Where each one leads
Dodge Durango
Ahead on none of the like-for-like measures.
Land Rover Discovery
- On Canada's official test the most frugal 2026 Land Rover Discovery uses 11.2 l/100 km, the 2026 Dodge Durango 11.9.
- New Land Rover Discovery cars registered in Europe in 2022 average 225 g/km of CO₂ on the WLTP test, against 345 for the Dodge Durango in 2022.
Too close to call: new York safety inspections failed, against cars of the same year.
Only measures that do not depend on how many cars were sold: pass and failure rates against cars of the same age, ratings, fuel use and CO₂. How we compare
