Toyota Motor Corporation will offer the next-gen Land Cruiser in V6 turbocharged petrol and V6 petrol-electric (hybrid) models. Lexus, in a similar procedure, dumped V8 engines on the LS in its fifth generation and adopted a V6-only approach.

The next-gen Toyota Land Cruiser will use the V35A-FTS 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 petrol engine. In the latest Lexus LS, this engine dishes out 422 PS and 600 Nm of torque, and it comes married to a 10-speed automatic transmission. As for the first-ever Toyota Land Cruiser Hybrid, the report mentions the same engine that will power the next-gen Toyota Land Cruiser.

Next-gen Toyota Land Cruiser coming in 2020 with new frame, but no V8

No idea if it'll make it over to North America.
