Japanese automaker Toyota presented a restyled version of its toyota SUV Land Cruiser 200 model 2016-2017. Soon, a North American version of the car was shown, which is likely to be sold in Russia. Both the exterior and the internal filling and even the technical characteristics have undergone changes.

Let's get acquainted with the main innovations.

Appearance of Kruzak 200 in a new body

New videos and photo materials allow you to easily see external changes.

The front is offered with new tapered optics based on LED technology with metal beams. The false radiator grille became larger, the horizontal bridges were larger.

All this was enclosed in a wide frame. At the same time, the bumper turned out to be more compact, and LED fog lights were located along the edges. We also note a longitudinal depression in the center of the updated hood.

There were no changes on the side, so it makes no sense to compare the new and the previous version.

The feed is equipped with oversized LED lights with original graphics. The dimensions of the lampshades were emphasized with new winged chrome inserts. The bumper was slightly modified, and also modified foglights were added.

Dimensions Land Cruiser 200 after restyling

Certain changes have taken place in dimensions. They now look like this:

• length - 4950 mm;
• width - 1970 mm;
• height - 1950 mm (Previously 1920);
• wheelbase - 2850 mm;
• ground clearance - 225 mm.

Photos of the updated salon Land Cruiser 200 2016-2017

Inside the cabin, we observe a modified steering wheel, a new dashboard, based on a color display with a diagonal of 4.2 inches. Also, the center console has become more modern, and its main decoration is now a multimedia system with touch controls and a 9-inch screen.

It is supplemented by a block responsible for climatic equipment.

The floor tunnel was modified, equipped with an impressive number of buttons, each of which is responsible for a specific function. A couple of handy washers will help the driver control the all-wheel drive of the Japanese SUV.

Equipping a new SUV

In terms of equipment, there is a major difference between the Japanese and American versions of the 2016-2017 Toyota Land Cruiser 200. In Japan, the car will be offered with options to choose from, while in the North American market they will sell exclusively versions filled with all available options. The client can only choose the color of the body and the rims.

The main innovation of the complete set, apart from some minor changes, is the new set of security systems. It received its official name - Toyota Safety Sense P. It includes:

1. an automatic braking system that reacts to cars and pedestrians;
2. tracking and control system for blind spots;
3. a tracking system for road markings and cars that move in cross traffic behind;
4. adaptive cruise control, which slows down and brakes when necessary;
5. adaptive optics, which independently switches the far to near and vice versa;
6. wheel pressure monitoring system;
7. a panoramic view system, which allows you to follow what is happening from all four sides through the multimedia display (even under the bottom of the car).

The price of the new Land Cruiser 200 2016-2017

First, a restyled version of the Toyota Land Cruiser 200 appeared in Japan. Here the novelty is offered at a price of 4.73 million yen (~ 2 643 368 rubles.) .

In autumn updated SUV will get to the North American continent and Asia, where the price will be approximately 82-83 thousand dollars.

The appearance of the car in Russia should be expected only at the beginning of 2016. Officially, the cost has not yet been announced.

Specifications Toyota Land Cruiser 200 2016-2017

Apparently, the technical characteristics for the "200" for the Russian market will be similar to the versions for the United States. This means that customers will have only one power unit - 5.7 liter 8-cylinder petrol engine. Its power will be 381 hp and torque - 543 Nm. But it is equipped with a completely new eight-band automatic transmission.

Due to the joint work of the engine and the new box, the consumption outside the city will be approximately 13 liters per 100 kilometers, and with measured driving within the city limits - 15.8 liters.

For Japan, as well as some other countries, there will be two engines to choose from. These are units from a pre-styling SUV that have undergone modernization.

1. The 4.6-liter petrol eight-cylinder engine now produces 318 horse power and 460 Nm. Works in tandem with a six-speed automatic.
2. The diesel engine with a volume of 4.5 liters with 8 cylinders was equipped with new filters and nozzles, and its operation was also reprogrammed. As a result, the power is now 268 horsepower and the torque is 650 Nm.

