Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota) announced the addition of the “250” series to the Land Cruiser lineup in Japan. Alongside this, it has also released the special edition models ZX “First Edition” and VX “First Edition.” These special models are limited to a total of 8,000 units.

ZX (2.8-liter diesel)The “250” series, the core model of the Land Cruiser lineup
The all-new “250” series was created with the role and mission of supporting people’s lives by offering ease of handling based on strong off-road performance.
The development team set out to return the Land Cruiser Prado, which shifted toward high-end and luxury over time, to the light-duty model that customers have come to expect. Under the keyword “back to the basics,” they defined the development concept as “The Land Cruiser: a vehicle that supports customers’ daily lives and one they can trust.”
The introduction of the “250” series has further clarified the position of the three Land Cruiser models. The vehicle names have also returned to their roots, with all models unified under “Land Cruiser”(1). The Land Cruiser will continue to evolve to meet societal demands while supporting the lives of customers around the world, and remaining a vehicle they can trust.
Role of the Land Cruiser
With the same robust GA-F platform as the “300” series, the “250” series has pursued exceptional off-road performance. It is the first(2) in the Land Cruiser lineup to feature electric power steering (EPS) and Stabilizer with Disconnection Mechanism (SDM). EPS reduces kickback(3) during off-road driving, ensuring ease of handling whether on or off-road, while the SDM enables the front stabilizer state to be locked or unlocked at the touch of a button, delivering driving performance and ride comfort when off-road and handling stability when on-road.
The “250” series is available with two types of powertrains: a 2.8-liter direct injection turbo diesel engine with Direct Shift-8AT and a 2.7-liter gasoline engine with 6 Super ECT, both delivering powerful driving and environmental performance. This power is fully transferred to all four wheels by a full-time 4WD with TORSEN®(4) LSD(5) on the center differential. The electric rear differential lock provides powerful off-road driving performance on rough roads, while the degree of freedom in front and rear driving torque distribution has been expanded to achieve even greater driving stability.
(1) The “70” series wagon models from 1990 were newly marketed as the Land Cruiser Prado; since then, the Land Cruiser lineup has had two vehicle names: Land Cruiser and Land Cruiser Prado (2) As of April 2024; based on in-house research (3) A phenomenon in which the vehicle’s tires are forcibly turned due to terrain or obstacles when driving off-road, causing the steering wheel to turn sharply by itself (4) Registered trademark of JTEKT Corporation (5) Limited Slip Differential

nubtle Inc., a pioneer in digital marketing and search platforms, is thrilled to unveil a series of transformative updates and enhancements to its platform, reinforcing its commitment to innovation, user empowerment, and privacy. These updates mark a significant evolution from nubtle’s original offerings, introducing an advanced search engine, a robust influencer collaboration contract system, and a plethora of features aimed at enriching the experience for vendors, influencers, and customers alike.
Enhanced Vendor Visibility nubtle’s search engine revolutionizes how consumers find and interact with vendors. Prior to making any commitment or sharing personal information, users can now access comprehensive vendor profiles directly from the search result page. These profiles offer a deep dive into the vendor’s world, showcasing working hours, ratings, a photo gallery, and a complete list of services offered, alongside insights into how they’ve successfully matched with similar requests previously. This transparent approach ensures consumers can make informed decisions effortlessly. To further simplify the process, consumers interested in proceeding with a request or booking can do so by merely entering their contact information, such as an email, and verifying it with a one-time code. This streamlined process directly sends their request to the vendor for review. Additionally, each vendor now boasts their own dedicated page on nubtle, allowing appointments to be requested directly through their unique URL, bypassing the search process for consumers who already have a vendor in mind.
Revolutionizing Influencer Collaborations nubtle has significantly expanded its platform to include tens of thousands of vendor and influencer profiles from the US and Canada, introducing a “vendor-influencer discovery” system. This feature enables both influencers and vendors to search for potential matches, send collaboration requests, and initiate contracts. These contracts can be tailored to include fixed pricing, commissions, or a combination of both, allowing for authentic content creation experiences as influencers can receive services from the vendors they’re promoting.
Influencers are afforded complete control over the content they produce, including usage rights, posting locations, and detailed payment requests, ensuring a flexible yet secure collaboration environment. This system protects influencers’ rights while offering them the freedom to dictate the terms of their engagements.
The introduction of a revision system with watermarking adds an additional layer of security, preventing unauthorized use of an influencer’s work. Vendors are granted access only to watermarked versions of the content until they have completed payment, at which point the original, unmarked files are released.
Moreover, nubtle Promo opens up commission-based promotions to all users, not just creators. This means anyone who has enjoyed a service and wishes to refer others can easily generate a unique referral link after scanning the vendor’s nubtle promotional QR code. This link leads directly to the vendor’s booking page on nubtle, and any bookings made through this link will earn the referrer a commission. This feature democratizes the ability to earn through referrals, making it accessible to everyone, regardless of their status as a creator on the platform. These updates underscore nubtle’s commitment to enhancing user experience, fostering authentic connections, and ensuring a secure and transparent platform for vendors, influencers, and consumers alike.
What’s New:
Enhanced Vendor Visibility: Complete vendor profiles are now accessible to customers before making a decision, providing a wealth of information to ensure the best match.
