Lightweight Aluminum Autos

The New Land Rover 2015 Discovery Sport is Equipped with Updates

— September 3, 2014 — Autos
The 2015 Discovery Sport by Land Rover comes equipped with a wide range of updates from its predecessors. From new touchscreen technology on the inside to a lightweight aluminum frame, the car offers everything when it comes to luxury and efficiency.

Due to certain updates, the car is also more sustainable. Since the body is that much lighter the auto uses up less gas, improving its effect on the environment. To be more specific, the design comes with "next generation multi-link rear axle, advanced pedestrian airbag technology, an all-new touchscreen infotainment system and state-of-the-art high-strength steel and lightweight aluminum body-shell for optimal performance, safety and efficiency," as stated on DesignBoom. With these details it's hard to see how one could go wrong driving this updated auto.
