Measure the Seats
Record the outside width of each infant, convertible or booster seat. Slimline seats provide more room for adjacent seats.
A practical guide to LATCH, second-row space and the real-world steps required to evaluate three-across child-seat fitment.
Discovery is designed for family use and Land Rover documents LATCH compatibility, but three child seats across is not a universal yes/no fit. The result depends on the exact child-seat widths, seat positions, installation method and the specific Discovery configuration.
Land Rover's family guidance specifically discusses fitting three vehicle seats and recommends slimline designs when three seats are needed. Always test the exact seats you own in the exact vehicle before relying on a three-across configuration.
Record the outside width of each infant, convertible or booster seat. Slimline seats provide more room for adjacent seats.
Do not assume that three individually compatible seats will fit side-by-side. Install all three at once and check for interference.
Confirm the appropriate anchor or seat-belt installation for each position using the vehicle and child-seat manuals.
Rear-facing seats can require front-seat adjustment. Verify that the front occupants still have a comfortable and safe seating position.
| Measurement | 2026 Discovery | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Second-row legroom | 37.4 in | Helps assess rear-facing seat clearance and passenger space. |
| Third-row legroom | 33.5 in | Useful for children and occasional adult passengers. |
| Second-row shoulder room | 59.5 in | Relevant to side-by-side seating and booster placement. |
| Seating capacity | 7 | Allows three rows for larger families. |
| Rear LATCH | Listed by Land Rover | Use the vehicle and child-seat manuals for exact anchor positions. |
The safest way to answer a three-across question is to install your actual seats in the actual vehicle. A retailer test drive can confirm whether the configuration works for your children, car seats and front-seat positions.
Use the manufacturer source for current model specifications, seating, cargo information and capability details.
