If money plays only minor importance, the supply of automotive oddity is quite remarkable. Powerful inflated and lowered full-size SUV this among the favorite object of the tuner, aesthetics is the focus, not directly. The Japanese company of invader technologies from Nagoya is a new provider in this category.
First complete vehicle from the 2009 based tuning company is now the invader L60. It is based on the Lexus LX570 - Germany for understandable reasons not officially offered in-, a luxury branch of the large Toyota Land Cruiser V8, developed especially for the United States. Base engine is a 5.7 liter of measuring V8-cylinder petrol engine with 383 HP SAE
Where also the first tuning work of invader comes in: against uprated Porsche Cayenne and BMW X to be 6, is pushing the eight with compressor, new engine electronics and high-performance exhaust system to 600 HP. Despite the considerable weight (2.7 metric tons on the scales already brings the base car) this should suffice to manufacturer's instructions to speed up the invader L60 within six seconds from zero to 100.
To set the Engine Tuning appropriately dramatic scene, there is a tiefergelegtes sports suspension, 22-inch wheels, a dramatically increased six piston brake system and a wide body kit with outriggers, new apron to the rear, as well as a bug modeled forward. There are not dissimilar openings auxiliary LED headlights in torpedo tubes.
The Interior is hardly to the exterior styling on extravagance. Leather and trim colors are freely selectable. As one of the two first built models with an exceptional red beige combination shines, to the outside in addition contrasted with Golden wheels. Carbon is also abundant used, among other things the Panel of centre console, the gear lever and on the steering wheel.
The Powertrain itself nothing is changed, so the invader travels continue with the selectable area reduction of Lexus LX570 through life - a rather verzichtbares in his future detail. The first series of L60 is limited to 100 copies. A mass distribution is unlikely given the price anyway: this is according to invader sales Chief Dimitri Krivtsov at around 250,000 euros. This however does not take account of additional customizations.
Its European Premiere celebrates the invader L60 in March at the Geneva Motor Show.
