This 4x4 is everything BUT a full size SUV. It's more like a mid size 4x4

I couldn't agree more! The return of the boxy look to full-size SUVs is fantastic. It's like a nostalgic throwback to the classic designs that were not only iconic but also practical. It allows for more interior space, making the SUV versatile and capable of carrying both passengers and cargo with ease.

@@ferlottesall land cruisers are smaller then Toyota sequoias so makes sense

Oh man I know! Even the Hyundai Santa Fe is looking amazing. This is what I crave, more of these boxy SUV designs!

@@praetorin Santa Fe is amazing with Rav4 or CRV, not even Pilot

Only probably is the lead engineers are fat Americans. I question the reliability of these new gens

Yeah as long as you don't plan on keeping it more than 9 years

Toyota remains the most trusted and durable brand. What the hell are you talking about?

@@brandonpayne8433you haven’t explained why not

Totally agree.

Land Cruisers got ridiculously huge (and expensive) before that fJ abomination.

I think this is supposed to be the new Prado/Lexus GX so it's a similar size

​​@@rafeesamithYou're correct. Most people in the US are unfamiliar with the LC Prado. Land Cruiser is a completely different beast.

@@rafeesamithbut the Prado/GX has a new generation as well. I’m curious to see the difference between this and the GX other than looking even more rugged than the new gen GX and more power. Ladder frame? Extra tech?

this is the Prado ?@@MrMikeDao

Sounds like Toyota runs in the family, Brian! 😍 Do you have a favorite memory with your family's Land Cruiser?

Toyota replied brain, tell us about those memories

Except that it has a crap powertrain

I'm a little hesitant. They're showing it off on tiny street/highway tires, and my 20 year old Sequoia has 3 inches of ground clearance on this thing

The angles and good for off-roading and 8.3 inches of ground clearance??? No

@@foxxmufasa yeah to it's credit it has good approach and departure angles, but it has less ground clearance then even a bronco sport

​@@alexross4062they all come from the factory with stupid tires, and it doesn't matter, when I get mine I'll build it

We appreciate the love! We're glad you like it. 🤗

​@@toyotausaplz reimagine the mr2 next

You asked. We delivered 😎

​@@toyotausa I'm not sure about that. SMH...

Thanks for the support! ❤️

@@toyotausa My favorite Toyota is the BZ4!

Just missing Working Straight axles.

Yep. Toyota not offering the twin turbo V6 V35A-FTS and 10 speed in the new Land Cruiser is a huge failure. Not everyone lives close to a Lexus dealership, the closest one to me is 5 hours away. I really wanted a more powerful engine option without the added weight of a hybrid system.

🤣

But this one is so fetch..

america will never again get diesels in regular vehicles bc of the asinine regulations

I would buy if it was stripped down.

@@Sheltur_0311 Get rid of them! and the regs!

Mirrors too

I was thinking that too. It's like a homage to the fj cruiser. I mean the fj was based on the 120/150 prado so this makes sense. I love what toyota is doing here with their new cars

...which looks like my two-tone blue 1970 FJ40...might have to get a new one to complement it.

They just don't want to call it an FJ because they would lose face for cancelling the FJ.

and the mark ups by the greedy toyota dealers will be astrnomical ..., good luck!

@@ThatGermanFella There are a lot of Toyota dealers that are MSRP-only dealerships. Not saying you won't see a bunch marking them up, but if you're willing to wait long enough, you'll easily be able to find one for MSRP.

The base model looks freaking beautiful!

@@4Runner_4ever totally agree. And there's a huge aftermarket for additional goodies to build it out.

Ура наконец то гибрид!!! Аплодисменты!!!

Jeep sucks.

100% agreed!

It isn’t smaller. It’s the Prado and the wheel base was lengthened

@@davidheaton6206wish more people knew this…

@@davidheaton6206the car is definitely smaller than the previous one. Get your info right please

​@@marcwelby1836 This is a prado. Not a fully fledged land cruiser. The LX600 is a fully fledged land cruiser and an entirely different vehicle and cant be compared. Compared to other prados, this new "land cruiser" is a larger vehicle.

Don’t do it Grannie, stick to the Rav

​@@MJ-fj9yvsilence peasant!

@@RagingBad relax boomer…

@@MJ-fj9yv shut it 🤡

If you driving a rav4 u cannot afford this….don’t worry- Neither can i

haha even with these current interest rates? Obviously the economy never took a hit if people are lining up to buy a 60k plus SUV. You better be rich or your a person with very low IQ because paying a car note for a vehicle that does the samething as one that 10 years old can do and your going to paying a long long time and its going to drive you nuts

It’s indeed the Prado. On market where the J300 “normal” Land Cruiser available, it’ll be sold using the Prado badge alongside the J300 (and, on some market, the facelifted J70). Toyota also said that they intended to make this smaller J250 as the flagship Land Cruiser (instead of the full-sized J300). Also, 4Runner is not just “share a lot” with the Prado/GX, but *it is* the Prado. 4Runner (except for the earlier, Hilux-based ones) is just the Prado for North America (LHD) market.

Toyota is changing things up. Before, prado was never available in USA but there was the lexus gx. It's the opposite here in aus, where we had the prado, but not the gx. Now both models will be available

This is not a prado. Let’s not get that confused, we can still get the prado in the GX.

@@dylantodd9574 gx came from prado. This is going to be the new prado here. Just not for you guys

@@Wtrxprs007able no it’s not.

