It is because the hydrostatic transmission on the linde, makes it hard to spin the drive wheels when changing direction and it generally accelerates and brakes in a smooth fashion. Having said that most torque convertor type transmissions now come with a tyre saver option which will prevent the spinning of the drive wheels. So as long as the Toyota in question is available with a tyre saver option and is driven correctly the tyre wear will be similar.