Officially, Toyota does not confirm which engine and what equipment will be offered in Russia. It is quite possible that the 5.7-liter engine intended for the USA will not be available here. This is quite normal, as the 4.5 and 4.6 liter engines have decent performance and lower consumption after revision. Objectively, there is no need for the most powerful engine.

Video review Toyota Land Cruiser 200 2016

Main competitors of the 200th

1. ... The car is presented in a more expensive price category than the Cruiser 200, but recently it has become increasingly difficult to choose between these two models. Pay attention to what you want to get from the car - comfort or impressive dynamics. Toyota provides a high level of convenience, modest fuel consumption figures for a car of this size. At the same time, Mercedes is equipped with more powerful turbocharged engines, which significantly exceed the performance of Toyota units. But you are sacrificing expense.
2. ... The latest version of Patrol showed that the car has gone far from its original understanding of the word "SUV". Bridges disappeared, appeared independent suspension... The cross-country ability, of course, fell, the weight increased, but the comfort increased. The level of luxury for Nissan and Toyota is about the same. "Two hundred" will be ahead in off-road conditions, but it will seriously lose on the track, since the dynamics of Nissan is impressive.
3. This Briton can be considered the main competitor for the Japanese, and in all respects - technical characteristics, price, level of comfort. But keep in mind that for the top-end Rover you will have to pay about 4 million rubles, which is much more than the cost of the Cruiser. In terms of electronic equipment and maneuverability, the Briton was slightly ahead, but still basic configuration will not allow you to cut through difficult areas as the "two-hundredth" is capable of.
4. ... It is chosen by those who do not have enough money for a Land Cruiser, but dreams of a huge SUV. Its price tag is slightly over 3 million, the dynamics are weaker than the Japanese competitor, the finish is rather rough. At the same time, there is a third row of seats, a huge supply of space inside the cabin. You should not count on the American's wide off-road capabilities, since it is poorly adapted for such conditions, plus the weight is large.

Output

The restyling of the Toyota Land Cruiser 200 2016-2017 brought with it not only external, but also internal changes. The car has changed, it has become more modern and more economical, while the power indicators have increased.

In Russia, the new generation is offered in the "Lux" and "Prestige" trim levels. Among the features of the maximum equipment are a leather-trimmed steering wheel with remote control buttons, a multimedia system with an 8 "monitor and a navigation system. High-quality leather upholstery throughout. The first two rows of seats are heated, and the front seats are electrically adjustable, the driver's seats have memory for several provisions.

For Russian buyers who prefer gasoline versions, the proven and reliable 4.7-liter 2UZ-FE engine with electronic variable valve timing (VVT-i) is offered. The power plant is 288 liters. sec., and the torque is 439 Nm at 3400 rpm. The variable intake system increases thrust by low revs and throttle response at high. Acceleration to 100 km / h takes 9.2 seconds, maximum speed - 200 km / h. Diesel is the same one - 4.5-liter V8 with 235 hp. from. with an astounding 615 Nm torque - the most powerful diesel engine in lineup Toyota. Impressive thrust is provided by a modern turbocharger with variable geometryas well as the fuel system Common rail... As a result, the car behaves perfectly at both high and low speeds. Acceleration from 0-100 km / h takes only 8.6 seconds, the maximum speed is 210 km / h. Both motors are Euro 4 compliant.

The diesel Land Cruiser is equipped with a six-speed automatic transmission transmission, and an SUV with a gasoline engine - a five-speed. Both transmissions are smooth and fuel efficient. In addition to sequential gear shifting, they use AI-SHIFT technology, which adapts to driving style and road conditions. The all-wheel drive implemented on the Land Cruiser 200 is permanent (FullTime 4WD) with an asymmetric (40:60) Torsen center differential with the possibility of rigid locking and a reduction gear. Additionally, the Crawl Control low-speed vehicle control system, the DAC descent assist system and the Ascent assist system (HAC) are used. The suspension, in comparison with the previous generation, has not changed dramatically. In front is an independent, double wishbone spring design. Behind - a dependent, continuous bridge, also on springs.

