Last crawled date: 1 year, 4 months ago

The MSX XC8 has reieved its most significant update since 1996. It gets new 6 cylinder turbo diiesels and a new V8. It also gets traction control and airbags (dual) for the first time. This is the 4.0 TDi6 which has a 4.0L turbo diesel inline 6 with 178kW@4100rpm and 690Nm@2150rpm. The 4.0L replaces the 3.7L twin turbo diesel inline 5, which had more torque than the 3.2L single turbo or the V8, which made it ideal for towing, but it was harsh, had huge turbo lag and had less power than it should have had. The new single turbo 6 has vastly improved driveability and refinement It has a choice of a six speed manual (up from 5) or auto (previously unavailiable). You also get air conditioning, Alpine CD player (although theres no cassette player anymore), bluetooth, diff locks, low range gearing and part time 4WD. The long wheelbase model gets a 250mm wheelbase stretch, and 200mm extra rear overhang, making it bigger than a single cab F 250. It costs AU$75,990, US$33,210 #130 #22 #32 #4wd #4x4 #5_cylinder #56 #all #auto #axle #basic #cab #chassis #cherokee #chevrolet #construction #cruiser #defender #deisel #discovery #dodge #drive #duty #engine #excursion #expedition #explorer #fseries #f150 #f250 #five #fj_cruiser #ford #g_class #g_wagen #gl500 #gmc #grand #h2 #hawk #heavy #hilux #horse #hummer #inline #jeep #ladder #land #large #live #luxury #metres #navara #navigator #nissan #off #pathfinder #patrol #petrol #picup #prado #q7 #ram #range #ranger #road #rover #seats #seperate #seven #silverado #single #six #smaller #speed #suburban #suv #tacoma #tonne #tough #toyota #trailblazer #triton #truck #turbo #twin #two #ute #v8 #wagon #wheel #wide #work #xc8 #xt8 #xterra #yukon
