Omaha Dealer Researching the New Land Cruiser Land Cruiser
Land Cruiser is defined by exceptional performance and ultimate luxury. While it started as a no-frills off-roader that could literally go just about anywhere, it's undergone several reformations since its debut back in 1957. Today, it's one of the nation's most upscale full-size SUVs, as well as one of the most off-road capable.
Available in one attractive trim level, the 2016 Land Cruiser in Omaha offers a rugged body-on-frame design that's fortified by high-strength steel. It's tough-as-nails frame, Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS) and Multi-Terrain Select ensure confident performance, even on the roughest terrain.
We can't leave out the engine and all-new transmission when discussing performance, either. Many 2016 Toyota Land Cruiser reviews praise the 5.7-liter V8's power output, which stands at an impressive 381 horses and 401 pound-feet of torque. This year, the engine is mated to a brand-new eight-speed automatic transmission that sends power to all four wheels.
Other updates this year include a new front-end look, updated Entune multimedia systems and the introduction of a new Toyota Safety Sense package. The SUV's fascia includes a new grill, bumper, LED lights and headlight cleaners, all of which contribute to an even more upscale look. Inside the SUV, the upgraded Entune interface offers enhanced performance and new Siri Eyes Free integration. Qi wireless phone charging has also be added to the standard equipment list this year and new semi-aniline perforated leather is now available in either black or brown.
The 2016 Toyota Land Cruiser in Omaha also shines when it comes to safety. It offers standard features like a rearview camera, front and rear parking sensors, airbags, antilock brakes, trailer-sway control, hill-start assist, and the Toyota Safety Connect system, which includes on-demand roadside assistance, automatic collision notification and a stolen vehicle locator. On top of this, the SUV now offers Toyota Safety Sense, which combines several elite safety technologies in one peace-of-mind enhancing package. TSS includes lane departure warning, frontal collision avoidance and mitigation systems, dynamic radar cruise control and auto high beams.
