What you won’t like is that the nine-speed automatic gearbox feels hesitant to sudden inputs to the accelerator, especially at city speeds. It can transmit a few jerks too. While the engine has made the Disco sprightlier, we’d have liked it to be a bit more refined.
Save for the engine, the Discovery Sport remains unchanged over its diesel siblings, and so, the suspension is still stiff, and sharp undulations filter into the cabin. The low-speed ride is a bit firm, but the Disco gains composure as speeds rise. In fact, high- speed ride is second to none. The handling though, is safe and predictable rather than sporty.
