So check this out, its year 1991 Toyota J80 series is duin very well in sales especially in Venezuela probably that because the Narcos were buying these cars everyday...
Anyway Toyota started to work on a new land cruiser called J100 which will go into market in 1998 and what a success it was but this is were things start to get complicated to point where even the Australians had enough. Now imagine what you will go through  trying to understand what Toyota did here. First they introduced a new name along side 100 series it was 105series which was the same car as the 100series but different, 105 series ilikua inashare most features na 80series stuff like engines and lacking independent front suspension all said and done lets get to the good stuff.
Haya magari yalikua na engines options nyingi kidgo
The petrol engine choices consisted of a 4.5-litre double overhead camshaft 24-valve six which boasted 165kW peak power or a 4.6-litre double overhead camshaft 32-valve V8 which delivered 170kW of peak power.  If you chose the diesel route there was a 4.2-litre single overhead camshaft 12-valve six cylinder unit with 96kW, or after 2000 a 4.2-litre double overhead camshaft 24-valve turbocharged six which could belt out 151kW
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Tupo pamoja eeeh??  sasa kabla hamjaaza ku comment kua aaah hizo power figures zipo juuu, kitu mnatakiwa muelewe ni hiki Land cruiser imekulia kipindi ambacho mafuta haikua ishu dunia thats why engines zilikua kubwa consumption kubwa na output power yakawaida tu but dont make a mistake to think these engines were soft!  HZ, HDT, 3FE na UZ engines all had cast iron blocks which means hizi engines zinaweza kufika mpka 450,000km ndo zikaitaji kufanyiwa major overhaul.
Kitu kingine mnatakiwa kujua ni jinsi gani Toyota wali spend alot of resources kuhakikisha hizi gari especially 100series inakuja na all the safety advance technologies na driver assist technology mfano, night view system ilokua inamuwezesha dreva kuona vizur usiku, active height control, rollover sensor and control logic will talk more about these on our podcast.
105 series nyingi zilikua zinauzwa Africa, Asia na Australia.
