Toyota Landcruiser 200 series

Toyota Land cruiser 2008 / 2009

Well its a world first for Australia and the 2007 International Motor show in Sydney launches the Toyota Landcruiser 200 series.

Its not a dramatic new space age look but more a refinement of many qualities that have transcended the brand for the last 15 years

From the introducing of the 80 series to the 100 series landcruiser we still hold this king of 4x4 vehicles at the top of the tree

Toyota  have redesigned the grill and extensively designed the tired old 100 series rear lights. Interior has a redesign  and molds itself more to the passenger car type feel.

The upper end of the  Australian buyer  may now see this back to a status symbol type of vehicle  and it may soon appear at a private school near you, however saying that lets not forget the quality Toyota vehicle it is and certainly will be just as good as  land cruiser models before.

2009 toyota land cruiserQualities like the  hydraulic range rover style suspension ( KDSS) Kinetic Dynamic suspension system may be seen , this will allow the vehicle to lower as soon as the ignition is switched of to make life a little easier for passenger exit.

 

 

Toyota Landcruiser 200 off road works well

   

First appearance and it seems slightly longer than before , the rear bumper tends to protrude maybe giving that appearance , wider yes and body designed to appear slightly lower ideal for navigating those inner city shopping center median strips.

CRAWL control or cruise for off road 4x4 use maintains a constant speed in muddy and rocky terrain.

Add to it the landcruiser 200 series down hill control, multi terrain ABS, Hill start assist, Bluetooth technology , smart entry and smart start and you have one hell of a nice truck. (More features at end of article)

Engine wise,  look forward to the new 4.5 L common rail V8 Turbo diesel. 200Kw with 650 Nm torque in the GXL, VX and Sahara models

Yes the petrol V8 turbo will be there as well . No more manuals only 6 speed Auto.( These Autos are state of the art with 5 (petrol) and 6 spd (diesel) electronically controlled with artificial intelligence shift control and sequential shift activation.)

...And what happens to the old Toyota cruiser?

What will this do to your current 100 series landcruiser? DE-VALUE ,  but hey that's what we expect these days.

Fuel consumption as per the Toyota Land cruiser brochure is 10.3L/100 Turbo Diesel and 14.5L/100km in the petrol.

Towing is 3500kg braked 750 kg unbraked roof weight is 200 kg . Fuel tank on the GXL with sub fuel is 138 litres. 93 main only in VX and Sahara
