A team drove an all-electric 1978 Land Cruiser 8 km... underwater. Auto123 has the details.
The 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser was unveiled last night, and already there's a buzz around the model. The enthusiasm for this vehicle is not new, as demonstrated by a recent feat achieved by a 30-strong team in Australia.
A completely mad project. And dangerous! Indeed, since the beginning of the year, a hundred crocodiles have been caught in the bay, not to mention the sharks that are commonplace and not always friendly. Another major modification was necessary to enable the vehicle to travel on the seabed. Each tire was filled with 330 lb of water.
This time, the biggest issue was the Land Cruiser getting stuck occasionally on the muddy ocean floor. In those cases, the Land Cruiser had to be freed using buoys chained to it.
