Toyota is most likely to reveal the new-generation Land Cruiser by the end of this month, with leaked internal documents stating, “Due to Global Embargo, design images are not available until the end of May 2021.”
Images of the 2022 Land Cruiser were recently leaked, revealing a refreshed design language. It gets a new and larger chrome grille, sleek LED headlamps, chunkier bumpers, flared wheel arches, new alloy wheels, and LED tail lamps. While its butch styling has been retained, the SUV looks rather modern now.
The cabin should also see an upgrade with a new interior shade and upholstery. It could feature a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment, a 360-degree camera, connected car technology, and driver assistance technology.
It is likely to get two new V6 engines: 3.3-litre diesel and 3.5-litre twin-turbo petrol. It will also continue to be offered with a 4WD drivetrain. We are expecting Toyota to introduce a hybrid variant later.
Toyota is likely to bring the new-generation Land Cruiser to India in 2022 after its overseas launch as an imported model. It was discontinued last year itself, with its prices crossing the Rs 1 crore mark. If the new generation comes to India, it will definitely demand a premium.
