Toyota expands Land Cruiser Commercial range

Toyota has added a new, higher-specification Active model to its Land Cruiser Commercial range.

The new Land Cruiser Commercial Active

On sale now and starting first deliveries in March, the Active version joins the Land Cruiser Commercial Utility, which was launched in 2018 to target customers looking for practicality and off-road capability, and adds extra equipment features.

The range includes both short (three-door) and long-wheelbase (five door) versions, powered by a 2.8-litre D-4D engine with 420Nm of torque and married up to a six-speed automatic, in place of the manual gearbox featured in the Utility model.

The Active grade carries forward the Utility specifications, including cruise control, Bluetooth, smart entry, mudflaps and automatic headlights, and adds in design features, such as 19-inch six-spoke silver alloy wheels and body-colour door handles and door mirror casings.

It also gets extra equipment, including dual-zone automatic climate control, a nine-speaker audio system with DAB radio reception, and the Toyota Touch 2 multimedia system with eight-inch touch screen. Additional handling and safety features include rear parking sensors, reversing camera, Hill-start Assist Control and Downhill Assist Control.

Options include a navigation system, and seven or 13-pin tow bars. An Essential Protection Pack adds a rear bumper plate and rubber floor mats.

All models can tow braked loads up to three tonnes and are fitted with an edge-to-edge non-slip floor tray and side-hinged tailgate. The load space can also be accessed through the rear doors on the long-wheelbase model, with the rear windows covered by an opaque film that matches the body colour. All versions come with a full-height metal bulkhead with a strong mesh upper section and access hatch.

Commercial vehicle on-the-road prices are £32,969 for the short-wheelbase model and £33,932 for the long-wheelbase version.