Retaining the classic frame structure, the engineers managed to achieve higher frame strength without significant increase in weight by using new steels, at the same time increasing passive safety by creating areas of programmed deformation on impact. The more convex bonnet of the new model has become more tram-safe for pedestrians. Ten airbags, belt tensioners serve as a reliable guarantee of the safety of the driver and passengers in a collision. Anti-lock braking system for all types of terrain (Multi-terrain ABS), electronic brake force distribution (EBD), kinetic body stabilization system (KDSS), rain sensors are excellent help as preventive measures.

A bunch of intelligent systems provide Land Cruiser with impressive driving stability and high cross-country ability. The level of comfort is higher than ever. This car is one of the most expensive off-road vehicles, each generation of which represented the standard of comfort, power, reliability and safety for its time. The “200th” was no exception, demonstrating all the signs of class leadership.

Japanese SUVs are impressive for their size and appearance... This is a technique for strong people. Quality without compromise is proven off-road kilometers. The car will confidently emerge victorious from tests of varying difficulty. This article will indicate the overall dimensions of the "Land Cruiser 200", its characteristics.

Meeting the leader of the car market

a brief description of "Land Cruiser":

What's new?

200-Series Land Cruiser - model with new hood design, bumpers, grille, new look (bi-LED on VX) and updated LED taillights - now produces 200 kW (up to 5 kW) at 3600 rpm.

New fuel injectors and the increased capacity of the 4.5-liter twin-turbocharged DOHC 32-valve diesel engine to reduce emissions thanks to a fine particulate filter.

For use in urban conditions, the on-board computer moved 16 liters per 100 km from the 138-liter fuel tank... The manufacturer Toyota claims that fuel consumption has dropped by 7.7% to a combined cycle fuel economy of 9.9 liters per 100 kilometers.

The overall dimensions of the Land Cruiser 200 are 4950 mm in length. The six-speed automatic VX turbo diesel equipment is notable for the presence of an unusual shunt. It shows itself well in work.

Safety concerns

Standard safety conditions are:

• nine airbags, automatic two-level self-leveling headlights,
• lED daytime running lights,
• rain wipers,
• stability of management,
• trailer and traction control,
• anti-lock brakes,
• help on the rise,
• auto dimming central mirror,
• reversing camera, front and rear parking sensors.

Functional features

The overall dimensions of the Land Cruiser 200 are 1980 mm in width. The list of car functions includes:

• power supply and adjustment of the steering comb;
• leather steering wheel,
• leather seats,
• four-zone climate control,
• 18-inch alloys,
• wider 9-inch touchscreen for operating the nine-speaker infotainment system,
• the possibilities of satellite television,
• digital radio receiver,
• electric door mirrors, sun roof, side steps,
• wood trim,
• screen on-board computer in an updated and understandable form;
• power-adjustable driver / passenger seat in front.

The lighter touchscreen is easy to use, but can become difficult to read if contaminated by dust, fingerprints or direct sunlight.

About sizes

The overall dimensions of the Land Cruiser 200 are 1955 mm in height. The Prado sliding mid-row is not used in the Cruiser, making the interior more versatile and flexible. The spacious cabin is comfortable for five adult passengers.

The overall dimensions of the Toyota Land Cruiser 200 are 2850 mm in wheelbase with a ground clearance of 230 mm. The ramp angle is 25 degrees.

When the third row of seats is folded down, the boot provides 700 liters of cargo space. The SUV is up to five meters long, almost two meters high and almost the same in width, 200 is far from slim and tilts the scales to 2740 kg.

The overall dimensions of the Land Cruiser 200 body provide an entry angle of 32 degrees. The 2,850mm wheelbase has not changed since the 100 series, so extra length is seen at the rear wheels. But with a 32-degree zoom and a 24-degree departure angle, 230mm clearance is guaranteed to deliver superior off-road endurance performance.

