FAQ

Common Questions

Can I mount a rooftop tent on the Discovery?

In many cases, yes, depending on tent weight and your chosen rack system. Always stay within the published roof load rating and consult your dealer for approved setups.

How dustproof is the POD?

The Discovery uses sealed construction and automotive-style hardware to keep out rain and road dust in normal use. For extreme dust conditions, we recommend pairing with proper loading practices and regular seal checks.

What's the difference between Discovery and Pioneer?

Both share the same POD body and volume. The Pioneer adds high-clearance trailing arm suspension, electric brakes, and off-road tyres for rough terrain capability.
