Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has announced that the world premiere of the fifth-generation Land Rover Discovery will be held on September 28, 2016. For now, the company has released the first teaser images of the SUV and will showcase the vehicle at the 2016 Paris Motor Show.

Speaking about the design of the SUV, the Discovery's front appears to be identical to that of the Land Rover Discovery Vision concept that was showcased back in 2014. The straight lines have been replaced by a set of cleaner curves which also helps the car look more muscular.

Mechanical details of the new SUV are scarce but the Land Rover Discovery might be offered with 2.0 and 3.0-litre petrol and diesel engine options globally along with mild-hybrid systems. Detailings on the car will feature the fifth generation 'D I S C O V E R Y' badging on the bonnet; square LED headlamps along with the daytime running lights(DRL); massive ground clearance; and the customary skidplate.

The Land Rover Discovery will be based on the Premium Lightweight Architecture (PLA) platform, and by doing so the car will be significantly lighter than the current models. The fifth-generation SUV will be built adjacent to the Range Rover and the Range Rover Sport at JLR’s Solihull plant in England and is expected to be priced around the Rs 1 crore mark.
