Upcoming Toyota Land Cruiser to be fitted with hybrid powertrain

MANILAToyota has just revealed its upcoming Land Cruiser in the global market, which will come in a hybrid powertrain.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • What will power the new Land Cruiser?

    The upcoming Land Cruiser will have a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 gasoline engine mated to an electric motor generator in a parallel hybrid setup.
  • Where and when will the first hybrid Land Cruiser be introduced?

    The Toyota Land Cruiser will be first offered in the Australian market come the first half of 2026.
  • In a statement, the Japanese automaker shared that the forthcoming sport utility vehicle (which will become available in the Australian market come the first half of 2025) is set to combine the marque’s Toyota’s decades-long expertise in hybrid powertrain technology with the Land Cruiser’s “reputation for quality, durability and reliability.

    Per Toyota, its first performance hybrid Land Cruiser is set to deliver “improved power and strong towing capability from its parallel one-motor hybrid system over the existing diesel powertrain.”

    Powering the offering will be a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 gasoline engine mated to an electric motor generator in a parallel hybrid configuration — which is said to be provide more churn compared to the 3.3-liter twin-turbo diesel mill that can already give out:

    Maximum output (in horsepower)

    302

    Peak torque (in Newton-meters)

    700

    Further, Toyota noted that the Land Cruiser’s hybrid powertrain will be fitted with an electric motor that can dish out smooth and even throttle response in any road condition.

    “We have always said that Toyota aims to offer the right powertrains to suit our customers, and we are excited to introduce the first performance hybrid Land Cruiser next year, which will offer a level of capability never before seen on our flagship four-wheel drive,” Toyota Australia Vice President for Sales, Marketing and Franchise Operations Sean Hanley was quoted as saying.

    More details on the new Land Cruiser will be made available closer to its Australian introduction in the first half of 2026.
