Key changes include different headlamps (projector type and LED daytime running lights), new tail lamp cluster, redesigned front bumper, new wheel design and wing mirror mounted turn signals. Also updated is the Crawl Control feature – Toyota’s version for hill ascent / descent assist. In the current model, Crawl feature will maintain a constant speed when climbing / descending steep inclines, allowing the driver to concentrate on steering the vehicle. The system has 3 pre-set speeds to choose from, while the improved version will have 5 pre-set speeds to allow for greater flexibility in handling the inclines.
Below is a video demonstration for the Land Cruiser’s Crawl Control.
