At Land Rover Albuquerque, we provide Bernalillo car shoppers with a lineup of high-end, adventure-ready SUVs. If you’re interested in a model from our selection, you may be wondering how the 2026 Discovery differs from the 2026 Discovery Sport. Both vehicles offer spacious cabins, excellent off-road capabilities, and modern technology. However, their performance and seating configurations aren’t the same. Find out more in the following Discovery vs. Discovery Sport guide from Land Rover Albuquerque.
When you trade up to either SUV, you can look forward to exceptional power on and off the roads of Sandia Park. While the Discovery Sport delivers impressive performance figures, the Discovery produces better numbers and has an available powertrain option if you crave even more power. View these models’ engine selection below:
The Discovery may pack more power, but it is also a 3-row SUV. If you don’t need a vehicle with 7 seats, the Discovery Sport will be a better fit for you. If you are shopping for a car that fits your growing family, the great news is that the Discovery Sport can be built to have 3 rows of seating. Either way, both models have plenty of space for your passengers and cargo.
