GOING ELECTRIC WITH DISCOVERY
ELECTRIFIED ADVENTURE WITH DISCOVERY
For decades, Discovery paved the way for family adventures.
Today, electric power enhances the world’s most versatile SUVs with improved levels of refinement, responsiveness and performance. Explore our mild hybrid vehicles and the electric hybrid Discovery Sport.
ELECTRIC HYBRID (PHEV)
The electric hybrid Discovery Sport uses a battery powered electric motor with a petrol engine. It can be charged at home or using a wide network of public chargers and can be driven in either fully electric EV mode or Hybrid mode.
MILD HYBRID (MHEV)
Our mild hybrid vehicles’ petrol and diesel engines work in harmony with an electric motor. Regenerative braking captures and converts the energy generated when slowing down and braking to optimise battery range without the need to plug in.
DRIVING AN ELECTRIC HYBRID DISCOVERY SPORT
Experience a robust drive and enhanced efficiency.
EV MODE
Perfect for commuting through urban areas or completing short journeys. Select EV mode and enjoy a near-silent driving experience with zero tailpipe emissions.

HYBRID MODE
In hybrid mode the electric motor and engine work together in harmony, providing enhanced performance. Your default driving mode automatically selects between the petrol engine and electric battery to give you the power you need for your journey.

CHARGING TECHNOLOGY
Our battery technology allows you to use some of the fastest public chargers. Regenerative braking charges the battery by collecting energy created through deceleration.

CHARGING AN ELECTRIC HYBRID DISCOVERY SPORT
AT HOME AND ON THE GO
Charge from the comfort of your home with a domestic plug socket or a home charger. As easy as plugging in your phone, this is the most convenient and often cheapest way to charge. While travelling, you benefit from the rapidly-growing public charging network and rapid DC charging.
PREFERRED HOME CHARGING SUPPLIERS
A professionally installed home charger is the fastest way to charge from home. Before you purchase your Discovery Sport, our preferred home charging suppliers will help you check whether your property is suitable for installation.
OUR RECOMMENDED HOME CHARGING PARTNERS
To provide you with the most comprehensive charging capabilities and minimum installation lead-time for your area, we have partnered with two OLEV-approved wall box providers. Andersen EV and Pod Point’s fast and smart-enabled wall boxes come with a 3-year warranty as standard, and are recommended for their quality and reliability.
If you live in a flat or rental accommodation you may be eligible for up to £350 off the cost of your charging point with the government’s EV chargepoint grant.
