Land Rover Reveals Special Discovery “Anniversary Edition” To Celebrate 35 Years Of The Go-anywhere SUV

Land Rover reveals special Discovery “Anniversary Edition” to celebrate 35 years of the seven-seat, go-anywhere SUV.

35th Anniversary edition is inspired by the Metropolitan Edition and features Bright Atlas detailing for the grille and Discovery lettering. 

The exclusive new 35th Anniversary special edition distinguish itself with bespoke ‘XXXV’ badging and tread plates.

Celebratory addition joins the S, Dynamic SE, Dynamic HSE, and Metropolitan Edition in the Discovery line-up.

Coscharis Motors, the sole franchise for JLR house of brands, has sustained the Discovery brand in Nigeria for over 15 years. 

This year Discovery celebrates 35 years of ingenious versatility with a new special edition version of its luxurious full-size seven-seat SUV. Discovery remains an exceptional family SUV that’s been setting the standard for versatility and all-round breadth of capability since its world premiere at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1989.

Mark Cameron, Managing Director, Discovery, said:

“For 35 years, Discovery has been setting the standard for family SUVs and we’re proud to celebrate reaching such an occasion. The Discovery family’s seven-seat flexibility, spacious cabin and unrivalled ingenuity make it the perfect partner for family adventures as it turns everyday activities into exceptional experiences.”

Since its launch in 1989, Discovery has set the standard for seven-seat family SUVs, combining innovation with space and practicality. Its family-friendly stepped roofline has become a Discovery hallmark, creating a distinctive silhouette.

Safety and capability have been at the heart of Discovery. In 1998, it introduced industry-first Active Cornering Enhancement (ACE) technology, using electronically controlled anti-roll bars to reduce body roll. A year later, it became the first SUV to introduce twin airbags for front seat passengers, and JLR’s Terrain Response technology made its pioneering debut on Discovery in 2004.

Its reputation as an SUV that is both highly versatile and capable is well established. Discovery has proven itself in operations with the Austrian Red Cross – which took delivery of a specially adapted Discovery Emergency Response Vehicle in 2018 to support search and rescue activities – and excels as a towing vehicle. Its effortless capability here was showcased when a production specification model pulled a 110-tonne road train for 16km in the Australian Outback in 2017.
