The second generation Discovery is called the LR3 in North America. It takes a giant step towards the Range Rover in sophistication. It is powered by a Jaguar-sourced 4.4L V8. A six speed automatic transmission with shift inputs is standard. The LR3 features an automatic load-leveling, electronically controlled suspension. Available in SE and HSE trim levels, the LR3 starts at around $42k.

What Changed:

The LR3 receives very minor trim and carpet color changes. Nineteen inch wheels are now standard. The Roof Rails have been removed.
