In January 1998, the "hundredth" Land Cruiser came to replace the "eightieth" Land Cruiser. By that time, the name Land Cruiser had already become a household name and was perceived as a symbol of reliability, endurance and cross-country ability, so this particular car was massively purchased by the UN for itself. Several new engines were developed for the "hundredth": a V8 2UZ-FE petrol (4.7 liters, 235 hp) and a 1HD-FTE diesel (in-line "six", 4.2 liters, 205 hp). Also offered was the time-tested 4.5-liter 1FZ straight-six, well known from the 80. In some markets, the 1HD-FTE engine was equipped with a bi-turbocharger, removing 250 hp from it. The atmospheric modification of this engine (1HZ), which produced 135 hp, was also preserved. The creation of the V8 engine was dictated by Toyota's entry into the American market of the full-size SUV segment (a "luxury" analogue of the "weave" was sold overseas - Lexus LX470, as well as Toyota Sequoia, built on the units of the "hundredth" Cruiser). Two boxes were offered: MKP-5 and AKP-4. Later, the machine became a five-speed. The drive is permanent full, with a low gear. As an option, a locking rear cross-axle differential was offered.
They tried to make the car more comfortable: the continuous axle in front gave way to an independent suspension on double levers, the steering became rack and pinion. To further enhance ride comfort and stability, Skyhook TEMS and Hydraulic Level Control (AHS) have been introduced to improve vehicle performance when driving on rough roads. Later, A-TRC and VSC systems were added, which performed well on the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 90. A separate discussion deserves the "foot" Land Cruiser. In fact, it was a deeply modernized "eighties", but in the back of a "hundredth". The car retained two continuous axles, had locks for all differentials (interaxle and interwheel), had a narrower gauge than the "hundredth", was equipped only with MKP-5 and only with six-cylinder in-line engines. It is not surprising that in Russia the 105th became a hit with fans of heavy off-road. Unlike the “hundredth”, it had a double hinged rear door (against the lifting one of the “hundredth”), the interior was more modest, and the equipment was poorer.
Land Cruiser of the seventh generation was subjected to reystyling several times, during which the headlights, radiator grille, lights were updated, and the configuration changed. In 2001, Toyota celebrated the model's 50th anniversary. According to the company's marketers, almost 4 million copies of Land Cruiser of all generations were sold on the world market. In honor of the anniversary, a special edition of these iconic cars, the "50th Anniversary", was released. Anniversary editions are distinguished by chrome-plated aluminum wheels, an anniversary emblem on the body, a leather and wood steering wheel, special door sills and gold-colored logos. In addition, the gear lever and doors are also finished in wood, and the interior is in ivory leather. The circulation of Land Cruiser - 50th Anniversary was very limited - for example, only 400 of these cars arrived in Russia. Sales started in 2007

The famous SUV is relevant even many years after its first release. The main advantage of the Land Cruiser 100 is the technical characteristics associated with its high cross-country ability. When driving such a vehicle, the driver does not need to think about how best to go around a bad section of the road - just steer forward. At the same time, the technical characteristics of the Toyota Land Cruiser 100 are not the only thing that pleases this car. Soft leather interior and stylish interior make for a comfortable trip.

There are cars with a gasoline engine (4.5-4.7 liters), as well as diesel six-cylinder turbocharged engines (volume - 4.2 liters).

Many people are interested in how much the Land Cruiser 100 weighs. If we talk about such a parameter as the mass of the Land Cruiser 100, then it is characterized by the following indicators:

curb weight - 2260 kg;
total weight - 3260 kg.

The rather large weight of the Land Cruiser 100 makes the car as stable as possible.

If we talk about such an indicator as the dimensions of the Land Cruiser 100, then in the most popular modification they look like this:

length - 489 cm;
width - 194 cm;
height - 188 cm;
ground clearance - 22 cm.

The dimensions of the Toyota Land Cruiser 100 are quite impressive, while the car can easily overcome any road obstacle.

Suspension and transmission features

The car has four-wheel drive, with a four-speed automatic transmission. There is also a complete set of Land Cruiser 100 with a manual transmission, and a gearbox with 5 or 6 gears.

The size of the wheels on the Land Cruiser 100 is as follows - tires 275/70 R16.

Toyota Land Cruiser 100: fuel consumption specifications

Since the dimensions of the Land Cruiser 100 are quite large, it meets these parameters:

fuel tank volume - 91 l;
fuel consumption in the city - 14-22.3 l;
fuel consumption on the highway - 9.4-13.3 l;
mixed cycle - 11.1-16.6 l;
fuel type - gasoline or diesel.

