Toyota has released a special edition seven-seat Kluger with more than $8,000 of added features for just $2,300 extra cost. The special edition Kluger ‘Altitude’ is based on the seven-seat KX-R and is available in two-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. Features beyond the standard KX-R grade include satellite navigation with 3-D display, tilt-and-slide moonroof and a DVD rear-seat entertainment system with nine-inch screen and wireless headphones. The special edition Kluger Altitude model also gains 19-inch alloy wheels with 245/55R19 tyres, black roof rails, front fog lamps and an Altitude badge. The audio unit has a 6.1-inch LCD touch-screen, single CD player, Bluetooth for hands free communication, audio streaming for compatible smart phone or MP3 device, phonebook and SMS message access, voice recognition, SMS text to voice, SD Card Slot, USB input and iPod control. The satellite navigation unit includes SUNA traffic monitoring service+ and safety camera warning. Prices for Kluger Altitude start from $44,990 for the 2WD model. Kluger Altitude is offered in four exterior colours, all matched with a black fabric interior. Like the KX-R model, Kluger Altitude models have a 3.5-litre dual VVT-i V6 petrol engine and five-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission. Other features inherited from seven-seat KX-R include Toyota Driver Assist Technology, including vehicle stability control, traction control, Hill-start Assist Control and, on the all-wheel drive model only, Downhill Assist Control. Kluger’s comprehensive safety package also features seven airbags, including full-length side curtain-shield airbags and a driver’s knee airbag.
