Default Coolant for Discovery 5

I need to buy coolant for my 2020 Discovery Landmark. My current coolant is Orange.

Could someone please advise (brand name, specs) or provide a link to which one I should be buying?

I was told This One would work, but I'm not sure as it says "GM Vehicles"

Thanks in advance!

As it states in the owners manual use Havoline XLC 50/50 and mix with water. I couldn't find any of that in Canada so I went to the stealership and paid about 38 Cad which is around 27 Usd which isn't bad.

That is the one I used but the premixed 50/50 when I replaced the water pump, thermostat, and radiator last year on my 17. Also use the same fluid on my lr4.

It is , but it is also XLC standard. I believe it would be fine.

My low coolant light went on in my 2018 Disco Si6. Reservoir was well below the min marker. Lady i called at the dealership advised to top it off and wait to see if it drops again, although she was not a service advisor and i'm waiting to hear back from my service advisor on whether to bring it in right away (which i'm leaning towards doing). Will report back if i get it checked out.
I topped it off with the below Peak coolant (pink) which seemed to be a direct replacement for the Havoline XLC factory fill:
