Discovery Sport vs Lexus NX

Comparing the Land Rover Discovery Sport to the Lexus NX 350

Cleveland area shoppers considering the 2023 Discovery Sport or Lexus NX 350 will find the Discovery Sport at Range Rover Solon an enticing option. Emphasizing off-road prowess, flexible seating, and advanced safety features, the new Discovery Sport nudges ahead of the NX 350 as the more appealing option for Warren area drivers.

Performance & Capabilities

The 2023 Land Rover Discovery Sport and Lexus NX 350 have robust engines. The Discovery Sport touts a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 246 horsepower and 269 pound-feet of torque. In comparison, the NX 350 brings a more potent 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine offering 275 horsepower and 317 pound-feet of torque.

However, the Discovery Sport excels in versatility and off-road prowess. All-wheel drive is standard, supplemented by various off-road driving modes, which enhances its capabilities on challenging terrains, making it the ideal choice for adventurous drivers.

Comfort and Convenience



Both models offer an array of luxury amenities. The Lexus NX 350 presents features like heated and power-adjustable front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a larger 9.8-inch infotainment touchscreen compared to the Discovery Sport's 10-inch screen.

Nevertheless, the Discovery Sport comes out ahead with its loftier seating flexibility. While both SUVs comfortably seat five passengers, the Discovery Sport offers an optional third row for seven seats. The Discovery Sport SE trim also introduces a luxury touch with an 11-speaker Meridian premium audio system, a feature that isn't standard for the Lexus model.

Safety and Technology



The Discovery Sport and NX 350 SUVs feature advanced driver assist like forward collision mitigation, lane-keeping assistance, and adaptive cruise control. Yet, the Discovery Sport shines with a standard surround-view camera, providing a top-down view for parking, a feature only available as an option in the NX 350.

The Discovery Sport offers more to Beachwood area customers with its optional packages, such as the Technology Pack, which includes a head-up display. The rivaling NX 350 incorporates cloud-based navigation and advanced voice controls, features not found on the Discovery Sport.

The Clear Winner

The Discovery Sport is the more versatile luxury SUV with greater off-road capabilities, seating flexibility, and safety features, making it an excellent choice for Euclid car buyers looking for superior performance, convenience, and safety.
