Dvigateli Toyota Estima, Estima Emina, Estima Lucida

Toyota Estima, Estima Emina, Estima Lucida are the names of Japanese minivans from Toyota. Cars are very interesting and practical. It is extremely unfortunate that not all worthy models of Japanese manufacturers reach the European market, in particular, Russia. Exactly the same situation is observed with these three models mentioned above.

Of course, you can buy such a car in Russia and it’s not even difficult to do it, but these will be right-hand drive cars imported into our country. But despite the right-hand drive, in Russia Estima, Estima Emin and Estima Lucida are in demand. It is worth considering these models in more detail in order to form a full-fledged opinion about them.

The base model is Toyota Estima, while the other two are an attempt by the manufacturer to please the consumer in the domestic market, the thing is that in Japan the classic Toyota Estima did not take root precisely because it was bulky, but in the whole other world a large minivan from Toyota appreciated.

The world learned about this car in 1992, already distant for us. The car seats up to eight passengers, and on the side of its body there is a sliding door to the passenger compartment of the cabin. This car model was equipped with two engines. One of them was petrol and the other diesel. The model could be with all-wheel drive or only with a leading rear axle.

The choice of complete sets of a car is very wide.

Of the engines, a diesel 3C-TE was installed here with an increase in power up to 105 “horses” and a proven gasoline 2TZ-FE.
