Toyota has unveiled a freshened version of its Land Cruiser SUV for the 2013 model year. The Land Cruiser’s platform mate, the Lexus LX570, was recently updated at the 2012 Detroit auto show.

Although not a total overhaul, the Land Cruiser sports a number of improvements for 2013. Exterior improvements for the new model year include a revised grille and the addition of HID low-beam headlights. The 2013 Land Cruise also gets LED daytime running lights, chrome side molding and redesigned side mirrors and tail lamps.

Updates for the SUV’s interior include perforated leather trimmed seats with ventilation, high-gloss wood accents, chrome-plate air registers and a new gauge lighting system.

Taking a page from Land Rover ’s book, the Land Cruiser also gains a Multi-terrain Monitor with front, side or rear selectable views for 2013, along with an Eco Driving Indicator light and zone display, a heated steering wheel and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control.

The 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser is powered by a 5.7L V8 producing 381 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of torque.

The 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser will arrive in showrooms later this month with a starting price of $77,955.
