"Big G can go anywhere in the world, and Land Patrol can pull Big G back from anywhere." While this is a joke, it also reflects the position of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class and toyota Land Cruiser in the hardcore SUV world. The Land Cruiser has a long history, is the epitome of the Toyota family, and is definitely a gem in the hardcore SUV world. In December 2016, FAW Toyota Land Cruiser stopped production, in the days to come, consumers who love it can only buy through parallel import channels, the price of second-hand cars is rising, some people jokingly call this a "financial artifact", and the new generation of models is more eagerly awaited.
However, the waiting time is not too long, and the new generation of Land Cruiser officially made its global debut in Dubai at 20:30 Bahrain time on June 9 (01:30 Beijing time on June 10). New powertrains, new designs, new technologies, come and enjoy the new generation of Land cruiser!
Summary: The new generation of Land Cruiser basically continues the overall posture of the previous generation model in the exterior design, and still has a strong recognition. In terms of detail, the front of the LC 300 is heavier and heavier, while the layering is stronger, while the rear part is more refreshing. In contrast, the GR SPORT version is more exciting.
Appearance part: Still "fortress"
When it comes to the interior part, Toyota's models rarely surprise us. The new generation of Land cruisers is not so flashy, but it can also make people feel what Toyota defines: a luxury travel SUV.
Summary: The new generation of Land cruisers has been redesigned in terms of interior, and there are not too many highlights in the real sense. Most of the functions are mainly practical and complementary, and the bells and whistles do not exist. After looking at the visible parts of the exterior and interior, I believe that what you really want to know is probably on the next page - the power part.
Interior part: the configuration does not lose the LX
The previous generation of Land Cruiser offered a variety of engines, among which the 5.7L V8 naturally aspirated large-displacement engine is often talked about by many fans. However, the era of large displacement is always coming to an end, and new power research and development is put on the agenda. So what are the advantages of the new powertrain compared to the old model?
Editor's comments: Toyota has shaped many classic models, among which the Land Cruiser has a special status. If the S-Class is the symbol of Mercedes-Benz, then the Land Cruiser is Toyota's cultural totem. The so-called "weight reduction", LC 300 although it loses 2 cylinders, but the power is stronger, with the body optimization, the whole vehicle is also lighter and more environmentally friendly. Although the new generation of models has undergone considerable changes, it still retains the charm of the previous generation. It is reported that LC 300 will be introduced into the country in the form of parallel imports, and the fastest will not be able to officially meet with consumers next year, no matter when and how, LC fans will have to wait!
