Toyota Land Cruiser combines excellent off-road capability, luxurious appointments, refinement and quality.Extensively redesigned for 1998, the Land Cruiser is propelled by the same 4.7-liter V8 engine that drives the Lexus LX 470. This twin-cam V8 replaced the Land Cruiser's old inline-6. The V8 and extensive chassis revisions makes the current Land Cruiser a much stronger performer both on the street and in tough terrain than the pre-1998 models.
For 2000, Toyota added electronic brake force distribution, active traction control and vehicle skid control as standard equipment.
