DESIGN
Toyota Land Cruiser

The return of an icon? Oh, this is about to be good. Toyota added the best parts of the Land Cruiser’s predecessors to the TNGA-F global truck platform. The results? A mighty SUV capable of making waves—literally. This heritage-inspired SUV will bring a wave of nostalgia to off-road enthusiasts while they splash through water crossings, mud, and more.

Choose Your Cruiser

The Toyota Land Cruiser is available in three trim levels. Short and sweet. The spirit of adventure lives on in all three variants, so which one will you dive into adventure with?

  • 1958: The Land Cruiser’s base trim takes us back to the past. This trim level pays homage to the original FJ25 with its round lights and fabric upholstery.
  • Land Cruiser: This trim level lives and breathes by its namesake, much like its inspiration: the FJ62.
  • First Edition: This top trim level of the Land Cruiser lineup adds premium features and exclusivity. It also comes with all the off-road must-haves you can think of!

Selecting a trim level is only one part of the fun. Choose from five solid paint options, including:

  • Black
  • Wind Chill Pearl
  • Meteor Shower
  • Ice Cap
  • Underground

Do you want to double down on this model’s curb appeal? Choose from two dual-tone paint options: Trail Dust, a golden yellow, or Heritage Blue, a denim blue. Both paints pair with a Grayscape roof!

Back to the Future!

You’ll find heritage-inspired styling in every trim level. From the FJ25- and FJ26-inspired headlights found on the 1958 and Land Cruiser trim levels to the TOYOTA heritage front grille, one thing is clear: These cruisers are distinctly Toyota. Square side mirrors and athletic fender flares give the Land Cruiser an athletic aesthetic, further bolstering its trail-riding chops.

The real star of the show is the available Rigid Industries® LED color-selectable fog lights! These unique lights allow the driver to switch between crisp white lights for low-light driving scenarios or dynamic yellow illumination that enhances contrast in denser conditions.

INTERIOR
Toyota Land Cruiser

The world is your oyster. You can go anywhere and do anything, especially with a versatile vessel like the Toyota Land Cruiser in your arsenal. Whether you’re gearing up for an arid adventure or a lakeside retreat, the Land Cruiser will serve as your home away from home.

A Piece of Home Wherever You Go

It’s time to set forth on your next journey. Who’s going with you? The Land Cruiser can seat up to five adults comfortably. The spacious 37.5-cubic-foot cargo area offers plenty of room for duffel bags, comforts from home, and campfire snacks. Larger gear, like your trusty kayak or all your camping shelter supplies, can be stowed on top thanks to an available roof rack or rails.

Back to your passengers. Their comfort is essential, especially on longer treks. Fabric-trimmed, 6-way front seats come standard, giving you and your copilot comforting quarters. Turn those quarters into thrones by choosing SofTex® or leather upholstery and the 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with lumbar support!

After braving the wilderness for a while, you may be craving the comfort of your home. This Toyota has you covered:

  • Standard Heated Front Seats: No room for a fire? No problem! Take your warm cup of joe into the Land Cruiser, crank up this standard seating feature to your ideal setting, and let out that well-deserved “Aahhh.”
  • Available Ventilated Seats: Retreat from muggy weather and beaming sunshine with the help of ventilated seats. That’s one way to stay calm, cool, and collected.
  • Available Moonroof: Stargaze with the family from anywhere with this feature.

How can you ensure everyone is comfortable on the trip? The Toyota Land Cruiser makes it easy with standard 3-zone automatic climate control. The driver, front passenger, and rear passenger can choose their ideal temperature settings!

Your Mobile HQ

As the driver, you’ll have a whole arsenal of technology to help you enjoy every mile between Point A and Point B. Behind the wheel, you’ll find a 7-inch color Multi-Information Display or an available 12.3-inch Digital Gauge Cluster. Both help you keep a pulse on how your Land Cruiser is doing!

To the right of the steering wheel, you’ll find an 8-inch or available 12.3-inch touchscreen. Pair your phone via wireless Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto™ to bring up your favorite apps on your central display, including your music streaming apps! Whether you’re playing a podcast, playlist, or audiobook, your listening experience will be grand with one of three sound systems:

  • 6 speakers (Standard)
  • 10 speakers (Available)
  • 14 premium JBL® speakers (Available)

Closing out the Land Cruiser’s display real estate is an available Head-Up Display. View vehicle stats, incoming calls, music, safety alerts, and more on this projected display!

PERFORMANCE
Toyota Land Cruiser

The Toyota Land Cruiser is a rig ready for big adventure gigs. Overlanding in mountainous terrain, tenting lakeside, exploring arid biomes, you name it, and the Land Cruiser will handle it. This SUV is equally prepared for a trek through the concrete jungle. Whether you call the great outdoors or cityscapes home, this reborn Toyota is bound to give you the adventure of a lifetime.

Do-It-All Attitude

The Toyota Land Cruiser has a do-anything mentality. Rightfully so. This mighty SUV taps into the strength of a 2.4L turbocharged i-FORCE MAX hybrid engine, harnessing 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. The Land Cruiser can tow up to 6,000 pounds with the proper equipment. Go on, take that small recreational boat or hard-sided RV on an adventure!

An 8-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission with intelligence harnesses Toyota's engine power. That power shifts to the standard full-time 4-wheel drive system! This drivetrain comes with the Torsen® limited-slip center differential with locking features, allowing the driver to engage the locking differentials with the push of a button. Say hello to better traction!

Adventure Mindset

This Toyota SUV proudly displays its go-anywhere capability, too. From the concrete jungle to the untamed wilderness, these three drive modes will tailor your driving experience with the touch of a button:

  • Sport Mode: Indulges your spirited side with a sharper acceleration feel.
  • Eco Mode: Adjusts throttle input to optimize efficiency.
  • Normal Mode: Blends fuel economy with performance.

Are you ready to let loose on the off-road without compromising control? Sit back and relax; these off-roading features have you covered.

  • Crawl Control
  • Downhill Assist Control
  • Multi-Terrain Select

With the help of these tools, you can feel confident navigating any type of terrain.

Toyota Land Cruiser vs. The Competition
Toyota Land Cruiser Jeep Grand Cherokee

Jeeps are known for being adventurous, including the Grand Cherokee. With the return of the Toyota Land Cruiser, we think a reassessment of the off-roading top dog is in order. In comparing these two models, both prove to be capable and comfortable. However, the Toyota delivers more peace of mind and prowess without needing an upgrade.

Toyota Land Cruiser Land Rover Defender

How does the Toyota Land Cruiser fare against the Land Rover Defender? We’re glad you asked. The Defender is deemed a luxurious and exclusive SUV. Even so, its power and poise are transcended by the Land Cruiser. More horsepower, innovative driver assistance, and crew comfort make the Toyota the true top prospect.

Ahh, two returning legends battling it out. Which one will win? Three rounds in the ring, and you’ll have your answer. In the first round, the Toyota and the Ford circle each other, but the Land Cruiser makes the more powerful blow. In the second round, it was a test of strength and endurance, which Toyota won by a landslide. In the final round, it’s a TKO. The Toyota is the winner!