Improved option

The traditionally compressed kinetic design uses its semi-active stabilizer bars. Front and rear four-wheel ventilated disc brakes and rear 345mm ventilated disc brakes will perform flawlessly.

Downshifting is easier than the Prado, but the off-road cruise control system is still unsafe. For serious steep descents, an electronic control system is needed.

Cameras installed as standard for the Sahara can make wheel placement easier in tight spaces given big sizes 200's.

Overall dimensions of "Land Cruiser 200" with rails are 1910 mm. As a rule, roof rails are not taken into account when specifying dimensions.

Such indicators are noteworthy as:

• standard rear differential,
• good ground clearance,
• excellent suspension movement that maintains solid wheel contact.

It is not customary to indicate the overall dimensions of the Land Cruiser 200 with mirrors, as can be seen from the corresponding tables. Therefore, dimensions are indicated only in width, length and height.

Let's sum up

The Land Cruiser 200 SUV is a car for people with strong character. Powerful technology withstands the toughest road conditions. The dimensions of the car are as impressive as its capabilities. Japanese technology has traditionally been the leader in the global automotive market. And this championship is well deserved, as can be seen in the case of the Land Cruiser SUV.

Land Cruiser 200 has a classic bearing frame, dependent rear and independent front suspension. SUVs equipped with 4.5-liter diesel engines (235 hp) are officially supplied to Russia, and such engines are paired with an automatic transmission in which there is a manual gear shift mode. The central differential of Toyota Land Cruiser 200 is a Torsen limited slip unit, there is a possibility of its forced locking. The features of the latest generation ABS, which are used on the car, include the dynamic adaptation of the system to the terrain in which the SUV is driving.

In 2002, a 5-year development plan on a successor to the 100-series platform commenced under Sadayoshi Koyari and Tetsuya Tada. By 2004, 10 years after the design selection of its predecessor in 1994, a final production design was settled on for the 2008 J200. Prototype related tests were conducted for over 2 years between 2004 and early 2007. The redesigned Toyota Land Cruiser was introduced in late 2007. Known as the 200 Series, it shares the Lexus LX 570 "s platform and overall design. The frame was new, Bigger brake rotors and calipers were added and the front suspension was made heavier duty than the Land Cruiser "s first effort at IFS in the 100-series and this underbelly is also derived from the second-generation Tundra but shortened and strengthened by 20 percent. protected by skid plates. Also, the roof pillars were redesigned to better protect occupants in a rollover.

Toyota "crooks" more than adequately performed in off-road nominations. The modernized Land Cruiser 200 threatens to take over the baton, ready to push its elbows apart and having far from illusory chances of appearing among the leaders of our off-road rating. Will it work?

We are heading to the Dmitrov Proving Ground driving a 2013 model. Inflated with a sense of self-importance, the updated Land Cruiser 200 can be seen a mile away. To distinguish it from a pre-styling SUV is elementary due to the numerous transformations in the exterior. With a cleared lenticular gaze of the head optics, into which xenon lamps of the near and high beam and a chain of daytime running LED lights, a modified front bumper, revised taillights, chrome door handles and side moldings, the giant looks more weighty, elegant, "premium".

Our test is not quite usual: as a rule, we bump our heads against several direct competitors from different brands, but here ... “My grandmother smokes a pipe, black-black tobacco. My grandmother smokes a pipe in a harsh sailor's puff. Old friend! The pre-styling "cruiser" with a diesel "twin-turbo" V8 was tested by the ORD in early 2010. Since then, he has managed to wind more than 45,000 km on wheels and still not die the death of a brave press park car. A well-worn one, we needed him not to denounce him in front of the brilliant fresh paint "rogue", but to look at the new through the prism of the old.

