The vehicle tax for Toyota Land Cruiser 200 cars depends on the amount of horsepower in the car (you can find the exact amount in the vehicle registration certificate or in the vehicle passport), as well as on the region in which the car is registered. The value of the amount of transport tax can vary significantly depending on the region.

Depending on the modification, the Toyota Land Cruiser 200 can have from 235 horsepower to 381 horsepower. This directly affects the amount of transport tax.

Modifications of Toyota Land Cruiser 200

If you can't find a car with your horsepower, then don't worry, you can calculate the vehicle tax using the General Vehicle Tax Calculator. . Calculations of the limits for changing the transport tax are calculated in accordance with the current rates for the regions of Russia and are for informational purposes only.

If you bought yourself a Toyota Land Cruiser 200, then you will have to pay transport tax, unless of course you put a motor with less than 75 horsepower into it and registered all the changes with the traffic police (this happens rarely, but it happens). Residents of the capitals Moscow and St. Petersburg will have to fork out the most, these cities have the highest transport tax rates, but there is much more money in these cities than in any of the regions, therefore, I think everything is fair. So owning a Toyota Land Cruiser 200, anyway, will cost a pretty penny. It is also worth noting that tax rates vary depending on the amount of horsepower. For example Toyota Land Cruiser 200 with 110 hp. has one base rate, and with 210 hp. under the hood, will have a different (higher) base rate. Thus, the difference between tax amounts can be very different.

Who pays the vehicle tax?

Transport tax is levied on both individuals and legal entities. Moreover, the state has made benefits for the payment of transport tax to certain categories of citizens. Such categories may not pay vehicle tax on one of their vehicles. This includes the disabled, WWII veterans and others. You can see the full list at the link. At the same time, it is desirable to pay the tax on time, since in case of non-payment on time, state bodies charge penalties, that is, fines for each day of delay. It is worth noting that not knowing that you need to pay the tax does not exempt you from paying it, even if this happens in the form of any state bodies.

Why do I have to pay tax on Toyota Land Cruiser 200

The reason is very simple - in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation, the transport tax is paid by the owners of all vehicles whose power exceeds 75 horsepower, the Toyota Land Cruiser 200 falls into this category. The tax amount is determined by 3 factors:

• 1. The cost of the car (has weight if the car costs more than 3 million rubles)
• 2. Region of car registration (local governments have the right to set the transport tax rate themselves)
• 3. Vehicle power (for example, on a Toyota Land Cruiser 200 it is n horsepower, so the tax rate is multiplied by this number)

Taking into account all 3 criteria, as well as the official base rates for each region, we have prepared a report on the amounts of taxes in different regions for the Toyota Land Cruiser 200

How tax is calculated

The tax is calculated by multiplying the tax rate, the number of horsepower and the multiplying factor.

Toyota Land Cruiser in its various variations has been on the auto industry market for 70 years. For such a long time, the Cruiser lineup has formed a large army of fans around itself, which guarantees it high levels of sales every year. The latter, by the way, perfectly stimulates the Japanese automaker and it approaches the creation of new models of the Land Cruiser very responsibly. To date, the last major generation of the lineup is the 200th Land Cruiser. This car available in various configurations, the basis of which is either a gasoline or diesel engine. Due to numerous requests from readers of our resource, it was decided to cover in detail the Land Cruiser 200 on a diesel engine, which was successfully done in the article below.

Diesel engine specifications

The Toyota Land Cruiser 200 on a diesel engine is a complete analogue of its gasoline counterparts, with the exception of the power unit. The diesel engine of the 200th is represented by powerful and rather innovative equipment, or rather, the V-8 engine. In early versions of the SUV, it has a power equal to 235 horsepower, but later versions of the engine increased their power to 249 horses. An interesting fact, but such power characteristics were made by the Japanese specifically for Russia, so that the car clearly fell within the scope of the minimum tax. For other countries, the power of the Land Cruiser 200 diesel engine increased to as much as 260-270 horsepower.

It is worth noting that engines with virtually different power have a completely identical structural construction. The growth in the power of diesel units occurred only due to the improvement of the fuel and injection systems of the SUV. In stock form, the Lend-Cruiser 200 diesel has the following characteristics:

• the number of valves per cylinder - 4 pieces;
• number of cylinders - 8 pieces;
• volume - 4,461 cubic centimeters;
• power - 235-249 horsepower;
• revolutions at which the declared power is achieved - 3,200 rpm;
• torque - 615/1 800-2 2000 Nm / rpm;
• maximum speed - 210-215 km / h;
• acceleration to 100 km / h - 8.6-8.3 seconds;
• fuel consumption in the combined cycle - 10 liters per 100 kilometers;
• fuel consumption in the city - 12-15 liters per 100 kilometers;
• fuel consumption on the highway - 8.5-9.5 liters per 100 kilometers;
• motor layout - front, longitudinal;
• power supply system - direct injection;
• compression ratio - 17 units;
• cylinder diameter / piston stroke - 86/96 mm;
• drive mechanism - complete;
• work with the checkpoint - automatic;
• fuel used - diesel fuel (diesel oil, diesel);
• environmental safety standards - EURO-4.

