As well as announcing the world premieres of the pre-production Auris Hybrid and Prius Plug-in Hybrid concept, Toyota has also confirmed that it will take the covers off the completely redesigned Land Cruiser at the Frankfurt motorshow. Even though the Japanese automaker is keeping details and photos of the 2010 Land Cruiser / Prado to itself, a JDM brochure that leaked onto the internet in the beginning of August has reveals that the SUV receives new sheetmetal with softer forms along with a redesigned interior.

The revamped Land Cruiser, which should pave the way for a new Lexus GS in the States sometime next year, will go on sale in Europe during the 4th quarter of 2009. Check our previous report on the 2010 Land Cruiser by clicking here.
