  • Have You Heard About 2016 Toyota Tacoma? It’s the Best Tacoma Ever!

    2016 Toyota Tacoma Front View2016 Toyota Tacoma has surprised us with additions for the new model year, which are more than satisfactory. The car has been literally rebuilt, both in terms of interior and exterior. In addition, it also features new engine and enhanced suspension tuning. Regarded as the toughest and most durable pickup in the segment, the new generation Tacoma continues the legacy of the famous Toyota trucks. In fact, the company even says that this it’s the best Tacoma ever, inside and out.

    Tough and Rough

    Tough and rough are two synonym words for the new generation Tacoma. The reason for this is that the frame has been reinforced with high strength steel and this has resulted in enhancing its rigidity. The same material was also integrated into the body shell. What is more, the suspension was fine-tuned to make sure that the ride is smoother on the road, while off-road it still offers more capability.

    Two Drivetrains

    2016 Toyota Tacoma V6 Engine

    2016 Tacoma will be made available with two engines. The first one is the 2.7-liter DOHC four-cylinder with VVT-I, which produces 159 horsepower (117 kW) and 244 Nm (180 lb.-ft.) of torque at 4000 rpm. Its EPA fuel economy has been estimated 19/23/21 mpg city/highway/combined mpg for the 4×2 with an automatic transmission. The estimated fuel efficiency for the 4×4 with the manual and automatic transmission is 19/21/20 mpg and 19/22/20 mpg, respectively.

    SEE ALSO: Toyota to Premiere Tacoma and RAV4 Hybrid in New York   

    Tacoma can be also equipped with V6 powerplant. The unit is 3.5-liter Atkinson cycle with Variable Valve Timing with Intelligent Wider Intake equipped with Toyota’s D-4S technology. The latter features both direct and port fuel injection. The V6 generates 278 horsepower (204 kW) and 359 Nm (265 lb.-ft.) of torque at 4600 rpm. This is an increase of 42 horses over the previous V6. This engine achieves 19/24/21 mpg in the city/highway/combined cycles for the 4×2 automatic. The estimated mpg for the 4×4 manual is 17/21/19, while for the automatic is 18/23/20.

    There is also a new six-speed automatic transmission with electronic shift delivering quick and easy shifting. Two other options are available for the V6 – the six-speed manual transmission and the four-cylinder – the five-speed manual.

    The next great news is that if one equips the truck with the V6 Tow Package, the new Tacoma can tow up to 6,800 lbs. This is an impressive increase of 300 lbs. over the previous V6.

    Style is Found on the Outside…

    2016 Toyota Tacoma Side View

    Hexagonal grille, positioned a little bit upper, more muscular hood and four new wheel designs ranging from 16 to 18 inches are just a few of the changes in the design of the 2016 Tacoma. There are also noticeable high-tech headlights with projection beam lamps and available LED DRLs.

    At the rear, there is a new locking tailgate with integrated spoiler for improved aerodynamics and a stamped Tacoma logo. The tailgate also includes lowering feature for a slow retraction. Toyota has even created for the first time ever an available factory-installed tri-fold hard tonneau cover.

    … And on the Inside

    2016 Toyota Tacoma Interior

    The interior of the 2016 Toyota Tacoma is athletic and rough. The instrument panel features a sporty design theme for a more driver-focused experience. Soft-wrapped trim and metallic accents are the starting point for an array of available premium features like the Qi wireless charging, smart key with push-button start and leather-trimmed seats.

    The new truck is also quieter than before. The reason for this is that all seals were improved and a multi-layer acoustic windshield and sound-absorbing headliner were added. At last, there is a floor silencer pad which also minimizes road noise.

    Plenty of Configurations and Grades

    The vehicle will be offered with 29 different configurations in two cab types: extended Access Cab and four-door Double Cab, each of which will be available in both 4×2 and 4×4 configurations. The five model grades include the following: SR, SR5, TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road and top of the line Limited.

    Furthermore, Tacoma offers plenty of choices when it comes to individualizing a truck. As a matter of fact, Toyota has offered nine core packages: SR Utility Package, SR Convenience Package, four levels of the SR5 Appearance Package, and three levels of Premium & Technology Packages.

    Pricing is not Surprising

    The price tag for the 2016 Toyota Tacoma 4×2 begins at $23,300 USD, while for the 4×4 starts at $24,825 USD. Prices range up to $37,820 USD.

Back then, the first images were revealed showing how cool this non-conventional cabrio looks like. In addition to this, Lamborghini also opened the orders for the car. Now, the supercar has been officially unveiled and showed to the public at the famous event ‘The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering’.

    Staggering Performance

    At the event, the representatives of the brand announced that the special car will be available in a limited run of 500 units worldwide. Being the first open-top Lamborghini to bear the name SuperVeloce, this car has some unique characteristics. Follow me as I tell you more about it.

    SEE ALSO: 2017 Lamborghini Aventador SuperVeloce Roadster And the First Images

    We all know that the SuperVeloce family offers greater performance. This specific example here delivers even better power output with an increase of 50 hp resulting in a total of 750 hp (552 kW) at 8,400 rpm. The optimum torque has been estimated at 690 Nm (509 lb-ft).

    If you wonder about the acceleration time, there are no surprises but the familiar 2.9 seconds for the 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) sprint. The top speed is estimated to be more than 350 km/h (217 mph).

    Lamborghini Aventador SuperVeloce Roadster can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and can produce up to 750HP!

