Toyota’s iconic Land Cruiser returns to North America FMTNews FMTBusiness
The new Land Cruiser will be powered by a hybrid powertrain that pairs a turbocharged four-cylinder engine with an electric motor.
The trucks will become available in Japan during the first half of 2024, and shipped to the US the following spring.Having been absent from the US market for three years, the newest iteration of the rugged offroader will be narrower and shorter than its predecessor 200 Series — which was a full-size, luxury SUV.
For offroad and camping enthusiasts, the cars will come standard with a 2,700kg tow hitch, double-wishbone front suspension, center locking differential, automatic slip differential and an electronic locking rear differential. The hybrid engine produces 326 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque. When it was introduced to the US market in 1958, the Land Cruiser didn’t exactly take off — in fact, only one was sold during its inaugural year in America. But over time it grew in sales and popularity, slowly becoming the symbol of an adventurous, outdoor lifestyle.
