The new hybrid system offers impressive fuel efficiency, with the 2WD models achieving up to 23.6 kilometers per liter and the 4WD models reaching 21.9 kilometers per liter.

Inside, the Landy features a spacious cabin with versatile seating arrangements and convenient features like an inductive electric sliding door. The central infotainment screen has been upgraded to 7 inches. For the 4WD models, a new SNOW EXTRA driving mode has been added to improve control and stability in snowy conditions. The vehicle also incorporates advanced safety systems, including Pre-Collision System (PCS), Lane Tracing Assist (LTA), Lane Departure Alert (LDA), and Automatic High Beam (AHB).

The interior prioritizes practicality with ample storage solutions, including cup holders, hooks, and storage compartments. A fold-out table on the first-row rear seats provides a convenient surface for snacks, drinks, or even as a small workspace. The Landy starts at 3,845,600 Japanese yen (approximately 760,000 New Taiwan dollars).

The entire Landy series is hybrid.
