The current model Land Cruiser adopts an innovative frame based on the concept of TNGA, and uses ultra-high-tensile steel throughout the frame to ensure robustness and high rigidity, while at the same time realizing weight reduction, quietness and driving performance. We are improving quality.

In addition, by changing the mounting position of the powertrain, we have achieved a lower center of gravity and improved front and rear weight distribution, and we have also adopted a newly developed suspension to improve steering stability and ride comfort. That should be the point.

Land cruiser with excellent running performance

The Land Cruiser is a full-fledged cross-country vehicle that emphasizes drivability and durability, so it is not that fuel efficient, but it is significantly lighter than the conventional model and has a downsized engine that improves fuel efficiency and environmental performance. are also considered.

The Land Cruiser is attractive for its ability to run on rough roads that cannot be replaced by other cars, but because it is a large vehicle, maintenance costs tend to be high, so it is recommended to check fuel efficiency.
