In addition, there are black plastic wheelarch extensions, black roof rails and black anodised metal running boards, while a new six-spoke 17-inch wheel design, also in black, is included. Gone is the chrome-plated grille and the back bumper of the Barbarian, replaced by a satin black finish that complements the truck's metallic blue or black paint options. SVP stands for Special Vehicle Projects, and the newcomer gets a host of upgrades over the top-spec Barbarian that are designed to give the L200 a more aggressive look and improved off-road ability. Now Mitsubishi has launched the new Barbarian SVP special edition as a flagship for the range. Its combination of car-like handling, a long list of standard kit and workaday 4x4 practicality mean it ticks all the right boxes for buyers wanting a car that can combine business and pleasure in one smart looking package. We're big fans of the Mitsubishi L200 here at Auto Express.
If you do enough off-road driving to justify the new rubber, then we'd recommend the SVP, but the standard Barbarian is better on-road, while the even cheaper Warrior has the edge for value for money. The knobbly tyres add another level of off-road ability to the formula, too, but this comes at the expense of everyday usability.
The Mitsubishi L200 SVP looks suitably aggressive thanks to its black cladding and new wheels.
