For the first time since 1998, Toyota’s legendary rugged off-road model has been completely redesigned for this year. The 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser remains about the same size as the vehicle it replaces, but it gets a much more powerful engine, a quieter and more refined interior, and some innovative mechanical and electronic solutions that improve the Land Cruiser’s on-road handling and its off-road capability.
The 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser is now powered by a new 5.7-liter V-8--the same one that’s used in the new Tundra pickup--making 381 horsepower and 401 pound-feet of torque. The engine is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission, and of course, there’s standard four-wheel drive.