LOOKS great. Won’t even be near the same reliability as before

@@bobsacamano6402 why do you say/think that? turbo?

@@whitebuffalo4904 well, it does not have a solid front axle, which is important for the guys who do a lot of off-roading. As long as they don't discontinue the 70 series then i think everyone will be happy in the end.

​@@jinglemyberries866No, ive wheeled with both and prefer ifs. Toyota went backwards in capability across their whole truck fleet. Less ground clearance across all new "off-road" vehicles. They had an opportunity to compet with bronco and Wrangler and now toyota competes with subaru. Even defenders are more capable. Idk what toyota team is thinking. Guess they just want sales from the soccer moms and mall crawlers.

@@bobsacamano6402 yeah, the sad truth 🥲

Without the hybrid powertrain, too.

its a disappointment

Bigger engines are being legislated out in many countries across the globe in favour of hybrids and this looks to be the same. Many manufacturers of luxury vehicles have small engine hybrids in the pipeline.

@@Pesmog yeah I realize that but they could at least do the hybrid v6 like they did in the tundra. Since car manufacturers have started switching to 4 cylinders the problem rate for these 4 cylinder vehicles has gone up to 10 problems per 100 vehicles. The shift to 4-cylinder engines from 6-cylinder engines is epitomized by BMW. For years the company made in-line 6-cylinder engines for most of its vehicles. Now, it has shifted to 2.0 liter turbocharged engines for all of its volume vehicles. Its problem rate is 130 PP100. Lexus by comparison does not use 4-cylinder engines in any of its most popular vehicles. It does offer some as hybrids, but overall Lexus has stuck with the 3.5 liter V6 for almost all of its volume movers. Lexus' problem rate is about half that of BMW at just 68 PP100.

No 4Runner?

It's not a small compact SUV, it's even bigger than the outgoing Toyota Prado

How is it small and compact? That new Landcruiser is bigger than the Fortuner, 6 inches longer and 5 inches wider. Plus the price would most likely be above 5 million pesos.

​​​@@marcamigable18045 million? Nah, this ain't a Lexus, pal. If the hybrid arrives in the Philippines, the price would be cut in half. Remember, there's a law that cuts any Hybrid and/or EV's prices in half or a quarter, and you're going to be exempted from number coding in Metro Manila.

@@xraider927 It ain't a Lexus but it is very similar to the Lexus GX. May I also ask what law are you referring to? As far as I know the discounts only refer to the tax placed upon hybrids and EVs (50% and 100% respectively) as well as multiple other exemptions and incentives. With that said, the current LC Prado and LC 300 cost at around 4.5-5.7 million pesos. The MSRP of the upcoming 2024 LC/LC Prado is at around 50-55 thousand US dollars which is at 2.7-3 million pesos. Based on the law, taxes placed on luxury vehicles with at least 2.1 million msrp is at 512k pesos plus 60% of the excess amount. Taking all into consideration, 2.7-3 million (msrp of the 2024 LC) + 512k pesos x 0.5= 256k pesos (since it's a hybrid and is exempt to 50% tax) + (2.7 million - 2.1 million x 60%) ÷ 2 or (3 million - 2.1 million x 60%) ÷ 2 would result to the final price to be roughly at 3 316 000/3.316 million pesos to 3 526 000/3.526 million pesos if released here on ph. So it would be around 1-1.2 million cheaper than the current LC Prado and 2-2.4 million cheaper than the current LC300. To sum it up: 2024 LC/LC Prado: 3.3 -3.5 million pesos Current LC Prado: 4.5 million pesos Current LC 300: 5.7 million pesos To conclude it seems that it won't really sell like hotcakes as what the original commenter stated but I do believe that it will definitely sell more and be more popular compared to the current LC Prado and LC 300. Ps. If I stated anything wrong please do correct me.

Agree. This is weak. Im taking it off the list

Maybe a home run at a little league game.

@@Yul-Uhlu compared too a defended I think this is a better design at a better price? No? What else is there in this market. A jeep really is kind of separate. A g-wagon is more for show/looks, it doesn't even have roof rails and drives poorly. Name an off road SUV better than this for the price.

Thanks for sharing, we're glad you like the Land Cruiser too! ❤️

Sure sure

The have been disappointing for a couple of decades. They went worshipping at the alter of bulbous vehicles and american soccer moms. it's good to see them wisen up,.

This land cruiser is a disappointment. Super complicated engine...and lack of a 3rd row

No 3rd row on a Land Cruiser / Prado - you’ve got to be kidding me. Guess I’ll just buy an old Prado, they should be cheaper soon.

dealership mark up does

Digital key will require a subscription. That’s definitely a disappointment. So yes, they do.

Thanks for the love, Ahmed! ❤️

Exactly

Exactly!!!

Because it's cool

That's music to our ears! Thank you for your love and support. 🤗

Thanks for sharing your excitement. We know you'll love it! ❤️

Glad to hear you're cruising for more! 😎

Dude, white with black steelies and some meat tires? I’m getting all giddy just thinking about it. I wish I could render well enough to see what that would really look like

I think you mean a 4" lift, 35" mud terrains, 4.88 gearing, aftermarket bumpers and sliders and skids, a part-time transfer case conversion, a front locker...

We're glad you're a fan, Szilárd! 😊

In the rest of the world it's a prado. The landcruisers little brother. A

​​@@matthewhaywood7411Europe doesn't use the Prado name, FYI.

I’d take this over a bronco all day long
