TOYOTA builds the Land Cruiser tough. And has extended the big 4×4’s capabilities with the launch of a Commercial version at this year’s CV Show.

And customer deliveries begin this week.

There are two versions of the Land Cruiser Commercial: short wheelbase, three-door and long-wheelbase five-door models.

With the passenger vehicle’s seats taken out, there’s load space that extends to 1,574 litres in the SWB and 2,216 litres in the LWB. In terms of payload, the respective maximum weights are up to 593 and 756kg. Both models can tow up to three tonnes.

The load bay is fitted with an edge-to-edge, non-slip flat floor tray.

A full-height metal bulkhead is provided, with a mesh top section and a hatch for easy access.

The rear tailgate is side-hinged and opens wide for easy loading; additionally, the rear doors function on the LWB model. Rear windows are blanked out with a film that matches the Land Cruiser’s body colour.

Prices (commercial vehicle on-the-road) are £27,546 for the SWB model and £28,509 for the LWB.