Position height

Landing in both cruisers is equally excellent. The high-mounted seat cushion, even in the lowest position, provides excellent visibility, but pulls behind it the slightly sloping position of the huge steering wheel, the upper and lower sections of which are inlaid with wood. The motif of the massiveness of individual exterior body parts, such as the hefty bulging headlights, is picked up by the interior. What are the door handles alone, which not every palm will clasp! Yes, and in Toyota-style large buttons on the dashboard with large symbols are good - you "get into" them without being distracted from the road. The center console is beautifully decorated, from the heart, with expensive-looking black accents a la “piano lacquer” finish. But what doesn't hold up well is climate control. To operate the direction of flows and adjust the fan speed, you have to turn to the inflorescence of the touch monitor. It is extremely doubtful that the ergonomics of the "weather" have undergone positive changes in the process of updating.

The cleverness of the mechanism for folding the benches of the third row, which are suspended along the side walls of the trunk in the stowed position, and the capacity of the cargo compartment, pleases no less than the expected supply of space in the second row. But the disadvantages are also obvious: because of the double-winged fifth door, the loading height is high, and there will only be enough legroom in the "gallery" for short ones or children. "My grandmother smokes a pipe and loves fire rum ...". Toyota diesel is a great power! V-shaped "eight" 1VDFTV with two turbochargers develops 615 Nm and in the sprint up to 100 km / h is not inferior to the newest petrol unit with a volume of 4.6 liters, even a split second. Small but perceptible vibrations on idling, powerful traction in a fairly wide range of revolutions, thoroughbred thunderous voice ... Serious guy! But if the "two hundred" on heavy fuel does not let you forget that you are driving an SUV, then the course of the petrol modification is comparable to the silky tread of a large sedan. The V8 wakes up with a dull, sated roar, but later on, the most powerful noise isolation effectively drowns out the slightly disappointing high-frequency rumble, devoid of pulsating bass notes. Changing gears imperceptibly, the automatic machine, however, is always ready: it reacts quite quickly to the movement of the gas pedal and does not make you wait when switching to low steps.

In what the "cruiser" can be found a little equal, so it is in the colossal energy intensity of the suspension. At the wheel of a "two hundred" you can safely forget about breakdowns of shock absorbers, unless you accidentally get a mine under the wheel. True, there is a tremor of impressive unsprung masses on irregularities of various calibers, but it is completely unobtrusive.

Diesel in combination with automatic transmission invigorates no less. But the course of the pre-styling car is a little rougher, a bit tougher.

Although it is believed that the owner of a Land Cruiser car a priori has the opportunity to feed his pet to his fill, we could not help but pay attention to the fuel consumption. Gasoline Land Cruisers are unlikely to be among the economical models, but with the new engine, the chances for the favor of tight-fisted owners have increased. We managed to lower the mixed flow rate below 20 liters and keep it in the region of 18.5 liters, which is acceptable for a mastodon with a curb weight of 2585 kg. But diesel Toyota is a trucker's dream! Even in dense traffic jams, the on-board computer monitor did not show more than 14.0 liters per 100 km.

At the limit and beyond

If the stand, which determines the suspension travel before hanging on the Dmitrovsky training ground, could speak, it would cry out for mercy: the support move, it seems, will almost be chosen soon, but the Land Cruiser does not give up. Our dear and permanent measurer Dim Dimych scratches the back of his head in bewilderment - the updated SUV without any modifications stuns with the result of articulation equal to 600 mm. The diesel "dvuhsotka" has a maximum suspension travel of 560 mm, which is due to a significantly heavier front end. The axle weight distribution of the upgraded LC 200, according to our measurements, with a spread of 1-10 kg corresponds to a pre-styling car with an old 4.7 V8 engine.

The strongest sheet under the crankcase of the engine and machine gun, most likely, will do a lot. The front levers are horizontal. The crankcase of the rear axle can lock the "cruiser"; the low mountings of the rear shock absorbers can cling to the "landscape".