    Responsible for this staggering performance is the naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine. It is connected to the innovative 7-speed ISR transmission, which transfers the power to all four wheels through a Haldex Generation IV 4WD system. Just like its coupe sibling, this open-top SV Lamborghini also benefits from the adaptive Magneto Rheological Suspension, a pushrod damping system and Lamborghini Dynamic Steering (LDS), thus ensuring there are better driving dynamics.

    Given that the SuperVeloce Roadster has a dry weight of 1,575 kg (3,472 lb), being 50 kg (110 lbs) lighter compared to the Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster, this means that this unique vehicle has an exceptional power-to-weight ratio of just 2,1 kg/hp (4,6 lb/hp).

    Better than the SV Coupe?

    2017 Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 SuperVeloce Roadster Interior

In similarity to the Aventador LP 700-4 Roadster, the SV Rodster has also received the two-piece hardtop made from carbon fiber and technologies like the RTM and Forged Composite.

    There are exactly two roof parts, each of which weighs a little less than six kilograms (13.2 lb) and can be stowed easily in the luggage compartment. They are in perfect harmony with the monocoque, which is also made from carbon fiber.

    Pricing and Deliveries

  • Toyota Announces Substantial Changes for 2016 Land Cruiser Facelift [VIDEO]

    2016 Toyota Land Cruiser Facelift Front View2016 Toyota Land Cruiser Facelift is now here offering substantial updates. It gains more in terms of interior and exterior styling, updates regarding the engines and performance as well as safety improvements. For example, the appearance of the popular vehicle is now more modern and athletic, while the interior benefits from soft-touch surfaces, revised instrument cluster and controls. But let’s see exactly what has happened to this icon.

    Exterior

    Beginning with the exterior, the designers have obviously kept the emblematic visual appearance. Some of the substantial changes include the grille, headlamps, bumper, fenders and bonnet. Precisely, the grille now features hexagonal frame and triple horizontal bars, resulting in more aggressive stance.

    SEE ALSO: Land Cruiser Will Come With New Engine And Additional Gadgets

    This is further emphasized by the subtle scooping in the centre of the bonnet and the convex shapes that extend to the front. Headlamps and front corners set back from the grille, round out the front end design.

    At the sides we see protection moldings and door handles with slightly different appearance. At the rear the revisions include new bumper, upper tailgate panel as well as combination lamps, reflectors and mudguards.

    Moreover, adding to the palette of exterior colors are two new shades: Copper Brown and Onyx Blue. They will be offered as an option on all grades except GX.

    Interior

    2016 Toyota Land Cruiser Facelift Interior

    The cabin of the Land Cruiser adopts soft padding for areas that directly contact occupants’ limbs and support their bodies. There are also changes to the switches and displays for the audio, air-conditioning and driver-related functions, which aim to achieve more convenient utilization.

    For example, the centre cluster has received a storage area and a 12V outlet. Only the Sahara trim gets a wireless charger. Another change is found in both VX and Sahara grades, which adopt Optitron instrument cluster with 4.2-inch thin-film transistor colour Multi Information Display. These trim levels also gain Electro Multi Vision and Navigation unit with nine-inch display screen.

    The interior colors are different for each grade. The GX is trimmed with grey fabric, while the GXL gets grey or beige fabric. The customers, who will choose the VX and Sahara trims, will have the option of selecting black or beige for their leather-accented interiors. And note that the GX is a 5-seater, while the diesel VX and Sahara are 7-seaters. All other grades have 8 seats.

    Drivetrains

    2016 Toyota Land Cruiser Facelift V8 Engine

    Two powerful V8 engines define the range of available drivetrains of the Land Cruiser. They are now better due to a substantial revision, resulting in more power and optimized efficiency. Both the twin-turbo diesel and its petrol alternative show better fuel consumption and tighter Euro 5 emissions.

    To go into details, the 4.5-litre twin-turbo diesel unit benefits from new injectors, revised mapping and a diesel particulate filter (DPF). The latter has been fitted with a guard to protect it over rough roads.

    In addition, the changes to this drivetrain include also increased power output up to 272 hp (200 kW) and the same torque of 650 Nm (480 lb-ft). Improvement of 8 percent is seen in the fuel economy and emissions, showing 9.5 litres per 100km.

    The 4.6-litre petrol V8 engine gets updates to its air-injection system in order to achieve reduced emissions. The variable valve timing on the inlet and exhaust ports helps this engine maintain 309 hp (227 kW) and 439 Nm (324 lb-ft) of torque. Fuel economy and emissions have been also improved but Toyota didn’t release any specific numbers.

    Safety Features

    2016 Toyota Land Cruiser Facelift Side View

    Regarding the safety, the top of the LandCruiser 200 range, the Sahara trim, receives a package of advanced features. An instance is the ability to prevent or reduce the severity of a collision. Called Pre-Collision Safety, this system warns the driver of a possible collision and automatically applies the brakes.

    On the other hand, Lane Departure Alert helps in avoiding collisions by warning the driver in case the vehicle is about to move unintentionally across lanes without using the turn signals.

    Sahara also gets radar, sensors and front camera which are utilized to detect other road users and lane markings. Dynamic Radar Cruise Control and Automatic High Beam are the other two features new to the Land Cruiser 200 range.

    LandCruiser Line-up

    Featured in Land Cruiser’s line-up there are a total of four grades. GX remains the diesel-only model, while the GXL, VX and Sahara can be specified with petrol or diesel engines. Both units are fitted with six-speed automatic transmission.

    2016 Toyota Land Cruiser Facelift can be currently ordered in Japan. It is scheduled to go on sale in Australia in the second half of October. Other markets will be announced soon. Stay tuned!
