The Land Rover Discovery has long been regarded as one of the finest towing vehicles available — combining genuine capability with on-road refinement that makes it easy to live with.
Discovery 3 Towing Capacity
The Discovery 3 TDV6 (2.7L) has a maximum braked towing capacity of 3,500kg — making it suitable for large horse trailers, twin-axle caravans and most boat trailers. Unbraked towing is 750kg.
The Discovery 3 TDV6 — 3,500kg towing capacity makes it one of the most capable tow cars at its price point
Discovery 4 Towing Capacity
Identical to the Discovery 3 at 3,500kg braked. The improved SDV6 engine makes it even more capable in practice, with stronger mid-range torque making towing feel effortless.

Discovery 5 Towing Capacity
The Discovery 5 maintains the class-leading 3,500kg braked towing limit. Features like Trailer Stability Assist, Advanced Tow Assist (a reversing aid for trailers), and the optional Tow Pro Elite package make it the most sophisticated Discovery tow car yet.
