The all conquering 4WD workhorses of the legendary LandCruiser range are known as the 'LC 70 Series'. This range includes the 4x4 Turbo Diesel Cab Chassis, Troop Carrier and the serious looking, working 4 door Wagon. Under the bonnet you'll find Toyota's first ever intercooled, turbo diesel V8 delivering a massive 430Nm of earth-shaking torque for serious towing grunt.
Interior
Supportive seating for the whole crew
The WorkMate & GX comes with the ease of textured vinyl seats and vinyl floors for an easy wipe down after the dirty work’s done. GXL grade comes with the added comfort of fabric seating and carpeted floors.
Exterior
Rugged good looks
Up front the gutsy design treatment tells you that this is the latest generation of the LandCruiser legend. The bodywork is wider to accommodate the bigger engine and the wider track. LandCruiser stands out from the pack with its protruding front fenders, a big front bumper that ties in just nicely with the grille design and headlamps. And that sporty bonnet scoop gives away the fact that there’s an intercooler under the skin.
Safety
Accidental Hero
The steering wheel is collapsible, should something nasty come in your way. Also, with the strength of a tough steel body, LandCruiser 70 models help protect you. Underneath that, a full steel chassis also makes for a strong, stable platform.
Mechanical
4.5 litre V8 that talks the torque
LandCruiser has more tow thanks to a quad cam, turbocharged and intercooled 4.5 litre Diesel V8 fitted as standard to every model in the range. A variable nozzle vane turbocharger ensures boost pressure continually adjusts in accordance with engine speed and other critical factors. So you have 151KW of power which is over 20% more than the previous class-leading LandCruiser 6-cylinder Turbo Diesel. As for torque, a huge 430Nm of grunt is available all the way from 1200–3200 rpm.
