N5. Toyota Land Cruiser 79 four-litre

V6 – 170 kW/360Nm

A standout among the ‘rough and rugged’ bakkie collective, Toyota’s Land Cruiser 79 is as tough as they come. Modern renditions see the integratio­n of infotainme­nt screens and a softer interior while the exterior retains Toyota’s signature farmland workhorse styling. Motivating the distinct-looking off-roader is a hearty four-litre V6 power plant capable of a maximum output of 170kW and 360Nm.
