Toyota Land Cruiser 2021: more powerful, safer and more connected

While we wait for the new generation of the Toyota Land Cruiser, which will even offer a hybrid powertrain, the Japanese brand is updating the current model with significant aesthetic and technical changes.

The main one is under the bonnet: the 2.8-litre 4-cylinder turbodiesel engine gains 27 CV, reaching 204 CV. It also adds a start-stop system, which improves the homologated fuel consumption and emissions. It is still offered in combination with a six-speed manual gearbox or a six-speed automatic gearbox.

The prices of the new Toyota Land Cruiser 2021, already including the 3,000 euro promotional discount offered by Toyota, are as follows:

• Land Cruiser 2.8D GX 3/5-door: 40,000 / 43,100 euros
• Land Cruiser 2.8D VX 3/5-door: 44,500 / 48,500 euros
• Land Cruiser 2.8D VX Auto 3/5-door: 47,400 / 51,500 euros
• Land Cruiser 2.8D VXL Auto 3/5-door: 55,800 / 61,500 euros
• Land Cruiser 2.8D Limited 5-door: 73,600 euros

In addition to the GX, VX, VXL and Limited versions, there is an NX variant, approved as an N1 category vehicle, meaning it is classified as a van.

Land Cruiser 2021: still a true 4×4, now safer

Without losing the qualities that make the Land Cruiser a true 4×4 when leaving the asphalt, Toyota has focused on safety and connectivity in this new edition.

As a result, the Land Cruiser range receives the Toyota Safety Sense 2 package, which includes a pre-collision system with pedestrian and cyclist detection, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, road sign recognition, rear cross-traffic alert and blind-spot monitoring.

Another interesting addition is the ability to integrate mobile devices on the 8-inch multimedia system screen through Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
