Toyota drops the Land Cruiser from sale in India

Toyota drops the Land Cruiser from sale in India

Earlier in January, the iconic Toyota Land Cruiser was pulled from sale in India due to upcoming emissions changes in the country. Both the LC200 and Prado were discontinued and they are relatively old models now with out of technology, so Toyota decided to drop the 4×4 from sale rather than reengineer them to meet the new BS6 emissions.

The LC200 was not designed to meet emissions standards, it had a 4.5-litre V8 with 650Nm of torque and 261bhp, which wasn’t much for the engine size.

According to cardekho Toyota may be working on a new Land Cruiser and whether or not that will be avauible in India is yet to be known.
