The Mitsubishi L200 Barbarian SVP II

Mitsubishi Motors is adding a new model to the popular L200 range with the release of the special edition Barbarian SVP II.

Produced by the firm’s Special Vehicle Projects division, this this version of the Barbarian is customised with a two-tone colour scheme and upgrades to the already generous standard specification.

Additional features include 17-inch bespoke alloy wheels with BG Goodrich all-terrain tyres, wheel arch extensions and a new SVP grill and roof rails. This Barbarian will also get SVP tailgate badging and extra trim, including ‘shark fin’ side steps and a colour coded bumper. More usefully, there’s also load bed illumination and a soft-opening tailgate.

Inside, this special edition model gets six-pack leather seats with faux-suede inserts and orange stitching and piping. Each SVP II model also has its limited edition number and the SVP logo stitched into the headrests.

Inside the Mitsubishi L200 Barbarian SVP II

This SVP spec comes in addition to standard Barbarian features such as the Mitsubishi Smartphone Link Display Audio system Bluetooth, Bi-Xenon headlights, cruise control and keyless entry.

As with all L200 models, power comes from a 2.4-litre alumnium turbodiesel linked to the Super Select 4WD system. This allows on-the-fly switching between 2WD and 4WD at speeds of up to 62mph.

Order books are now open with first deliveries expected in May. The L200 Barbarian SVP II starts from £29,830 +VAT and is available in black and grey versions.
