Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) has officially introduced the Land Cruiser HEV, bringing the legendary SUV into the electrified era as the company continues to expand its hybrid lineup in the Philippines. The newest addition reflects Toyota’s commitment to offering a wider range of mobility solutions that cater to diverse customer lifestyles while supporting its long-term goal of reducing carbon emissions.
First previewed at the 10th Philippine International Motor Show, the Land Cruiser HEV combines the nameplate’s legendary off-road capability, durability, and reliability with Toyota’s advanced hybrid technology. Guided by the brand’s multi-pathway approach to carbon neutrality, the hybrid flagship gives customers another proven powertrain option without compromising the Land Cruiser’s renowned performance.
Built to Last. Born to Lead.
For more than seven decades, the Land Cruiser has earned a reputation as one of the world’s most dependable and capable SUVs.
Originally introduced in 1951 as the Toyota Jeep BJ, the vehicle eventually adopted the Land Cruiser name and went on to become a global icon synonymous with quality, durability, reliability, and exceptional off-road performance. Through continuous innovation, Toyota transformed the Land Cruiser into one of the most respected SUVs ever built.
The Land Cruiser’s Philippine journey began in 1990 with the arrival of the Land Cruiser 80, a generation that elevated the model’s comfort, technology, and refinement while preserving its legendary toughness. Since then, it has cultivated a passionate community of enthusiasts, with various generations of the Land Cruiser continuing to roam Philippine roads—a testament to the vehicle’s enduring reliability, proven performance, and timeless appeal.
A New Chapter Begins with Hybrid Power
The current Land Cruiser 300 has become the benchmark for full-size SUVs, equally capable of conquering rugged terrain and navigating city streets with confidence.
Powered by a 3.3-liter V6 Twin-Turbo diesel engine producing 306 PS and paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, the Land Cruiser 300 delivers the power, refinement, and durability that have defined the nameplate for generations.
Now, Toyota introduces an exciting new evolution with the Land Cruiser HEV.
The hybrid flagship pairs a powerful 3.5-liter Twin-Turbo V6 gasoline engine producing 415 PS with a 49 PS electric motor, creating an electrified powertrain that delivers impressive performance while embracing greater efficiency. The transition from diesel to gasoline for the hybrid variant reflects Toyota’s commitment to expanding customer choice through a diverse range of electrified mobility solutions.
The Land Cruiser HEV also features Electric Power Steering (EPS) for lighter, smoother steering response and enhanced everyday driving comfort. On the outside, subtle styling enhancements, including an Aero package with Jet-Black Garnish, give the flagship SUV a more contemporary and distinctive appearance.
Blending legendary capability with innovative hybrid engineering, the Land Cruiser HEV ushers one of Toyota’s most iconic vehicles into a new era of electrified mobility.
More Choices for Every Lifestyle
According to Elijah Marcial, TMP First Vice President for Vehicle Sales Operations, the launch reinforces Toyota’s commitment to giving customers the freedom to choose the mobility solution that best fits their needs.
“The Land Cruiser HEV is part of Toyota’s efforts in offering different powertrains that address our customers’ needs and lifestyles. Customers who want to experience the legendary heritage and proven performance of the Land Cruiser while having access to Toyota’s hybrid technology will find this car to be the perfect choice as their partner on the road. We hope the addition of the Land Cruiser HEV to Toyota’s wide lineup of vehicles gives our customers the power of choice when it comes to their mobility needs.”
