Toyota Land Cruiser in its various variations has been on the auto industry market for 70 years. For such a long time, the lineup of "Cruisers" has formed a large army of fans around itself, which guarantees high levels of sales annually. The latter, by the way, perfectly stimulates the Japanese carmaker and he approaches the creation of new Land Cruiser models extremely responsibly. To date, the last major generation of the lineup is the 200th Land Cruiser. This vehicle presented various configurations , which are based on either a gasoline or diesel engine. Due to numerous requests from readers of our resource, it was decided to cover in detail the Land Cruiser 200 on a diesel engine, which was successfully done in the article below.

Diesel Engine Specifications

Toyota Land Cruiser 200 on diesel is a complete analogue of its gasoline counterparts, with the exception of power unit... The diesel engine of the 200th is represented by powerful and rather innovative equipment, or rather, the V-8 engine. In early versions of the SUV, it has a power equal to 235 horsepower, but later versions of the engine increased their power to 249 horsepower. Interesting fact but similar power characteristics were made by the Japanese specifically for Russia, so that the car clearly falls under the frame minimum size tax. For other countries, the power of the Land Cruiser 200 diesel engine increased to as much as 260-270 Horse power.

It should be noted that engines with actually different power completely identical structural arrangement. Strength growth diesel units happened only because of the improvement of the fuel and injection systems of the SUV. In stock form, the Lend-Cruiser 200 diesel has the following characteristics:

• number of valves per cylinder - 4 pieces;
• number of cylinders - 8 pieces;
• volume - 4 461 cubic centimeters;

• revolutions at which the declared power is reached - 3,200 rpm;
• torque - 615/1 800-2 2000 Nm / rpm;
• maximum speed- 210-215 km / h;
• acceleration to 100 km / h - 8.6-8.3 seconds;
• combined fuel consumption - 10 liters per 100 kilometers;
• fuel consumption in the city - 12-15 liters per 100 kilometers;
• fuel consumption on the highway - 8.5-9.5 liters per 100 kilometers;
• engine layout - front, longitudinal;
• supply system - direct injection;
• compression ratio - 17 units;
• cylinder diameter / piston stroke - 86/96 mm;

• work with the checkpoint - automatic;
• used fuel - diesel fuel (diesel fuel, diesel);
• environmental safety standards - EURO-4.

It is worth noting that all diesel engines of the Land Cruiser 200 model are turbocharged. The power plant control system is electronic and fully automated. The basic principle of power supply is flexible separation of diesel fuel by the throttle valve.

Comparison of a diesel engine with a gasoline version

When deciding to buy the 200th Land Cruiser, many motorists are faced with the question - "What is better to take: a diesel or a gasoline unit?" The question is really pressing, and no one will most likely give an exact answer to it. Almost every forum about the Toyota Land Cruiser 200 argues irreconcilably - diesel or Gas engine SUV is better, but what about it?

Summarizing information from the most visited sources and conducting a thorough analysis, we present some comparison diesel version 200th Land Cruiser with gasoline. For a clearer consideration comparative characteristics it will be useful to pay attention to the advantages of this or that type of motors:

Diesel advantages	The advantages of a gasoline unit
Less consumption	Less whimsical service
The ability to organize long trips without serious fuel costs	Easier operation
Reliability and stability of operation up to at least 300,000 kilometers of run	Reliability and stability of operation up to at least 500,000 kilometers
Good power	Good power
Stability of work	Stability of work

Thus, the diesel Land Cruiser 200 is an SUV aimed at overcoming long distances with maximum fuel savings while maintaining all the engine power. Its competitor in lineup- 4.6-liter gasoline V-8, "eats" from the owner's pocket a little more money for fuel, but at the same time is less whimsical in operation and more reliable. It is important to understand that both versions of the Toyota model will last long enough, if, of course, they are properly looked after. In this aspect, the diesel is more whimsical, because in winter it requires the mandatory addition of additives to the fuel, constantly needs a well-functioning fuel filter and some other subtleties of the diesel content. In addition, it is necessary to maintain both engine options using only high-quality fuel, which, unfortunately, is very rare in Russia.

Important! As you can see, in terms of power and somewhere in reliability, both the diesel Land Cruiser 200 and the gasoline are about the same. Therefore, in choosing between them, you should mainly pay attention to whether you are ready for the reverent maintenance of your car, but with cost savings, or it is better to slightly overpay, but not so carefully control the iron horse.

Many believe that a fairly strong power plant will cost a considerable amount of money not only for maintenance in terms of maintenance, but also in terms of paying taxes. Is it really? Let's understand this feature of the 200th Land Cruiser.

• premature wear since it clears diesel fuel from all the moisture, of which there is a lot of it, and it, in turn, when it gets into any diesel engine, causes increased detonation;
• smaller damages, since in general it carries out a comprehensive cleaning of fuel.

