All-New Toyota Land Cruiser
Published: 2nd September 2002
Premium Sector Quality
The new Toyota Land Cruiser will introduce new levels of quality to the core SUV market – this is not just quality in the traditional Toyota sense of robustness, but also perceived quality in the look, touch and feel of the interior.
High quality seating and interior trim is used throughout with a choice of two interior colour schemes, luxurious ivory or sporty grey. Leather seating with a new soft finish is available on the top of the range five-door models.
A class-leading safety package to ensure maximum occupant protection is available. Two-stage driver and front passenger SRS airbags with SRS side airbags and SRS curtain shield airbags are available as standard across all grades on Land Cruiser.
For superior braking capacity, all models are fitted with ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) with EBD (Electronic Brakeforce Distribution) and BA (Brake Assist). TRC (Traction Control) and VSC (Vehicle Stability Control) are standard on the top of the range five-door models.
The comprehensive equipment list includes luxury items such as:
- Electric power seats & seat heaters
- Full dual zone climate control
- Cruise control
- Optitron instrument illumination
- Turn-by-turn satellite navigation with ETA (Electronic Traffic Avoidance)
- Full map DVD based satellite navigation system with EMV screen
(availability of the above varies according to model grade)
Packed With Innovation
The new Toyota Land Cruiser is packed with advanced technology to offer the driver complete control under all driving conditions and enhance occupant comfort and safety.
The new Toyota Land Cruiser is the first vehicle in the world to be fitted with Hill-start Assist Control (HAC). On ascents, HAC detects any backward slippage and slightly applies a braking force to slow down the vehicle, hence reducing slippage, regaining forward momentum and assisting the driver for starting. HAC will be available on all top of the range five-door models.
A second function is the class leading Downhill Assist Control
– a brake control system which works automatically on the
wheels to control speed and prevent the vehicle from slipping down
the hill out of control. The Toyota DAC is more precise and offers
better control than other existing systems on the market today,
thanks to its individual control of the wheels speed.
