The Land Cruiser 70 SUV is one of the oldest models of the Japanese brand, which is still produced today, and almost unchanged. At the end of the summer of this year, the “seventieth” was modernized for the markets of Japan and Australia, and now it’s the turn of the version for the Middle East, which has its own characteristic features. This SUV is available not only in a five-day version, but also with a short three-door body.
In addition to the short version, the Middle Eastern Land Cruiser 70 differs from the version for other markets in the location of the steering wheel – it is on the left. In addition, only this “seventies” is available with a light beige interior trim, which is not offered in Japan and Australia. Otherwise, the update followed the already known scenario.

The SUV was given back the classic round headlight units, which are now LED, and the interior received a new instrument cluster with a 4.2-inch on-board computer screen, a multi-function steering wheel and a multimedia system with a 6.7-inch touchscreen. The latter now supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
In the Middle East, the Land Cruiser 70 is sold with a naturally aspirated 4.0-liter V6 petrol engine that develops 228 horsepower and 360 Nm of torque. However, if previously the “six” worked exclusively in tandem with a manual transmission, now a six-speed automatic is offered. The seventieth has full drive.
The updated Toyota Land Cruiser 70 can already be ordered in the UAE: prices start from 169,900 dirhams (just over four million rubles) for a three-door version and from 179,900 dirhams (4.35 million rubles) for a five-door SUV.
