen roads are not an obstacle for New Discovery. The steep slope control system (HDC) is another Land Rover patented technology. When descending, the system will automatically apply braking force to the wheels according to the speed of each wheel to keep the vehicle running at a constant speed of about 8km / h. Electronic braking force distribution system (EBD). The EBD system works in conjunction with the anti-lock braking system (ABS). According to the load of the front and rear cars, the braking force of the front and rear wheels is reasonably distributed during braking, and the heavy or index force is distributed. The trailer is more effective to prevent brake lockup and provide higher security. It is the combination of these advanced technologies that makes New Discovery one of the most capable four-wheel-drive off-road vehicles in the world.

Discovery can be equipped with two engines-a 2.5-liter 5-cylinder turbo diesel Td5; a powerful and smooth 4.0V8 gasoline engine. Td5 is one of the most advanced and clean diesel engines in the world. It is more powerful and economical than previous models. It can reach a maximum output power of 101.5 kilowatts at 4200 rpm and only at 1950 rpm. , You can reach a maximum output torque of 300 Nm. A 4.0-liter V8 gasoline engine can output a maximum power of 136 kW at 4750 rpm and a maximum torque of 340 Nm at 2600 rpm.

Discoverer Vehicle Safety

Discovery is equipped with an all-terrain ABS system and dual front airbags. Front impact energy absorption zones, all seat cushioning headrests, side impact steel beams inside the doors, and three-point seatbelts for all seats are standard equipment. In addition, it is also equipped with a complete "Super Lock" anti-theft system, including engine lock, body periphery protection, interior space monitoring system, etc., and security is impeccable.

Discoverer equipped

It is multifunctional and practical as a starting point, not to mention the space for sundries everywhere in the car. From the headrests of the seven seats, you can see the designer's puppet, the head of the middle seat of the middle seat The pillow can be automatically retracted into the backrest when the center armrest is lowered when not in use, thereby improving the driver's rear vision. The headrest of the rear seats can be folded close to the ceiling when not in use. Various convenient facilities can be seen everywhere in the car.