Land Cruiser 100 dynamics characteristics

Despite the fact that both the size and weight of such a vehicle are relatively large, the SUV behaves confidently on the road. He is not afraid of any obstacles, with the exception of swampy terrain (since the mass is large). At the same time, the dynamic characteristics of the Land Cruiser 100 are also quite good. Thus, a vehicle with the weakest engine can accelerate to 100 km / h in 13.6 seconds, while the most powerful models - in 11.7 seconds.

Japanese cars have always been distinguished by sophistication and uniqueness. Among all this diversity, one can note the Toyota lineup, which allows you to choose a vehicle for the most sophisticated motorists.

A bit of history

Toyota Land Cruiser has more than 50 years of history. The first vehicle model was released back in 1960. The entire model range of this brand can be divided into 6 series (20th, 40th, etc.). All of them differ not only in design, but also in technical characteristics.

So the Land Cruiser 100 (one of the latest models) was equipped with one of two types of engines:

Petrol. This device had 8 cylinders, the volume of which is 4.7 liters. An engine of this type developed a power of about 235 hp.
Diesel. A mechanism of this type was equipped with 6 cylinders with a volume of 4.2 liters, and its power reached 205 hp.

Features of the modern modification

The Land Cruiser has evolved since its introduction to the market. Today, this model has several significant characteristics:

Engine's type. The device is equipped with a gasoline 32-valve unit, which develops a power of 227 hp. The working volume is 4.6 liters.
The car complies with international EURO 5 standards.
The vehicle is equipped with an automatic 6-speed gearbox, which allows you to reach a maximum speed of 205 km / h. Up to 100 km / h, the mechanism accelerates in 8.6 seconds.
Fuel consumption in combined driving is about 13 liters, while the minimum consumption does not fall below 10 liters during extra-urban driving. If you are a fan of driving around the city, then you should expect the car to spend 18 l / 100 km.
The weight of the vehicle is 3.3 tons, and the towing capacity without brakes reaches 750 kg.

It should be noted that there are original top versions of this device that are not supplied to our market. They are distinguished by a more powerful engine and luxury performance. Toyota Land Cruiser is a luxurious SUV that meets all modern human needs and allows you to experience all the delights of life with it.

Appearance:

In appearance, it is not difficult to distinguish between the “cheap” equipment of the Toyota Land Cruiser and the more expensive one. The basic Standard equipment is designated as STD, it is very easy to recognize by the absence of side moldings and roof skids. The next configuration - GX, already has the above elements, but like on the STD, the rear doors of the GX swing open in different directions, but in the more expensive VX, the rear doors open up and down. Note that the GX package is divided into versions P1 and P2, P2 is easy to distinguish by the installed winch. Compared to the Land Cruiser 80, weave length has increased by 90mm, despite the unchanged wheelbase, the cabin has become more spacious thanks to a more thoughtful interior layout. The STD is fitted with relatively narrow 235/85 R16 tires fitted with forged steel rims. The GX is fitted with wider, lower profile 275/70 R16 tires, while the VX features a smaller 275/65 R17 tire profile. Outwardly, the “hundredth” differs from the eighty even more voluminous headlights.

Salon and equipment:

The steering wheel of the base Land Cruiser 100 is manually adjustable and angle-only, but the steering wheel of the Land Cruiser VX is servo-adjustable in both directions. When reviewing the equipment, we can conclude that there is a very big difference between STD and VX. So the STD equipment is equipped only with vinyl chairs that are easy to clean, as well as air conditioning. The machine in the GX equipment already has a fabric lining and an electric drive for all windows, in addition, in the GX, the back of the second row is adjustable in angle, the P2 modification is equipped with a sunroof. VX can please with electric seats and the already mentioned steering wheel, a leather interior for VX is a common thing. As an additional equipment for the Land Cruiser 100, a steering was offered that, depending on the speed, changes the number of turns of the steering wheel from lock to lock. The system is called Variable Gear Ratio Steering. At low speeds, the steering wheel makes 2.5 turns from lock to lock, but on the highway the steering becomes less clear, from lock to lock 3.5 turns. In 2002, the standard equipment included a CD changer with steering wheel control and separate climate control for all three rows of seats. It is worth emphasizing that the interior of STD and GX is more spacious, since in the trunk there is not an ordinary sofa, but two benches along the sides, thanks to which the capacity of these modifications is 10 people. When buying a Land Cruiser from the seller, you can hear a boast about the fact that his car is equipped with two air conditioners. It is better to refuse such a machine, because two air conditioners were installed on Arab modifications. The point is not only that for our conditions one air conditioner is more than enough, but that the pipes extended to the second air conditioner are laid under the bottom, and they themselves are made of aluminum - this leads to the fact that after several “salty” winters, pipes are leaking. The interior of the Land Cruiser 100 has become 70mm wider than its predecessor. At the same 70mm, it became more spacious for the legs of the rear passengers. After the modernization of 2002, the car received a new dashboard with a backlight that changes depending on the degree of external lighting. The luggage compartment with the third row folded holds 830 liters, it is possible to increase the trunk by folding the second row.

