Land Rover Discovery, in slang or popular language also frequently just called 'Disco', is a series of mid-size luxury SUVs, produced under the Land Rover marque, from the British manufacturer Land Rover (becoming Jaguar Land Rover in 2013). The vehicle series has seen five iterations (or generations, according to the manufacturer), the first of which was introduced in 1989, heavily based on the standard wheelbase Range Rover Classic of the time. The 1989 Discovery was the first new model series since the launch of the Range Rover of 1970, and only the third essentially new product since the conception of the Land Rover (vehicle and brand) by Rover in 1948.

The second Discovery was called the Series II, and was essentially a face-lift, in 1998. The third 'generation' – succeeding the series I and II, was titled the Discovery 3, launched in 2004 and it was marketed in North America and The Middle East as the Land Rover LR3. The fourth iteration, as of 2009 – like the series II, was essentially an update of the previous generation – marketed as the Discovery 4, or Land Rover LR4 for North American and Middle Eastern markets. The fifth iteration of the Discovery was introduced in 2017, and omits the numeric suffix of the previous two generations.

The Discovery Series I was introduced into the United Kingdom in October 1989.^[2] The company code-named the vehicle 'Project Jay'.^[3] The new model was strongly based on the more upmarket Range Rover, using largely the same chassis, 4WD system and suspension, and a derivative body structure – especially the four-door was very similar to the more expensive Range Rover. However, with smaller engines available, just two side doors at introduction, and lower pricing, the new Discovery aimed at a more affordable, larger market segment, intended to counter the Japanese competition at the time. This Discovery was the first Land Rover model, that was positioned as a middle class family car, and the only generation with a four-cylinderpetrol engine.

The Discovery was initially only available as a three-door version; the five-door body style became available in 1990. Both were fitted with five seats, with the option to have two jump seats fitted in the boot. Land Rover employed an external consultancy, Conran Design Group, to design the interior. They were instructed to ignore current car interior design and position the vehicle as a 'lifestyle accessory'. Their interior incorporated a number of original features, although some ideas shown on the original interior mock-ups (constructed inside a Range Rover bodyshell at Conran's workshops) were left on the shelf, such as a custom sunglasses holder built into the centre of the steering wheel. The design was unveiled to critical acclaim, and won a British Design Award in 1989.

The original transmission was a dual-ratio five-speed manual with drive via a transfer case with a lockable centre differential.^[4]

Much of the interior was constructed from 'Sonar Blue' plastic (with blue cloth trim), with magazine holders above the windscreen, hand-holds for rear passengers incorporated into the head restraints of the front seats, remote radio controls on the instrument cluster, twin removable sunroof panels (including a special zip-up storage bag behind the rear seats) and a Land Rover-branded cloth fabric holdall in the front centre console for oddments storage that could be removed from the vehicle and worn as a handbag using a supplied shoulder strap (relatively few of these bags have survived, making them collectable items). Despite such features, the interior's basic structure was the same as the Range Rover and virtually all the switchgear and instruments came from other Rover Group cars such as the Maestro and Montego. Similarly, the Discovery utilised several Range Rover body panels, as well as headlights from the Freight Rover van and taillights from the Maestro van. The latter would continue to bear the Austin Rover 'chevron' logo on their lenses until production of the first generation Discovery ended in 1998, ten years after Austin Rover ceased to exist.

The designers of the original model had been forced to economise and use the 'parts bin' of the -then parent company, Rover. The 200 series used the basic body shell structure from the Range Rover, door handles from the Morris Marina, tail lights from the Austin Maestro van, and interior switchgear and instrumentation from Rover's surplus parts.

In 1992, the Discovery received several additions and improvements. The interior was offered in a more traditional beige as well as the distinctive (but controversial) light blue, an automatic gearbox was made available on 200Tdi models, new colours were added to the range (and the large 'compass and mountain' side decals worn by early Discoveries to disguise wavy panel fit around the rear three quarter windows were no longer fitted) and the 'SE' pack (incorporating alloy wheels, front driving lights, roof bars and a special range of metallic paints) was introduced as an option. A two-seater, three-door Discovery Commercial version, lacking rear-side windows, was later offered by Land Rover Special Vehicles also known as SVO (Special Vehicles Operations).

Before 1994, the Discovery was available with either the 2.5-litre 200 Tdi engine or the 3.5-litre Rover V8. Early V8 engines used a twin SU carburettor system, switching to Lucas 14CUX fuel injection in 1990. A 2.0-litre petrol engine from the Rover stable was briefly available in a model known as the 2.0-litre Mpi I4. This was intended to attract fleet managers, since UK (and Italian) tax laws benefitted vehicles under 2.0 litres. A combination of changes in taxation and lack of power for such a heavy vehicle led to the