The diesel fuel filter Land Cruiser 200 is a fairly standard unit for an SUV of this type. It is located in engine compartment, therefore, any owner of the model can check its status at a convenient time interval. It is important to carry out the check procedure systematically, because how long it takes your Land Cruiser to leave depends on the serviceability and stability of the fuel filter. Replacing a dirty filter is carried out at all service stations and costs in the range from 2,500 to 5,000 rubles. However, given the simplicity of this diesel repair, you can do it yourself. The general algorithm of actions is as follows:

• in a timely and systematic oil change;
• timely and systematic cleaning or replacement of air and cabin filters;
• in the periodic cleaning of the engine with special additives in the fuel (especially important in winter, since the moisture present in the diesel fuel makes it thick and without special additives the diesel engine will not be able to function);
• in carrying out other types of maintenance: checking tire pressure, diagnosing the fuel system, electronics for errors and much more.

It is necessary to carry out maintenance of the Land Cruiser 200 either when there are any problems in its operation, or when a certain mileage occurs. The latter, by the way, is regulated by the manufacturer itself. According to information from Toyota, surface maintenance of the 200th diesel engine must be carried out every 10,000 kilometers (checking and replacing all kinds of filters, diagnostics basic systems car, etc.), and a deeper maintenance of the Land Cruiser with a check of all components of the SUV - every 40,000 kilometers.

Special attention should be paid to the procedure for changing the lubricant in diesel engine... The Land Cruiser 200 oil change on a diesel engine is carried out every 5,000-10,000 kilometers, and it is checked every 1,000 kilometers.

It is important to note that such a problem occurs only in a really big frost - more than 30 degrees Celsius, of course, in the negative part of the scale. In order to avoid such a nuisance in winter period in the Land Cruiser, you need to fill in the appropriate diesel fuel, the temperature threshold of freezing is much higher than that of summer look fuel, and in addition to this, use special additives.

If a fatal mistake has already been made or the winter diesel fuel turned out to be of poor quality and simply froze, then you need to act in one of the following ways:

• The first option is to drive the car away in any way possible to a warm place, where the diesel fuel will warm itself up and after a couple of hours the SUV can be started.
• The second option is to change the fuel filter to a new one, as it is often clogged with moisture and paraffin from diesel fuel in frost. After changing the unit, the SUV is simply obliged to start.
• The third option is to disconnect the fuel hoses that carry fuel to the engine and recharge the last from the canister by starting the car, and then put the fuel lines back in place. This procedure is guaranteed to warm up fuel system Land Cruiser and the car can be started.

Video review of the Land Cruiser 200 on diesel:

The list of cars whose owners are subject to the law "On luxury tax" has increased from 187 to 279. The Ministry of Industry and Trade included in itcars, which last year cost less than 3 million rubles, and due to the fall in the ruble exchange rate, they overcame this price point.

The luxury tax was proposed by Vladimir Putin back in 2012, when he was prime minister. He signed this law in July 2013, when he was already the president of Russia. And the law came into force on January 1, 2014.

The law establishes coefficients that increase and decrease the rates of transport tax for cars worth 3 million rubles or more. Increasing ones - by price, and decreasing ones - by age.

The price is simple. For cars costing from 3 to 5 million rubles. a factor of 1.5 is applied; from 5 to 10 million rubles. - coefficient 2; and for more expensive ones - coefficient 3.

But the age of the car is also taken into account. Thus, a car worth from 3 to 5 million rubles, produced less than a year ago, is taxed at the rates in force in the region, multiplied by a multiplier of 1.5. For cars of the same price range, but from the year of production which has passed from one to two years, this coefficient is 1.3. And for cars similar in price, but at the age of two to three years, a coefficient of 1.1 is already applied. That is, what newer car, the more you have to pay for it.

Legal entities must use the specified ratios when making advance tax payments from the 1st quarter of 2014. But for individuals, increased transport tax will be calculated for 2014 according to the due date in 2015.

In the enlarged list of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the category of cars costing from 3 to 5 million rubles has grown most significantly. - from 100 to 165 items. It includes an additional 12 car models Audi brands, as well as Chevrolet Corvette, Hyundai Equus Royal, Infiniti Q70, Jeep grand Cherokee SRT8, Lexus LX 570, Mercedes-Benz E 300, Nissan patrol(Base) and other brands.

Cost category from 5 to 10 million rubles. added 23 models, increasing the number of cars from 49 last year to 72 this year.

The number of cars costing from 10 to 15 million rubles. has not changed: it still includes 25 cars.

But in the segment of cars that cost over 15 million rubles, and where there were 13 brands, they added two Aston Martin models, Bentley Mulsanne, three Bugatti models, four Ferrari and Rolls-Royce models, as well as two Lamborghini and Mercedes- Benz G.

But car owners no longer have to pay luxury tax Toyota Land Cruiser 200. This brand was struck off the list, since the current official cost of the car is “only” 2,999,000 rubles.

Full list can be viewed on the website of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation (http://minpromtorg.gov.ru/). It is updated annually.
