The much awaited 2012 model of the Toyota Land Cruiser is finally here and very much like its predecessors, the SUV promises to offer more than expected. During the last week of December 2011 we brought you the pictures, specifications and features of the 2012 Land Cruiser but since the information was not officially confirmed we were doubtful about a couple of things.
Today we bring you all possible and official information on the same car which is on showcase at the ongoing 2012 Auto Expo. As expected the company has not made any major changes but whatever has been changed is definitely worth considering. The following are the features of the 2012 Land Cruiser:
- First and foremost the car has a full-time 4WD system that instantly optimizes front/rear torque distribution irrespective of the type of path and surface.
- Complementing the All Wheel Drive system is the Multi-terrain ABS that continuously monitors engine revolutions and vehicle speed and therefore adjusts wheel-slippage irrespective of the type of terrain.
- Crawl Control System, a system specially designed for better control and stability on muddy or rocky surfaces.

- TEMS(Toyota Electronic Modulated Suspension)`to control the damping force of shock absorbers for a stable body position and smooth ride control.
- Hill-Start Assist Control that helps hold the vehicle whenever rollback is detected on steep slopes.
