The 2008 Toyota Land Cruiser is both tech-savvy and convenient, with several new features that offer safety as well as reliability. Impressive new features include the Land Cruiser's available Smart Key System, which automatically unlocks the door as the driver approaches, and voice-activated DVD navigation system with backup camera, which assists the driver while reversing the vehicle, alerting of nearby objects.
The 2008 Land Cruiser offers several standard safety features, including front, knee and side curtain airbags, and a tire pressure monitoring system, which alerts the driver when tire levels are critically low. Its novel 4WD Torsen limited-slip differential can sense if a tire loses traction and redistributes force to the front of the vehicle when needed. The Land Cruiser is designed with the family in mind with its child-protector rear door locks, and Child Restraint System, including top tether anchors and lower anchor points.
Color-coordinated front and rear bumpers and frame-mounted towing hooks add to the sporty appearance of the Land Cruiser, while integrated fog lamps and UV-reducing, green-tinted glass make it practical.
Interior comfort is provided by the Land Cruiser's climate control and 10-way driver and 8-way front passenger power-adjustable heated seats. The Land Cruiser comes standard with JBL® AM/FM 6-disc in-dash CD changer, 14 speakers and FM diversity reception. Also available are Bluetooth capabilities, wireless technology and a power-tilt and telescopic steering wheel.
Each Land Cruiser comes equipped with a multi-information display with odometer, tripmeter, shift position, cruising range, fuel consumption, warnings, average speed, clearance sonar, and driving support functions including maintenance data. This Toyota's power comes with 381-horse power and a V8 engine, making it one of the highest-torque vehicles on the road.
Toyota's 2008 Land Cruiser combines innovation, safety and practicality, making it a must-have for the luxury-SUV buyer.
