2025 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado Mild Hybrid revealed — Top 5 things to know

Toyota has been putting its 48V mild-hybrid system on its diesel SUVs lately, with the Toyota Hilux in the UK to the Fortuner and Legender in India. The same system has now made its way on board the Land Cruiser Prado. Here are five things to know about the 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado Mild Hybrid.

Powertrain details

The 48V mild-hybrid system has been mated to a 2.8-litre four-cylinder diesel engine and an 8-speed automatic gearbox. The combined system output stands at 204PS of maximum power and 500Nm of peak torque. 

Same powertrain as the India-spec Fortuner

The India-spec Toyota Fortuner Diesel-neoDrive gets the same powertrain as that of the Land Cruiser Prado that we spoke of above. The Hilux also got the mild-hybrid setup in the UK, and might soon make its way to India as well.
