and highly efficient six-speed automatic transmission featuring Toyota’s Super ECT technology. The drivetrain has been specifically calibrated to deliver smooth low-speed drivability, improved downhill control, enhanced throttle response, strong off-road traction, and relaxed highway cruising. A lower first gear improves climbing and traction performance, while a taller sixth gear supports fuel efficiency and reduced engine strain during long-distance travel. Fuel consumption is rated at 10,7 L/100 km. AUTHENTIC FOUR-WHEEL-DRIVE CAPABILITY The Land Cruiser FJ adopts a part-time four- wheel-drive system with selectable H4 and L4 modes, ensuring confident traction across sand, mud, rocks, dirt, and other low-grip surfaces. Off-road technologies include a rear differential lock, Downhill Assist Control (DAC), Hill-start Assist Control (HAC), ECT 2nd mode, and Vehicle Stability Control. The vehicle also benefits from LC Prado-derived front drivetrain components and a lightweight Fortuner-based propeller shaft to optimise durability, packaging and performance. Together, these systems deliver the kind of robust capability expected from a vehicle carrying the Land Cruiser badge. TWO DISTINCT GRADE OPTIONS While both models share the same rugged mechanical foundation, proven 2.7-litre petrol engine, part-time 4WD system and authentic Land Cruiser DNA, the differences between the two grades come down to styling, comfort, convenience, and advanced safety technology. Regardless of grade, both derivatives come standard with seven airbags, Vehicle Stability Control, Downhill Assist Control, a full-size spare wheel and an 8-inch multimedia display with six speakers. The GX positions itself as the more rugged and traditional Land Cruiser derivative. Visually, it leans into the model’s utilitarian roots with black exterior detailing, including black bumper mouldings and a matte black lower front guard. It rides on 17-inch dark grey metallic alloy wheels and features LED headlamps with manual levelling. Inside, the GX continues that practical theme with durable black fabric upholstery, resin interior detailing, and a urethane steering wheel. The cabin remains highly functional and adventure- focused, designed for customers who prioritise durability, simplicity, and ease of ownership. The GX is likely to resonate strongly with traditional Land Cruiser buyers, overlanding enthusiasts and customers who want a more mechanical, authentic off-road SUV without unnecessary complexity. It also serves as an ideal base for accessory upgrades and custom adventure builds. The VX , meanwhile, introduces a more premium and lifestyle-oriented interpretation of the Land Cruiser FJ formula. While it retains the same off- road capability, the VX adds more refinement, upgraded finishes, and advanced driver assistance technologies aimed at a younger, more urban-focused customer. www.agribonus.co.za Spring/Summer 2026 BONUS 23
