“Virtually indestructible,” that’s how this Toyota Land Cruiser 6×6 was described in this video. To clarify, this is a joint product by NSV, Dubai and Multidrive Technology, Australia and not an official vehicle from Toyota.
According to the specs, the Land Cruiser measures in at 6,330 mm long, 1,930 mm wide and with a gross weight of 5,750 kg. Speaking of weight, the 6×6 has a payload capacity of 3,000 kg and is able to sit “four or five” occupants. Supporting all that weight is a set of heavy duty suspension – coil springs up front and leaf springs at the rear.
Of course the only other comparison would have to be the Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6×6 (available as a Brabus G700 6×6 in Malaysia). But unlike the more advanced German behemoth, which utilises a twin-turbo 5.5 litre V8 with 536 hp and 760 Nm and a seven-speed automatic gearbox, the Land Cruiser is far simpler, in terms of its powertrain and drivetrain.
Under the bonnet of the Toyota 6×6 is a supercharged 4.0 V6 which makes 398 hp at 5,500 rpm and 494 Nm at 4,400 rpm. The mill is paired to a five-speed manual gearbox. Meanwhile, the companies noted that a 4.5 litre V8 diesel mill and an automatic transmission can be had as well.
Available in either single-cab or quad-cab form, other optional items include a custom-made payload box and a chassis-only option. So guys, the burning question is, would you prefer the Merc 6×6 or would you rather have a Toyota 6×6 sitting in your garden? Share with us your comments below.

If it comes to Malaysian, UMW will make sure you get only 2 airbags and they will take out the VSC.
