Auto Express
|July 02, 2025
Company insists that its latest 48V mild-hybrid system hasn’t compromised the iconic 4x4's legendary off-road capabilities

THE new Toyota Land Cruiser is getting a mild-hybrid system that the firm says is designed to deliver “smoother, more comfortable performance both on and off road”.
Every new Land Cruiser sold in the UK will eventually have the set-up, which is also used in the Hilux Hybrid. It combines the 4x4’s existing 2.8-litre turbodiesel engine with an electric motor-generator and a 48V lithium-ion battery, and can contribute an extra 16bhp and 65Nm of torque.

Citroen e-C5 Aircross
