RUMOR MILL: Toyota Considering A Performance Verison Of The Land Cruiser - Does The Geritol Set Even Go Off Road?

Toyota is planning a significant expansion of its range of GR-branded models and this could even include a sporty version of the next-generation Land Cruiser 300 Series.

The GR Supra and GR Yaris are the automaker’s only current models with the Gazoo Racing badge, but will soon be joined by a GR Corolla in select markets. Toyota has also previously suggested that a GR Hilux is on the cards, as is a GR Fortuner, and during a recent interview, a Toyota Australia spokesperson said the company couldn’t rule out other GR models.

"Does the Geritol set know what to do with performance?" There is a cure for the young'n who wrote this headline......its time, yours will come if you are lucky.
If their on this site and been driving for half a century or more I'm sure they can handle the performance of any Land Cruiser. The real question is why would Toyota waste hard to come by development money on a performance Land Cruiser? A Land Cruiser stands for reliability, durability, space and utility. Money better spent elsewhere.

Who in hell would want a performance version of a design that if roughly a quarter century old?

"Performance version" means TRD stickers and blacked out trim.

I've noticed a lot of rumors/ news about Land Cruisers recently, either Toyota's trying to stay relevant or something really good is coming so Toyota Marketing is building anticipation

with Toyota pulling the FJ not too long ago and now the Cruiser... I'd be willing to guess something new finally coming down the pipe. The offroad segment is too hot to bow out of at this point. 4runner is old as is the Sequoia. It's time for something different.
