Euro V-compliance for revised Toyota Land Cruiser

The facelifted 2014 Toyota Land Cruiser will include revisions to exterior and interior design and a Euro V-compliant engine.


Exterior revisions include a more prominent grille, a new front bumper which adds 20mm to the front overhang with no impact in turning circle or approach angles, new wheel designs and redesigned rear lights. 


New headlights, which are mounted higher prevent damage when driving off-road, feature integrated daytime running lights.


The cabin sees the introduction of a new selector dial for its off-road settings, a 4.2in TFT colour screen which provides new instrumentation, including angle, traction control operation and the status of the differential locks. Minor modifications to the analogue instruments and new interior finishes are among other changes.


The Land Cruiser’s 3.0-litre turbodiesel engine has been modified to reduce CO2 emissions slightly to 209 and 214g/km for three- and five-door models respectively.


Toyota says that it has modified the suspension for improved stability and ride quality. Standard suspension set-ups have revised damping, and models fitted with the Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System feature a thicker front anti-roll bar.


Toyota will reveal final UK specification and prices closer to the car's launch in early 2014.
