Hyundai Ioniq 5 vs Land Rover Discovery Sport [2015-2017]

Hyundai's all-new Ioniq 5 is a rear-wheel drive, fun-to-drive, oversized hatchback that warms your heart every time you look at it; especially in person. Here's what we think after spending sometime with it in Goa.

With our off-road stage set at the ‘19 Degree North’ adventure sports club in Aamby Valley, we start off early into the wilderness to make it back before darkness falls. I’m at the wheel of the Discovery Sport and the key here, in these conditions, is to venture out into such terrain, learn and also have some fun before heading back to base camp, unscathed (ideally).

Replacement for the Land Rover Freelander 2. The most affordable Land Rover. Challenger to the Audi Q5 and the BMW X3. Call it what you will. But to us, the Discovery Sport seems to be all the car you might ever need. It is good-looking in the same way the Evoque was, only this one looks like something men can drive as well. It has the space, comfort, safety and practicality to be the ideal family car. And, it has the hardware to take you above and beyond (sorry, but I just couldn’t resist). Now, the details.
