not to sure about the engine ! And being hybrid too!

think I remember reading something about new prado comming out soon to as the 150 had been out for 10 years now

I read this too, can't be right. Maybe for a Prado but not a Cruiser.
May as well give Nissan all large 4x sales.
A 220kw Cruiser.....imagine towing with that.

They say it will be a lot lighter with the hybrid gear so should have similar power ? But not on paper

Still all speculation until exact config is released by Toyota.

only 356Nm? That’s Nat aspirated v6 levels, not twin turbo levels as the article suggested.
The cruisers biggest drawcard is/was it’s towing ability which would be rubbish if this article was correct.

this must be click bait at best...
wait for the proper figures to come out...

That basic article is appearing all over the place, the following link seems the most logical view point to me. That is the 3.5L hybrid replacing the 4.6L petrol no longer sold here in Aust.

CVT... Already have a little bit of sick in my throat!

[rascal Member Find all posts View Profile Close rascal]

Ahh, CVTs.. A great idea on paper, horrible in real life...

So many car salesmen also don't know what they're selling. Old school auto or CVT.
Would not have a CVT at any price.
