Toyota Land Cruiser 200 in detail about fuel consumption
Content
The Land Cruiser is the most sought after model in the Japanese automotive industry. The fuel consumption of the Land Cruiser 200 per 100 km depends primarily on the type of engine installed in it.
Types of engines and fuel consumption
SUV Land Cruiser 200 appeared on our car market in 2007. Initially, these were models with a diesel engine. A couple of years later, Japanese manufacturers released a new model with a gasoline engine.
| Engine | Consumption (track) | Consumption (city) | Consumption (mixed cycle) |
| 4.6 (gasoline) | 10.9 l / 100 km | 18.4 l / 100 km | 13.6 l / 100 km |
| 4.5 (diesel) | 7.1 l/100 km | 9.7 l / 100 km | 8.1 l / 100 km |
Diesel engine fuel consumption
In factory specifications gasoline consumption of Toyota Land Cruiser (diesel) when driving within the city is 11,2 l / 100 km, although, judging by the reviews of drivers, the real consumption of gasoline on the Land Cruiser, albeit slightly, exceeds the declared consumption rates.
The fuel consumption of the Land Cruiser on the highway ranges from 8,5 l / 100 km. The lower consumption of diesel fuel is due to the absence of traffic jams and movement here at a more or less constant speed.
In a situation where traffic occurs both within the city and along the highway, the fuel consumption on a diesel Land Cruiser ranges from 9,5 l / 100 km.
Gasoline engine fuel consumption
The Land Cruiser, which appeared on our market in 2009, was already more advanced in terms of quality. The state of the body has changed (it has become more durable), some features have been added to ensure maximum traffic safety on the road. The technical parameters have changed - the engine volume has slightly decreased to 4,4 liters.
So, the average gasoline consumption for a Toyota Land Cruiser per 100 km, if you drive within the city highway, will be 12 liters, with a mixed type of movement - 14,5 liters, and if you are outside the city, then gasoline consumption will be minimal and will be 11,7 liters per 100 kilometers.
But, the above Land Cruiser fuel consumption standards are those declared by manufacturers, and, unlike the standards applied to a diesel engine, fuel consumption with a gasoline engine does not correspond to those indicated in the vehicle's technical passport.
So, we can conclude:
- A Land Cruiser with a diesel engine is more economical;
- less fuel consumption for a Land Cruiser on a country road.
Advantages and disadvantages of a car
The main advantages of an SUV are:
- a Land Cruiser car with a 4,5-liter diesel engine can reach a maximum speed of 215 km / h;
- fuel consumption of the Toyota Land Cruiser 200 varies by terrain;
- the impressive size of the SUV;
- advanced security system;
- comfortable lounge, which can easily accommodate seven people;
- large luggage compartment when folding the rear seats.
Among the shortcomings, the most basic can be distinguished:
- The fuel index of both gasoline and diesel engines significantly exceeds the declared standards.
- The car is designed to drive on a dirt road. On a flat surface, when cornering at low speed, it skids.
- The interior upholstery material does not correspond to the price policy of the car.
- It's hard to understand electronics. The presence of a large number of sensors and buttons makes this difficult.
- It will be uncomfortable for a tall person to sit in the rearmost seats.
- For any color other than white, you need to pay an additional amount when buying an executive class car.
Reviews of motorists about both car models differ from each other: someone is satisfied with a model that runs on gasoline, while someone likes a Land Cruiser with a diesel engine.
