I never thought I'd say this - but the four-cylinder LandCruiser 70 Series is better than the V8. Paul Maric tests out the 2024 Toyota LandCruiser 70 Series GXL with the new four-cylinder diesel engine to see if it stacks up to what the V8 was known for.

Cost of Ownership
Maintenance is required every 10,000km or six months, whichever comes first. For a car that’s relied upon by so many, having to visit your dealership twice yearly is a big miss.
The first 10 services each cost $525 in the both models.
How it Drives
The 1VD-FTV 4.5-litre V8 turbo-diesel is still available in the updated LandCruiser 70 Series. It’s offered on almost every single variant, apart from the entry-level 76 Series Wagon WorkMate, which can only be had with the new 2.8-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel.
LandCruiser 70 Series models with the 2.8-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine are $4100 cheaper than ones equipped with the 4.5-litre V8 turbo-diesel engine.
Automatic transmission-equipped models feature a power/haul mode, as well as a second start switch which starts the vehicle in second gear for better traction.
A transmission guard adds extra underbody protection for the oil pan, while the breather hose has been raised to 900mm to assist water crossing performance.
