Mitsubishi Motors UK’s specialised SVP Division
unveils the Mitsubishi L200 Barbarian SVP II
Mitsubishi Motors in the UK is adding even more style and
purpose to the multi award-winning Mitsubishi L200 with
the unveiling of the new special edition Barbarian SVP II –
the second vehicle to be produced by its SVP (Special
Vehicle Projects) division.
he Mitsubishi L200
Barbarian SVP II
builds on the
success of the
original limited
edition SVP
version and, like its predecessor, is
instantly recognisable with a
striking two-tone colour scheme
and significant appearance
changes to the exterior and
interior.
Only 250 will be produced with
half available in pearlescent
Diamond Black and the other half
in metallic Atlantic Grey. Details on
either are picked out in orange to
provide a striking contrast,
ensuring the Mitsubishi L200
Barbarian SVP II stands out from
the crowd in terms of road
presence as well as exclusivity.
On top of the generous
standard specification of the
Mitsubishi L200 Barbarian Double
Cab, the new special edition adds
T
a host of eye-catching extras. On
the outside, the pickup features
17-inch bespoke black and orange
alloy wheels with BF Goodrich all-
terrain tyres, covered by
aggressive wheel arch extensions,
together with a new SVP grille and
roof rails, both of which are also
finished in black and orange.
The fog lamp rings, front and
rear light bezels, door handle
recess covers, puddle lamps and
tailgate handle surround are all
picked out in orange. SVP tailgate
badging, a colour-coded bumper
and shark fin-inspired black side
steps complete the distinctive
look, while for added convenience
there are the additions of load bed
illumination and a spring-assisted
tailgate with soft-opening damper.
The special colour scheme is
carried over into the interior, the
Barbarian-inspired ‘six-pack’
leather seats with suede-like
‘Alston’ inserts having orange

accented panelling, stitching and
piping. Each SVP II’s individual
limited edition number, plus the
SVP logo, is stitched into the
headrests and there’s also a
unique ‘SVP’ embossed mat set
with orange piping. The distinctive
theme continues with orange
illuminated door entry guards and
front and rear foot-well mood
lighting.
Standard equipment of the
Mitsubishi L200 Barbarian SVP II
includes the Mitsubishi
Smartphone Link Display Audio
(SDA) system, which allows users
to connect to apps or other
features of their Apple or Android
smartphone through the
touchscreen or via voice control*;
rain and dusk sensors, keyless
operation, Bluetooth, Bi-Xenon
headlights with integrated LED
daytime running lights, cruise
control and reversing camera.
Power is provided by an all-
aluminium 2.4-litre turbodiesel
engine, while the rotary-dial
controlled Super Select 4WD
system, which allows drivers to
seamlessly switch between two-
and four-wheel drive at speeds of
up to 62 mph on all surfaces, can
be combined with a six-speed
manual or a five-speed automatic
transmission with steering-wheel
paddle shifters.
