Shaping land patrol framework
I believe everyone is very familiar with the Toyota Land Cruiser (hereinafter referred to as "Land Patrol"). It is the flagship SUV model under Toyota brand, and it is also synonymous with quality and reliability in consumers' minds, and even regarded as the benchmark of off-road vehicles by most fans. However, this model has been discontinued in China market.

Even so, Toyota has no intention of giving up this car completely. Recently, the latest news shows that the land patrol that has been discontinued in China market and has not been replaced in 1 1 year will officially debut in the autumn of 2020.

After seeing this news, most fans expressed surprise and curiosity. Surprisingly, Toyota Land Patrol, the king of off-road vehicles, even launched a successor model in the era of small displacement. As for curiosity, what will the new generation of land patrol grow up in the era of small displacement?

1 Large displacement self-priming engine was eliminated.

As we all know, at present, the minimum displacement of the engine of Land Patrol is as high as 4.0L However, in recent years, the domestic and foreign markets have strict requirements on automobile displacement, and a series of policies and regulations have been formulated to limit it.

Take the China market as an example. If Toyota wants to produce land cruises, then in addition to the pressure of double points, consumers who buy this car will have to pay a higher level of purchase tax, insurance and travel tax. This is undoubtedly urging Toyota to eliminate large-displacement vehicles, and it is also limiting the sales of large-displacement vehicles and keeping large-displacement vehicles such as Land Patrol away from the market.

Based on this form, it is inevitable that the new generation of land patrol will eliminate the large-displacement self-priming engine. It is reported that the new car will use the 3.5T V6 turbo engine to replace the 4.0L, 4.6L and 5.7L three large-displacement naturally aspirated engines. After the engine is matched with 10 speed automatic transmission, the maximum output power reaches 422 HP and the maximum torque reaches 600 Nm, which are 36 HP and 56 Nm higher than the previous 5.7L self-priming engine, respectively. In addition, in the future, the car will also provide a 3.5T V6 oil and electricity system similar to Lexus LS500h.

Although the modified 3.5T engine is better than the original 5.7L engine in terms of power performance and fuel economy, some off-road enthusiasts think that this is not a good thing, because off-road vehicles pay most attention to low speed and high torque, while turbocharged engines tend to have less torque than large displacement self-priming engines, which will greatly reduce off-road performance.

But what about the facts? The new generation of land patrol has solved this problem well. First of all, the data shows that the 3.5T engine of the new car can get the maximum torque at 1600rpm, and the power comes very quickly. Secondly, although the displacement of 3.5T engine is much smaller than that of 5.7L engine, it is not a small displacement engine in the automobile market, and it also has enough off-road torque at low speed. At the same time, there is no problem that small displacement engines are prone to turbine lag.

In addition, the 10 speed gearbox equipped by the new generation of land patrol can effectively solve the problem of insufficient low-speed torque. The reason is that, firstly, a 10 speed gearbox means that there are 10 transmission ratios. According to the concept of traditional automatic transmission, its transmission ratio range will be large, which will make the gear of 1 larger and the low torque sufficient, while the gear of 10 is smaller, which will save fuel for cruising. Secondly, this gearbox has a shift speed comparable to that of a dual-clutch gearbox, and works with the electronic control system, so it can not only provide more suitable gears at different speeds, but also understand the driver's instructions well and give faster and more accurate response speed.

In this way, although Lu Xun abandoned the large-displacement self-priming power system that he was always proud of, the modified 3.5T power system did not disappoint the fans, which not only ensured that the off-road performance did not drop significantly, but also significantly improved the road performance and fuel economy.

The improvement of highway performance is particularly obvious.

Of course, the new generation of land patrol as a replacement model is not as simple as just changing a power system. According to Japanese media, the new car will continue to use the current non-loaded body, but Toyota will adopt a brand-new design scheme, such as adding a lot of carbon fiber materials or other new materials, in order to reduce the weight and increase the rigidity of its frame. In this way, in addition to improving the off-road performance of the vehicle again, it can also significantly improve the mobility of the new generation of land patrol and make it easier to drive on the road.

At the same time, the car will be developed based on Toyota's latest TNGA architecture. As we all know, the first goal of TNGA honeycomb box concept is to improve the basic performance of products, such as basic elements such as vehicle driving, turning and parking. Although there is no specific information yet, it can be guessed from the performance of the new generation Camry that with the blessing of TNGA architecture technology, the quality of the new generation of land patrol driving on roads will be greatly improved, for example, driving on urban roads will be more flexible, without the previous heavy feeling.

In addition, the new car configuration is expected to be equipped with Toyota's latest version of various active and passive safety systems, such as collision warning, pedestrian monitoring, adaptive endurance, lane departure warning and adaptive far and near lights. The appearance of these configurations is undoubtedly improving the highway nature of the new generation of land patrol, so that it can not only climb mountains and cross mountains, but also walk freely in urban sections and become more comprehensive.

It is also worth mentioning that the appearance style of the new land patrol has broken through the tradition and is moving closer to the exquisiteness of urban SUVs. Judging from the pictures exposed by Japanese media, the headlight group of the new car adopts full LED light source, and its shape is similar to that of the current lexus LX570, which is very sharp. In addition, the side of the car body is also quite different from the cash. Draw a three-dimensional picture effect that is tough, rough and layered with a straight and tough high waistline, so that the new car looks very beautiful and is no longer a "big guy".

It is undeniable that consumers who buy off-road vehicles now will not only pursue the ultimate off-road performance, but also pay attention to the comfort and high speed of the vehicle. Therefore, if Land Cruiser wants to go further, it must adapt to the times and constantly change. Otherwise, it is easy to end up in Mitsubishi Pajero.
