Land Cruiser 70 Is The King Of The Road And The Off-Road
The Land Cruiser 76 is built to get you where you’re going, no matter where that is. All Land Cruiser 76 models are all wheel drive and feature a 4-position 4-wheel drive transfer lever to give the driver maximum control.
So, why is not offered officially (NEW with Warranty) in Malaysia. We have rugged terrain and off road enthusiasts. Lets hope we get an answer from Toyota Motor Asia Pacific office.
Anyway, making its debut in the Land Cruiser 70 Series, was Toyota’s celebrated 2.8-litre four-cylinder GD diesel powerplant, cranking out 150kW of power between 3000 and 3400rpm and an effortless 500Nm of torque between 1600 and 2800rpm, which is exclusively paired with a lightweight, high-efficiency six-speed auto transmission and manual transmission.
The Land Cruiser 76 was also offered in a 4.2-litre naturally aspirated diesel engine that delivers 96kW at 3 800rpm and 285Nm at 2 200rpm and a 4.2litre petrol engine that puts out 150kW at 3000-3400rpm and torque of 500Nm at 1600-2800rpm.
Fuel consumption on the manual transmission boasts a 7.7 litre per 100KM, and 9.8 per litre, for the automatic transmission. Whatever your preference, you can’t go wrong with the Master of Africa.
Redesigned And Redefined
The Land Cruiser 76 and 78 wears a bold new front fascia with retro-inspired looks that hark back to the original model. Classic circular headlights and LED foglamps complement the new bonnet, front wheel arches, bumper, and grille that proudly displays the Toyota name across it. Prominent side indicators complete the front redesign.
The wheel surface coating has been changed to dark grey metallic paint, while the bumper and grille has been redesigned to feature a black finish – all reinforcing the sense of solidity on all models. Additional plating has also been added to the VD and GD models. The Land Cruiser 76 and 78 models looks as good as they perform.
Classic With Convenience
The wonderfully traditional Land Cruiser 76 and 78 interior retains all its functionality with standard items like air conditioning and electric windows (one-touch for the driver), but with a few distinctly modern touches. The double cab features Bluetooth and a new touchscreen infotainment system offering Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as navigation.
All 2.8-litre models in the range get a new front console as part of the automatic transmission package. The Land Cruiser 76 and 78’s interior maintains its classic style, while adding convenience to match the modern world.
The Land Cruiser 76 is further enhanced with the addition of Toyota’s much respected and more fuel-efficient, 2.8-litre turbo-diesel engine and, for the first time ever, the Land Cruiser 76 is available in a six-speed auto transmission and also a manual transmission.
