Land Cruiser 2014 Capable By Nature.


The 2014 Toyota Land Cruiser has a loyalty unmatched by any other SUV. The product of 60 years of global adventure, it's a sophisticated blend of off-road prowess, on-road comfort and unparalleled refinement. It also offers seating for up to eight passengers. After all, adventures are best shared.

5.7L V8 Dual Independent VVT-i
With Land Cruiser’s power and torque at your disposal, even the most 
inhospitable terrain will not intimidate you. The 5.7-liter Double Overhead 
Cam (DOHC) 32-valve V8 employs Dual Independent Variable Valve 
Timing with intelligence (VVT-i) and Acoustic Control Induction System 
(ACIS). These advanced technologies help the engine produce 381 hp and 
401 lb.-ft. of torque.
Robust Towing
Sooner or later in your travels you may need to pull something. And when 
that time arrives, you’ll be ready with the capable Land Cruiser. Its powerful 
V8, 6-speed automatic transmission and torque-enhancing gear ratios 
endow it with an incredible 8200-lb. towing capacity.[1] 
Trailer-Sway Control (TSC)[2]
Stability is crucial to towing and Land Cruiser has you covered. It features a 
technology called Trailer-Sway Control (TSC), which helps counteract vehicle 

yaw caused by trailer oscillation, helping keep you in command at all times.

2012 Hyundai Veloster

 
The all-new 2012 Hyundai Veloster is at once more practical and more adventurous than a typical sporty coupe—punctuated, from the outside, by an unusual three-door layout that features a larger door on the driver's side and two smaller doors on the passenger side.
Underneath, the Veloster borrows some of its underpinnings from the Elantra sedan, yet a redesigned, retuned suspension gives it a more nimble and confident feel on curvy roads—even though we're still not wild about the steering. Powering the Veloster is a 138-horsepower, 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that, paired with new six-speed manual or six-speed Dual Clutch automatic transmissions, returns up to 40 mpg on the highway. This setup's Achilles Heel is that it, quite simply, lacks low-rpm torque—leading to a rather gutless feel from a standing start. Get the engine revving, however, and the attitude of the car really perks

MERCEDES-BENZ 600 THE PULLMAN LIMOUSINE (1964)

 
The Mercedes-Benz 600 was a large luxury automobile. It was intended to represent the absolute pinnacle of automobile engineering, and when introduced in 1963 had few competitors. Production began in 1965 after two years of ramp-up, with most styles built through 1972. Modest production continued to 1981, however. During this time, 2,677 vehicles were made.The model featured many luxuries, including a complex hydraulic system which powered everything from the windows and seats to the automatic closing doors. The model came in several variants:+ A 4-door sedan on a short wheelbase, similar to a modern S600 sedan in layout.+ A 4-door sedan on a short wheelbase but with a power window separating the front seats from the rear bench seat.+ A 4-door limousine on a longer wheelbase featuring two rear-facing seats and a rear bench seat. Most, but not all, had power windows.+ A 6-door limousine on a long wheelbase chassis. This had two forward facing jump seats stationed at the middle two doors and a rear bench seat.+ A few of the limousines were made with a convertible top over the rear passenger compartment and were called landaulets. Production of this model ended a year early, in 1971.+ Two coupés were made (one of them as a gift for Dr. Uhlenhaut, the man that designed the car, when he retired.)+ One funeral coach (hearse) was made. This car, and the two coupés mentioned above, survive to the present day in the United States.
