![Land Rover Shows the Shape of 2015 Discovery Sport in Clearest Photos Yet [w/Video]](https://www.carscoops.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/LR-Discovery-Sport-0.jpg)
The upcoming Land Rover Discovery Sport will probably become the brand’s most important model, as it will perform in the highly successful compact SUV segment.
The successor to the Freelander will offer the option of a third row of seats, with Land Rover showcasing this with an innovative camouflage wrap.
Not only does the camo show the position of the second and third rows of seats, it also gives the clearest view yet of the SUV’s design. The influence of the Land Rover Vision Concept is obvious, especially in the profile and at the front, with the Discovery Sport looking sleek and modern.
“As you would expect from a Discovery, the versatile Discovery Sport will feature optional 5+2 seating, offering spacious load space and configurable seating, while still retaining a more compact footprint than traditional 5-seat SUVs,” said Gerry McGovern, Design Director and Chief Creative Officer for Land Rover.
Prototype vehicles sporting the new camouflage design left the Halewood plant in the UK to embark on the final testing and development activity across several continents. The Land Rover Discovery Sport will go on sale alongside the existing Discovery in 2015.
