Spy Shots: 2009 Toyota Land Cruiser
February 13, 2007 7:06PM by Michael Savio
Caught again by spy photographers during testing in Australia, the next-generation Toyota Land Cruiser updates the styling of the current models, but is longer, lower, and wider than the current model. Spy photographers say the Land Cruiser — and the new Lexus LX — will get an air or hydraulic suspension which lowers the vehicle when the ignition is turned off.
There are no specific details about powerplants but Toyota’s new 381-hp 5.7L V8 and new six-speed automatic are expected in the States. Other gasoline engines will be available in other part of the world. The Land Cruiser may even end up with Toyota’s new 4.5L common-rail V8 turbodiesel.
The Toyota Land Cruiser is expected to be unveiled at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show.
