Bettering the previous mark of 211mph (340km/h) set by a heavily tuned 6.3L twin-turbo V12 Brabus Mercedes-Benz GLK, the Toyota Land Speed Cruiser reached a GPS verified top speed of 230mph (370.1km/h).

Paired with a custom ATI transmission, the Toyota Land Speed Cruiser produces an estimated 1500kW of power- enough to hurtle the 2.3-tonne SUV to 100km/h in well under three seconds.
