Land Rover Discovery 3rd Row Space Explained

When searching for a true luxury 7-seater SUV in Connecticut, passenger comfort is just as important as cargo space. Discover the exact legroom, access features, and honest seating assessments for the Land Rover Discovery third row.

Can adults fit in the Discovery 3rd row?

Yes, the Land Rover Discovery is a genuine 7-seater. The third row provides 33.5 inches of legroom, which is spacious enough to comfortably accommodate adults on shorter trips and teenagers on extended drives. Thanks to stadium seating and dedicated climate vents, third-row passengers enjoy a comfortable, airy experience rather than feeling confined.

Discovery Seating & Legroom Dimensions

See exactly how much room each passenger has. The Discovery is engineered to prioritize space across all three rows, ensuring everyone rides in luxury.

Seating Row Available Legroom Headroom (w/ Panoramic Roof) Honest Comfort Assessment
First Row (Front) 39.1 inches 39.3 inches Exceptional captain's chair comfort with extensive power adjustability for long hauls.
Second Row 37.4 inches 39.0 inches Vast legroom for adults. The sliding function allows you to share space with the 3rd row.
Third Row 33.5 inches 37.9 inches Excellent for kids/teens. Adults can ride comfortably, especially if the 2nd row slides forward slightly.

Third-Row Comfort & Access Features

Legroom is only part of the equation. Land Rover designed the third row to feel like a premium cabin experience rather than an afterthought.

Stadium Seating

Each row is positioned slightly higher than the one in front of it. This ensures passengers in the third row enjoy excellent forward visibility and a more open, airy feel.

Intelligent Seat Fold

Accessing the third row is effortless. With optional Intelligent Seat Fold, you can power-fold the second row out of the way using a button in the cargo area or the touchscreen.

Child Seat Compatibility

The Discovery offers up to five ISOFIX / LATCH points—including points in the third row on certain models—making it remarkably flexible for large families with young children.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Land Rover Discovery have heating for the 3rd row?
Yes, depending on the trim and selected options, the Land Rover Discovery offers heated seats in all three rows, as well as dedicated climate control vents for third-row passengers to ensure year-round comfort.
Can you slide the second row in the Discovery?
Yes. The second row in the Land Rover Discovery features a sliding function. This allows you to slide the second-row seats forward or backward to negotiate legroom between second and third-row passengers, maximizing comfort for taller adults.
Are child car seats compatible with the third row?
Yes, the Discovery can be equipped with up to five ISOFIX / LATCH points across the cabin, meaning you can safely install compatible child seats in the third row, making it a highly practical choice for growing families.
How hard is it to get into the Discovery 3rd row?
Access is very straightforward. The second-row seats tip and slide forward generously, creating a wide entryway. Combined with the vehicle's air suspension, which can lower the ride height, climbing into the back is easier than in many competing 3-row SUVs.
