Next Toyota Land Cruiser Prado teased for Europe North America; to share GA-F platform with Lexus GX?

2024 Lexus GX, Overtrail variant

In the 300 Series Land Cruiser from Toyota, the 3.5 litre biturbo V6 petrol unit outputs 415 PS and 650 Nm of torque, sending drive through a 10-speed automatic transmission. Meanwhile, the 2.4 litre turbo petrol hybrid – of which there is one that matches this description in the 2024 Toyota Tacoma – produces a combined 326 hp at 630 Nm of torque, incorporating a 48 hp electric motor which draws power from a 1.87 kWh NiMH battery pack.

Given its expected ties to the GX, the next Land Cruiser Prado should be close to, if not identical to the dimensions of the 2024 Lexus, which measures 4,950 mm long, 1,980 mm wide and 1,865 mm tall with a wheelbase of 2,850 mm.

Technology which appears on the Lexus GX – and thus a possibility on the upcoming Prado – include E-KDSS, or Electronic Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System that was first deployed on the 300 Series Toyota Land Cruiser, in which the system can lock or release the front and rear anti-roll bars independently giving the vehicle added wheel articulation, offering greater flexibility of movement during off-roading.