It is worth noting that all Land Cruiser diesel engines of the 200th model are equipped with turbocharging. The power plant control system is electronic and fully automated. The basic principle of power is the flexible separation of diesel fuel by a throttle valve.

Comparison of diesel with petrol version

When deciding to purchase the 200th Land Cruiser, many motorists are faced with the question - “Which is better to take: a diesel or a gasoline unit?”. The question is indeed urgent, the exact answer to which, most likely, no one will give. Almost every forum about the Toyota Land Cruiser 200 argues uncompromisingly - a diesel or gasoline SUV engine is better, but how is it really?

Summarizing the information from the most visited sources and conducting a thorough analysis of it, we present some comparison of the diesel version of the 200th Land Cruiser with the gasoline version. For a more visual consideration of the comparative characteristics, it would be useful to pay attention to the advantages of one or another type of motor:

Diesel advantages	The advantages of a gasoline unit
Less consumption	Less whimsical maintenance
Ability to organize long trips without serious fuel costs	Easier operation
Reliability and stability of work up to at least 300,000 kilometers	Reliability and stability of operation up to at least 500,000 kilometers
good power	good power
Work stability	Work stability

Thus, the diesel Land Cruiser 200 is an SUV aimed at overcoming long distances with maximum fuel savings while maintaining all the engine power. Its competitor in the lineup, the 4.6-liter petrol V-8, "eats" a little more money for fuel from the owner's pocket, but at the same time it is less whimsical in operation and more reliable. It is important to understand that both versions of the Toyota model will last a long time, if, of course, they are properly cared for. In this aspect, diesel is more whimsical, because in winter it requires the mandatory addition of additives to the fuel, constantly needs a well-functioning fuel filter and some other subtleties of diesel content. In addition, both engine options must be maintained using only high-quality fuel, which, unfortunately, is very rare in Russia.

Important! As you can see, in terms of power and somewhere reliability, the diesel Land Cruiser 200 and the gasoline are approximately equal. Therefore, in choosing between them, you should mainly pay attention to whether you are ready for the quivering maintenance of your car, but with cost savings, or is it better to overpay slightly, but not so carefully control the iron horse.

Diesel tax

The cost of owning a Land Cruiser 200 on a diesel engine is the second nuance of this SUV, which interests motorists after its technical characteristics. Many believe that a fairly strong power plant will cost a considerable amount of money not only for maintenance in terms of maintenance, but also in terms of paying taxes. Is it really? Let's understand this feature of the 200th Land Cruiser.

Considering in detail the topic of taxation on the Land Cruiser 200, it does not cause much surprise. Depending on the configuration and other features of the car on a diesel engine, as well as the place of residence of the owner of the SUV the tax on it will be from 4,000 to 5,500 rubles a year. Depending on the current refinancing rates, the ruble exchange rate and other economic subtleties, the size of the duty is determined more accurately, but it will definitely not go beyond the previously presented limits.

As for the opinions of the owners of the 200 diesel-powered Land Cruisers themselves, there is no dissatisfaction on their part. People perceive this amount of tax quite normally and completely agree with it, so it’s not really necessary to be afraid to purchase this SUV because of the cost of its maintenance.

Important! It is worth noting that the tax on the diesel Land Cruiser 200, although not so small, is an indicator that is less than almost all of its competitors.

Fuel filter 200

A separate paragraph of our article deserves a very important part of any diesel car, or rather, its fuel filter. The importance of this node for modern diesel engines simply cannot be overestimated, because it is it that protects the motors from:

• premature wear, as it cleans diesel fuel from all moisture, which is quite a lot in it, and it, in turn, when it enters any diesel engine, causes increased detonation;
• smaller damages, as in general it carries out a comprehensive cleaning of fuel.

The Land Cruiser 200 diesel fuel filter is a fairly standard unit for an SUV of this type. It is located in the engine compartment, so any owner of the model can check its condition at a convenient time for him. It is important to carry out the verification procedure systematically, because the serviceability and stability of the fuel filter depends on how long your particular Land Cruiser will leave. Replacing a dirty filter is carried out at all service stations and costs between 2,500 and 5,000 rubles. However, given the simplicity of this diesel repair, you can carry it out yourself. The general algorithm of actions is as follows:

Important! In the process of replacing the Land Cruiser 200 fuel filter on a diesel engine, be sure to also replace the sealing ring located directly under its cover in a special groove.

Changing oil, air filters and other maintenance work

As noted earlier, the diesel Land Cruiser 200 is quite whimsical in its maintenance and operation. In addition to the importance of the constant cleanliness of the fuel filter, a diesel SUV needs:

• in timely and systematic oil change;
• in timely and systematic cleaning or replacement of air and cabin filters;
• in the periodic cleaning of the engine with special fuel additives (especially important in winter, since the moisture in the diesel fuel makes it thick and the diesel engine will not be able to function without special additives);
• in carrying out other types of maintenance: checking tire pressure, diagnostics of the fuel system, electronics for errors and much more.

