It is difficult to argue with the overwhelming popularity of the Toyota Land Cruiser 200 SUV in the Russian and adjacent markets. Of course, tuners are trying to unify cars, which has led to the proliferation of ateliers that offer their programs of improvements. One of the most creative variations was the design of the Ukrainian company "Auto Life".
The Auto Life specialists have increased the width of the LC200 due to the appearance of the Dictator body kit in the area of the wheel arches. In addition, the bumpers were revised, and the company logo "left" from the radiator grille. Identification marks of the "project" are everywhere: it received the official name Magnum.
The tuners paid special attention to changes in the interior. Premium leather in red and blue colors was used for the upholstery. The experts were so carried away by the idea of premium that even the ceiling got a new finish. The authors of the project abandoned the standard rear sofa, installing German armchairs from the BMW 7-Series G12 there. In addition, the carpet was replaced and an advanced "Shumka" appeared.
It is not yet known whether the authors made any changes in the technical part. The classic version of the SUV is equipped with several engines: a 4.6-liter 309-horsepower gasoline and 4.5-liter diesel, which is capable of producing up to 249 hp.
Recall that the official update of the Land Cruiser 200 took place not so long ago - at the end of September 2019. The main change was the emergence of a high level of protection against theft. The developers have solved the problem of hackers intercepting the signal from the key fob. For non-contact access, you will need to start moving, since a special sensor is located in the device, which does not transmit a signal when the key fob is at rest. The same circuit works for keyless engine starting. In addition, most of the elements were marked with special plates with the VIN number of a particular car to identify all elements in the event of theft. A special laser cutting system will not allow robbers to interrupt the symbols, since the plates are destroyed by physical impact. In addition, the new design has received a special black pearl color and excellent rims for the flagship Executive Lounge version.
