The Toyota 2.8 GD-6 engine features in models like the Hilux and Land Cruiser, with combined fuel consumption rates typically ranging from 7.8 to 10.1 L/100km based on driving conditions and model year[3]. For the Hilux Raider 2.8 GD-6 4×4, real-world and claimed figures indicate an average consumption of 8.0 L/100km[7]. In comparison, older non-hybrid variants often averaged closer to 11 L/100km[3]. The newest hybrid-assisted versions are particularly efficient, achieving close to the manufacturer’s claimed 8.0 L/100km in mixed driving[3].
For the Toyota Land Cruiser 70 Series equipped with the 2.8 GD-6 engine, Toyota claims a combined consumption of 9.6 L/100km, which is more efficient than the outgoing V8 diesel variant, previously rated at 10.7 L/100km[5].
Official WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure) figures for the 2.8 GD-6 Hilux Double Cab report a combined consumption between 27.9 and 30.7 mpg (approximately 7.7 to 9.0 L/100km), depending on trim, transmission, and model year[1].
Advanced engine technology in the 2.8 GD-6 contributes to reduced consumption and improved efficiency while maintaining strong power (150 kW) and torque (500 Nm), which benefits both performance and fuel economy[2].
