2025 Toyota Land Cruiser First Edition – Engine and Specs
The 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser comes with a 2.4-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with two electric motors. Hence, it is, essentially, a strong hybrid mill. This results in a total power and torque output of 326 hp and 630 Nm of peak power and torque. Performing the transmission duties is an 8-speed automatic gearbox. Naturally, this mill powers all four wheels as standard. In fact, that is why consumers opt for it. Completing the hybrid powertrain is a 1.87 kWh battery pack and the combined mileage is 23 mpg (approx. 9.7 km/l).

2025 Toyota Land Cruiser First Edition – Design
This is the most recognizable aspect of the new 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser. It retains its tough stance and indestructible build. Despite being a new model, the iconic design language is evident. At the front, it gets those legendary round headlamps which we have loved and appreciated all these years. In fact, the Toyota badge on the sturdy grille reminds me of the earlier models as well. The turn indicators are positioned on the sides of the headlamps. Down below, we get to witness the tough skid plate section along with a rugged bumper. There are compact fog lamps on it.
On the sides, the colossal hexagonal wheel arches are wrapped in matte black cladding which leaves loads of space for the large alloy wheels. This is necessary for wheel articulation and up/down movement during hardcore off-roading tracks. Apart from that, the creaseless side panel define the Land Cruiser and the black side pillars and door handles accentuate the imposing demeanour. At the rear, we get to witness the shark fin antenna, a roof-mounted spoiler with a high-mount stop lamp, rather subtle taillamps connected by a black panel and a sturdy bumper. All in all, even though it is the new model, no one can mistake it for anything else other than a Land Cruiser.
