Toyota LandCruiser 70
Since the 70 Series arrived back in 1984, it has largely stayed true to its heritage. And while it has evolved and modernised – to an extent – the long-serving Toyota 70 Series LandCruiser has always been popular with buyers, namely for its truck-tough reliability.
The model line-up includes a long-wheelbase TroopCarrier or a five-door mid-wheelbase wagon; a Workmate, GX or GLX Cab-Chassis; and a Double Cab-Chassis in Workmate and GXL guise.
The entire 70 Series range is powered by a 4.5-litre V8 turbo-diesel engine that delivers 151kw and 430Nm. It runs through a five-speed manual transmission and part-time 4x4 system.
In an update scheduled for late in 2022, Toyota will introduce pre-collision safety technology to its pick-up and wagon range, which includes autonomous emergency braking and pedestrian/cyclist detection. The GVM of the vehicle has also increased to now exceed 3500kg, placing the vehicle in the Medium Goods category.
