2026 Toyota Land Cruiser now with more powerful hybrid package – 457 hp, 790 Nm

Toyota continues to strengthen its position in the hybrid segment with the introduction of the 2026 Land Cruiser HEV model.

Launched for the Middle Eastern market, the Land Cruiser 300 Series is powered by a self-charging hybrid system, which consists of a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 engine and a single electric motor.

Overall, the Land Cruiser HEV is capable of generating 457 hp and torque of up to 790 Nm, making it the most powerful Land Cruiser variant currently available.

This power is transferred to the four-wheel drive system via a 10-speed automatic transmission.

In terms of appearance, not much has changed except for the updated front bumper design, which is specific to this variant.

The rear features the “457 TT” and “HEV” emblems, indicating that it is a hybrid SUV.

The cabin space has also seen minor changes, with an updated instrument cluster now featuring specific graphics alongside a 12.3-inch infotainment screen.

A notable difference from the standard Land Cruiser model is the smaller fuel tank capacity, which is approximately 68 liters compared to 80 liters in the regular model.

Lastly, a power outlet is provided in the rear cargo area.

In the UAE, the Toyota Land Cruiser HEV is priced starting from AED 389,900 (approximately RM 450,000) for the VXR trim, and AED 409,900 (approximately RM 473,000) for the GR Sport trim.
