All-new Toyota Land Cruiser delayed

MANILA: The Toyota Land Cruiser LC200, which is currently on sale, has been in the market for a decade now. And this is the exact reason why the news of the upcoming new generation model excited a whole lot of people around. However, the excitement seems to subside as the model might see a delay in its development phase, followed by its late introduction.

The reason behind the delay is truly based on the development phase and Toyota is taking all its time to get everything right. According to a reliable source, the design draft for the upcoming model generation has been sent back to the drawing team, requesting further changes to be made.

Apparently, the design that was drafted earlier made the car look very similar to the current generation model. And since the company wants to make big changes in the new generation Land Cruiser, a new drawing draft is needed, with designing elements being a drift-away from the current generation model.

On the mechanical side, there are reports that say that the diesel-powered car is expected to be the same as the current generation model. Plus, based on the previous reports, the company is working on hybridisation as well. But apart from these, there is no concrete word on the powerplant just yet.

Since the designing is expected to be a major overhaul, there could be some changes made to the 4.5-litre V8 diesel engine too. On the other hand, the hybrid model could be shared with the 2018 Crown. If this would be the case, there could be electric motors working in tandem with a 3.5-litre V6 engine to churn out a huge power of 359 PS.

Having said that, the present generation Land Cruiser (LC200) appears to have a winning formula and Toyota might consider not to tinker with it. So it remains to be seen whether the number of changes made in the next generation model would be very high or moderate.
