He’ll be testing out this all-new 4×4 both on & off-road to see if it has what it takes to compete with class leaders like the Suzuki Jimny & Mercedes G-Class! So let’s take a closer look… Starting with the design, the Land Cruiser looks seriously rugged on the outside. It rolls up with a boxy-style design, coupled with a huge rear bumper and massive windows along the side and back to help let loads of light in. As you’d expect with a proper 4×4 it also comes with roof bars as well as running boards along the side, while up from the grille design harks back to the classic Land Cruiser design. It looks great! Step inside and there’ll be no mistaking that you’re in a Land Cruiser. The dash design mirrors the chunky looks of the exterior, and there’s even padding on the centre console so you don’t damage your knees when off-roading! There’s a fair bit of scratchy plastics throughout the place, but that can be forgiven because there are SO many physical buttons! Almost everything is controlled with a button rather than through the infotainment screen – just like the old days! The infotainment system itself is ok, and there are also digital dials for the driver, too. There’s only one engine available for the Land Cruiser – it’s a 2.8-litre 4-cylinder turbo diesel that can produce 204hp and 500Nm of torque. This power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic gearbox. We don’t know the price of the Land Cruiser yet, but we expect it to cost in the region of £55,000 – £60,000. So is it worth it? Stick with Mat and see for yourself! Chapters

900hp Lotus Eletre R v Lambo Urus: DRAG RACE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VR51Wx8ZB8k

Sell your car for free with Carwow: https://bit.ly/Sell-Your-Car-For-Free-3003 It’s time for an almighty petrol vs electric drag race! We’ve finally got our hands on the all-new, all-electric Lotus Eletre R, and it’s about to face off against Yianni’s Lamborghini Urus Performante! So let’s check out the stats. Starting with the Lotus, two electric motors power it, and these combine to produce an incredible 905hp and 985Nm of torque! Power is sent to all four wheels, and this almighty EV tips the scales at 2,640kg! It’s pretty pricey though, rolling up with a starting price of £120,000. But that starting price is nothing compared to the Lambo, which rolls up with a starting price of £209,000! Under the bonnet, you’ll find a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 which can put down 666hp. It’s a fair bit lighter than the Lotus, weighing in at 2,150kg. So the Lotus is well up on power, but it’s also well up on weight! Will the half-tonne weight difference prove decisive? There’s only one way to find out for sure… LET’S RACE!

Sell your car for free with Carwow: https://bit.ly/Sell-Your-Car-For-Free-2803 It was only last week that Mat had to wave goodbye to his Audi R8 Spyder long-term daily driver. But fear not! He’s already swapped it for another Audi – an Audi RS7 Sportback Performance! Mat’s been allowed to spec this car exactly as he wants it, so in this video, he’s going to take you on a walk through exactly what he’s chosen, while also taking you on a drive with this new long-term Sportback! So for starters, let’s check out the design. Naturally, Mat went for the top-of-the-range Carbon Vorsprung pack, so there’s loads of carbon to be found on the outside, from the badges and side skirts through to the side mirrors and grille. Some of these are additional options that cost a few hundred pounds each, but there’s one option that costs so much more. The Ascari Blue matt finish paint comes in at around £6,000!! Step inside and the interior is oh-so nice. Even if the design is a few years old now, it still looks really smart. There’s a large infotainment screen in the centre of the dash, coupled with a large digital dial screen. Materials throughout the cabin are really nice, and the new RS7 Performance comes with an Alcantara steering wheel as well. When it comes to options Mat added, he went for the blue stitching throughout the cabin, coupled with blue seatbelts and blue stitching in the sport seats. When it comes to the engine, it’s powered by a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 that can produce 630hp and 850Nm of torque. It also comes with an 8-speed automatic gearbox and Quattro all-wheel drive. Naturally, the car isn’t cheap. With all the options added it costs a mind-boggling £143,000! So is it worth it? And more importantly, will Mat prefer it to his Audi R8 Spyder? You’ll need to keep watching to see for yourself!