Technical part and characteristics of Land Cruiser 100

The above modifications STD, GX and VX have significant differences in technical equipment. The first two modifications have a more enduring fully dependent suspension, like on the "eighties", but in STD only the rear center differential is blocked, and in the GX all three blockings are not uncommon, including the front differential lock. The VX has an independent front suspension that improves handling and smoothness on the pavement.

The most prestigious engine offered for the Toyota Land Cruiser 100 is a 4.7-liter V8 petrol with 235 horsepower and 434 Nm of torque. This motor can only be docked with a machine gun. Note that initially a four-speed automatic transmission was offered for the "hundred", but in 2002 it was replaced with a new five-speed automatic transmission. The 4.7 V8 engine was designated 2UZFE and is famous for being the first V8 installed in a Toyota SUV. Fuel consumption 2UZFE in the urban cycle is 20-25 liters. In addition to the gasoline V8, a turbodiesel can also be installed on the Land Cruiser VX. The 4.2-liter in-line six-cylinder turbodiesel is equipped with a cylinder head with four valves per cylinder. The designation of this turbodiesel is 1HDFTE. Power 1HDFTE - 204 horsepower, and the maximum torque is 430N.M. A car with a turbodiesel can be equipped with both an automatic and a manual transmission. A Toyota SUV with a turbodiesel under the hood is not at all significantly inferior to the gasoline version in dynamics, but fuel consumption in the urban cycle in the region of 14-17 liters is quite acceptable. The simplest atmospheric diesel engine 1HZ "weaving" was inherited from the eighties without changes. A 4.2-liter diesel with two valves per cylinder develops 130 horsepower - this is a great option for residents of the outback, where there is no high-quality diesel fuel. Atmospheric diesel was installed on Land Krzer STD and GX. There are also gasoline six-cylinder in-line engines with a volume of 4.5 liters. These units were installed on the Toyota Land Cruiser 100 intended for the Arab countries. Gasoline power 4.5 - 224l.s, engine index - 1FZFE.

Unlike the “eighties”, in which gasoline engines had a timing chain drive, on all “weaving” engines, the timing mechanism is driven by a belt. Maintenance of the Land Cruiser in order to replace the timing belt should be carried out no later than every 100,000. The engine oil is changed every 10,000 km. Work on cleaning Land Cruiser nozzles is carried out every 100,000 - 120,000. The manufacturer himself stated the service life of candles at 100,000 km, but in practice, in our conditions, they do not always live even 30,000. There are no hydraulic compensators on engines. According to reviews and experts, work on adjusting thermal gaps should be carried out every couple of hundred kilometers, which exceeds the service life of hydraulic lifters.

Audio system installers and other specialists notice that the thickness of the Land Cruiser 100 metal is 0.6 - 0.7 mm, and this is not so much, so additional work has to be done for high-quality music sounding, which entails an increase in cost. Not so frequent, but still a problem that the owner of this all-terrain vehicle may encounter is a burst exhaust manifold. The fact is that the Cruiser's exhaust manifolds are made of steel, not cast iron, and if there are not so many problems with replacing the right manifold, then to replace the left one, it is necessary to remove the steering shaft. The price of each collector is around $500. The cooling system pump usually runs more than 200,000 km, its price is $ 200 - $ 250. The starter is able to live 150,000, the price of a spare part is $ 500 - $ 600.

The oil in the gearbox is changed after 40,000 km, at the same mileage, the oil in the gearboxes and transfer case should be changed. Even Dextron 2 can be poured into the machine itself, but GL5 class oil with a viscosity of 75 W90 should be poured into the mechanics, gearbox and razdatka.

On the Land Cruiser VX, the lower front suspension arms should be changed at 70,000 miles. Note that there are modifications with adaptive suspension. The adjustable suspension has three height positions: 170mm for highway, 220mm for normal clearance, 270mm for height. As practice has shown, in our conditions this system is not very reliable and it is better to refuse such machines. With a run of 100,000 km, repairs will be required - replacing the lower bushings of the front shock absorbers, it is better to immediately change the shock absorbers. There are cases when, as a result of off-road driving, the rear axle breather was clogged, which led to increased pressure in the unit and leaks from under the front or rear oil seal. As a rule, servicemen clean the breather every 100,000, so as not to get repaired, this should not be forgotten. Once every 100,000 it is worth injecting the crosses of the cardan shafts. The Land Cruiser clutch usually takes care of 200,000 km without problems. Sometimes owners are perplexed after servicemen offer them to change brake discs. The fact is that the initial thickness of the brake disc Land Cruiser 100 is 32mm, and the minimum allowable is 30mm, sometimes discs under a heavy machine wear out even for 30,000 - 50,000.
