The 2012 Toyota Land Cruiser is ready to assault the UK and now the automotive producer has announced the pricing for the facelifted off-roader, which is scheduled to hit the market on March 1. The Toyota Land Cruiser V8 is offered as a singe version (there are no other trim levels available) and comes with a price of GBP62,285.
Here are some of the most important new features of the 2012 Land Cruiser V8:
The vehicle keeps its 4.5-liter V8, but the engine has received a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and new fuel injectors in the common rail system, in order to comply with Euro 5 standards. The unit delivers 268bhp (200kW) at 3,600rpm, and a maximum torque of 650Nm between 1,600 and 2,800rpm.
- The world’s first Turn Assist, reducing the vehicle’s turning radius when driving through tight off-road bends
- Crawl Control, with five speed settings for tackling steep climbs or descents
- Multi-terrain Select, with five selectable modes to tailor vehicle performance to different off-road conditions
- Multi-terrain Monitor, providing a 360-degree view of the area immediately around the vehicle via four external cameras
- Tyre Angle Display, displayed together with the predicted tyre path guidelines on the Multi-terrain Monitor, showing changes in steering angle between zero and 45 degrees
- Variable Flow Control power steering, with a unique, dedicated off-road setting
