The combination of the black wheels and the chrome-plated rim bases emphasizes the off-road character of the new edition, while the clear main headlights and indicators signal a subtle modernization. The characteristic exterior mirror mounted on the fender remains a striking feature of the land Cruiser 70. However, no major mechanical changes are to be expected under the hood. The drive will probably continue to be provided by the standard 2,8 liter turbodiesel with 204 HP, which guarantees its power over a Six-speed automatic forwarded to all four wheels. It promises reliable performance that is perfectly tailored to the needs of off-road fans.
