Toyota Land Cruiser 300 with a new Liberty Walk body kit

Japanese company Liberty Walk has equipped the Toyota Land Cruiser 300 with a new body kit, making it more attractive and muscular.

The new body kit includes a number of changes such as a new grille, fog lights, and a new two-piece black radiator grille. It is an accessory that connects the lower edges of the headlights over the nose of the SUV, and the Liberty Walk inscription is located in the space between that part and the hood. There’s also a carbon bonnet, as well as fender extensions that give the SUV a more muscular look.

At the rear of the Liberty Walk are two spoilers, one on the roof and one under the rear window. Under the bumper there is a diffuser and trapezoidal exhaust pipes on both sides.

The body kit is offered in a variety of packages priced at $ 6,270 for the Light Complete Body kit, $ 8,580 for the Full Complete Body kit and $ 14,080 for the Premium Complete Body kit. The package will be available from the beginning of next year, and it was designed in cooperation with Sphere Light. A new set of Liberty Walk rims is also available for $ 5,500.

Alfa Romeo GTS

It would be much more exciting if one of the big manufacturers, like Audi or Mercedes, produced a car that could match the BMW M2 model. That could change from 2025, when the Alfa Romeo GTS should arrive.

Italian designer Guilherme Araujo has unleashed his imagination and is designing the Alfa Romeo GTS. With the retro design, the car looks different compared to the existing Alfa models, but still with the recognizable characteristics of the Italian manufacturer.

At the front is a set of simple round headlights with round LED daytime running lights. There is also the famous Alfa radiator grille as well as the corner bumper. The car’s stunning lines continue over the front wheel arches and bonnet which has a large vent for aerodynamics and cooling.

The cameras replace the side mirrors and the rear has simple LED lights and a diffuser, thus wraps up the car’s flowing aesthetics nicely.

It is not known what powertrain the Alfa GTS will use.

The most comfortable vehicles for tall and short drivers

Have you ever wondered which cars are most comfortable for short and tall drivers? Such research was conducted by Consumer Reports in terms of comfort in the car depending on the height of the driver. They tested cars with drivers from 155 cm to 188 cm tall.

The survey results for Fox News were commented by Mike Quincy of Consumer Reports, saying many models are not suitable for tall and short drivers because they do not offer adequate seat adjustment. Additionally, many trucks are difficult to get into, even when they have side steps.

When it comes to tall drivers, they are most uncomfortable in a car like the Mazda MX-5 Miata, which is to be expected. The same goes for the Porsche 918 Spyder, but also those like the Toyota Supra. What is surprising is that there is no place in the Jeep Gladiator and Wrangler, the even bigger Toyota Tacoma, and the somewhat forgotten Honda Insight.

If you are one of the tall drivers, you will not regret choosing the BMW 7 Series, X5 and X7, Audi A8 and Q7, Volvo XC90 and luxury SUVs Porsche Cayenne and Range Rover.

The Mazda MX-5 is not comfortable for lower drivers either, and they are not comfortable in the Jeep Wrangler, Chevrolet Camaro and a number of large trucks such as the Ford F-150, Nissan Titan and Chevrolet Colorado. Toyota Tacoma, Jeep Gladiator and Wrangler also reappeared here.

Shorter drivers are best suited, along with the luxurious BMW 7 Series and X5 and Volvo XC90, slightly smaller cars such as the Volkswagen Tiguan and the BMW X3.