"Everybody in the world fears her and rightfully proud of her ..." The boiling of the ninth, tenth and all subsequent shafts raised by a diesel "cruiser" in a small lake drowned out the savory "grunt", which was published by the frame of the number under the onslaught of the elements. If you do not abuse the high-located air intake and do not overtake the "wave", the drowning of the license plate will become one of the few troubles that can befall during the storming of the ford. On deep, wet soil, which is typical for central Russia in the autumn off-road, the main limiting factor is the weight of the car. With the diesel "Kruzak" the situation is twofold - scrap torque allows only in extreme cases to engage a downshift, but due to a significant "trim" on the nose of Toyota on standard tires pushes the track. The updated car is stuffed with electronic "assistants", which partially make life outside the asphalt easier. We liked the four-camera Multi-terrain Monitor surround view system. It is impossible to overestimate the benefits of the "all-seeing eye", which allows you to notice in time a boulder that is dangerously close to the wheel, or simply an armature sticking out of the ground. Following the off-road fashion trends, the company introduced the Multi-terrain Select system, which resembles in its action the Land Rover Terrain Response. In L4 mode, the electronics adapt to one of five types of coverage plus the ability to lock the center differential. For slalom among trees, there is also such a function as Off-road Turn Assist, which brakes the inner rear wheel when cornering at speeds up to 10 km / h. Another valuable feature is the upgraded Crawl Control (now with five speed settings), which assists on descents and ascents when the "lowering" is engaged and up to 25 km / h. And yet the problem of an impressive mass does not disappear from this. In order for the power over the world to mean not an ugly social reality, but fearlessness in the face of difficult off-road conditions, it will be necessary to refine the car - at least, install more "mud" tires.

Toyota Land Cruiser 200

Free bevel differentials (D) are installed in the front and rear axles of the Land Cruiser 200; their locking is imitated by the operation of the braking mechanisms (TM) when the skid wheel is braked. Between the axles of the Toyota Lad Cruiser 200, the traction effort is distributed by an asymmetric limited-slip differential Torsen (NSD). The increased friction effect is provided by the helix angle. The ratio of the teeth provides a torque distribution of 40:60 (in favor of the rear wheels). When driving in a straight line on a dry road, the differential is in a free state. In case of deterioration of the conditions for adhesion of the wheels to the ground, up to 50% of the torque can be realized through the front axle of the SUV, and up to 70% through the rear axle.

The updated car, among other things, is equipped with a modern complex of systems that facilitate the driver's task on the road. Multi-terrain Select allows the on-board electronics to be adapted to one of five types of surfaces (mud and sand, crushed stone, mogul, stones and dirt, large stones).

"Cruiser" as it is

For a weighty full-size SUV frame structure LC 200 rides great on asphalt. But expecting driver's habits from him is as naive as snow in July. The steering wheel is "lazy" and "long" (but excellent maneuverability!), Responses to commands are softened. On a straight line, you have to steer from time to time - the car "floats" slightly in the dynamic corridor. On rearrangement, the diesel monster is capable of frightening ship rolls, significant drifts. The stabilization system works generally adequately, first struggling with front end pulling, and then with a skid. Everything is equally true for the modernized Land Cruiser with the only difference that it is more obedient due to a more favorable weight distribution.

In terms of spaciousness, expeditionary qualities, ride comfort and cross-country ability, the LC 200 is one of the most interesting full-size vehicles on the market. We suspect that the updated "cruiser" would have turned out to be nicer to us in the diesel guise as the most balanced. Toyota on heavy fuel in the "Lux" configuration is 24,000 rubles more expensive than a gasoline SUV with similar equipment. Against the background of a cost of 3,301,000, this cannot be called an overpayment.

P.S. We will not turn away from a pre-styling car - it is unlikely that among the colleagues who tested it there will be someone who would refuse such a car. Almost the entire editorial office now sleeps poorly.

	Toyota LC 200 - 2013	Toyota LC 200
pros	Excellent ride quality, excellent sound insulation, a set of modern "assistants" for off-road	Economical, torquey diesel engine, spacious interior, huge trunk