It is necessary to carry out maintenance of the Land Cruiser 200 either when there are any problems in its operation, or when a certain mileage occurs. The latter, by the way, is regulated by the manufacturer. According to information from Toyota, the surface maintenance of the 200th diesel engine needs to be carried out every 10,000 kilometers (checking and replacing all kinds of filters, diagnostics of the vehicle’s basic systems, etc.), and a deeper maintenance of the Land Cruiser with a check of all SUV components - every 40,000 kilometers.

The procedure for changing the lubricant in a diesel engine deserves special attention. A Land Cruiser 200 oil change on a diesel engine is carried out every 5,000-10,000 kilometers, and it is checked every 1,000. It is important to understand the seriousness of this procedure, since a lack of oil will significantly reduce the life of a car's diesel engine.

Important! If your 200th diesel began to “eat” engine oil excessively, then most likely something happened to the engine. You should not ignore the problem, so it is best to immediately visit the service station and repair the car.

What to do if it does not start, how to light it

Due to the specificity in the organization of the diesel power plant, the Land Cruiser 200 has so-called chronic "sores". The most significant of them is the inability to start the engine in severe frost. What to do in such a situation and how to light an SUV? Let's try to figure it out.

It is important to note that such a problem occurs only in really big frost - more than 30 degrees Celsius, naturally, in the negative part of the scale. In order to avoid such a nuisance in winter, the Land Cruiser must be filled with the appropriate diesel fuel, the freezing temperature threshold of which is much higher than that of the summer type of fuel, and in addition to this, special additives must be used.

If a fatal mistake has already been made or the winter diesel fuel turned out to be of poor quality and simply froze, then you need to act in one of the following ways:

• The first option is to drive the car away in any way possible to a warm place where the diesel fuel will warm up by itself and in a couple of hours the SUV can be started.
• The second option is to change the fuel filter to a new one, as it is often clogged with moisture and paraffin from diesel fuel in cold weather. After changing the node, the SUV is simply obliged to start.
• The third option is to disconnect the fuel hoses leading the fuel to the engine and feed the last one from the canister by starting the car, and then return the fuel lines to their places. Such a procedure is guaranteed to warm up the fuel system of the Land Cruiser and the car can be started.

It is worth noting that in some cases the measures presented above do not help, so you have to act differently. In such situations, as a rule, it will not work to bring the diesel engine back to life without the help of professionals.

Probably, on this all the important nuances regarding the diesel version of the Land Cruiser 200 are considered. Whether to buy this SUV or not - decide for yourself. We hope that the material presented earlier was useful to you. Good luck on the roads!

Video review of the Land Cruiser 200 on a diesel engine:

The list of cars whose owners are subject to the law "On luxury tax" has increased from 187 to 279. The Ministry of Industry and Trade included in itcars that last year cost less than 3 million rubles, but due to the depreciation of the ruble, they overcame this price limit.

The luxury tax was proposed by Vladimir Putin back in 2012, when he was prime minister. He signed this law in July 2013, when he was already president of Russia. The law came into force on January 1, 2014.

The law establishes coefficients that increase and decrease transport tax rates for cars worth 3 million rubles or more. Increasing - by price, and lowering - by age.

Price is simple. For cars costing from 3 to 5 million rubles. a coefficient of 1.5 is applied; from 5 to 10 million rubles - coefficient 2; and for more expensive ones - a factor of 3.

But the age of the car is also taken into account. Thus, a car worth from 3 to 5 million rubles, manufactured less than a year ago, is taxed at the rates applicable in the region, multiplied by a multiplier of 1.5. For cars of the same price range, but from the year of production of which one to two years have passed, this coefficient is 1.3. And for cars similar in price, but aged from two to three years, a coefficient of 1.1 is already applied. That is, the newer the car, the more you have to pay for it.

Legal entities must use these coefficients when making advance tax payments from the 1st quarter of 2014. But for individuals, the increased transport tax will be calculated for 2014 according to the payment deadline in 2015.

In the enlarged list of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the category of cars worth from 3 to 5 million rubles has grown most significantly. - from 100 to 165 items. It includes an additional 12 models of Audi cars, as well as Chevrolet Corvette, Hyundai Equus Royal, Infiniti Q70, Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, Lexus LX 570, Mercedes-Benz E 300, Nissan Patrol (Base) and other brands.

Cost category from 5 to 10 million rubles. replenished 23 models, increasing the number of cars from 49 last year to 72 this year.

The number of cars worth from 10 to 15 million rubles. has not changed: it still includes 25 cars.

But in the segment of cars that cost over 15 million rubles, and where there were 13 brands, they added two Aston Martin models, Bentley Mulsanne, three Bugatti models, four Ferrari and Rolls-Royce models, as well as two Lamborghini and Mercedes- Benz G.

But the owners of Toyota Land Cruiser 200 cars no longer have to pay the luxury tax. This brand was deleted from the list, since the current official cost of the car is “only” 2,999,000 rubles.

The full list can be viewed on the website of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation (http://minpromtorg.gov.ru/). It is updated annually.
