You don't buy it for it's looks. You buy it because you need a beast. If you live in West London you buy an X5 or Cayenne or Q7 because you care what other people think. If you live on a farm or in the desert you buy a Land Cruiser because you don't care what other people think. It gets the job done, no questions, no frills.

Obviously, the people commenting have never been to the Australian outback. Try taking some of those British and European faux 4x4s and you will have a long walk home. Toyota is the one.

The real value of these cars you see when you resell them after 8 years! And then you see that reliability pays off! And for me a Landcruiser isn't a real SUV it is much more!!

Finally, a British confessed about the poor quality of Range Rover LOL

Landcruiser the best of them all . I live in a city and drive one still amazing 👍🏽

In case of an apocalypse, this is what you want to be driving in.

My favorite all time SUV, built like a tank.

I'm from a small island nation in the South Pacific called Fiji, Northeast of Australia... And this giant is a ruler on our roads! Most Government Ministries uses it due to it capability!!

The version with the spare wheel attached to the outside of the boot inside a cover actually looks better at the back than the one without it.

There is a lever on the middle row tilt and slide seat Matt! You don’t need to reach over to the back of the middle seat for the release lever. It’s located at hip level and very obvious when you open the passenger side rear door.The one you pulled was for someone sitting in the third row to pull in order to exit the car if there was no one sitting in the middle row…

When car buyer was the best car review channel...

I have the Lexus version of this. I actually wanted a full size Land Cruiser V8, but it was almost 85K for the same level of equipment. It's an amazing vehicle nevertheless. I recently switched from driving Infiniti and Nissan SUVs, and I must say, Toyota is making some really nice products nowadays.

So am I the only one that doesn't think the Land Cruiser is not ugly?

Travel with Mat or Rebecca and you'll never be hungry!

So Matt had a bagel and Rebecca a banana?? that is odd!

Have a real sweet spot Land Cruiser Prados and Utes. Used them as run abouts working in the mines in Western Australia over the last few years having driven thousands of kms on unsealed roads I can happily say they are very capable off-road in comparison to lots of the competition and very reliable. Admit they are a bit of a bus on the road but there is plenty of room for 5 adults inside with steel capped boots, hard hats and all. Not really sure why you would want one in the UK though...

long term owner: 1 reliability and low cost of maintenance first. 2.aftermarket modification, lifting 2 or 3 inch and KO2 , PRADO is value for money not for show off

Dad has put 140k miles on this and runs fine. Very reliable

I actually like it when the middle seat is smaller than the side seats in the 2nd row, because then the front seats and the 2nd row side seats are aligned which makes leg room that much more usable since your legs can be straight instead of offset to one side

Can I ask you ask you?,does the Toyota Prado cruise control hung and the car keep going on the road and the cruise control doesn't accept the cancellation when you press its cancel key?

Pretty much our 4Runner (same platform and body of a Lexus GX460), ours is even bigger, and the Lexus version is just insane.

Here in Brasil we love it. Land Cruiser is the best . Tks japan!!!

Great video... but what's the point of the CC if it's nothing like what he says in the video?

Yay finally added PRADO to the title!

Anybody else think the front of this looks more like a Jeep cherokee than the new Jeep cherokee?

hey, why doestn't car buyer do reviews on the land cruiser v8? are they not common in the UK or something?

Very informative! Nice. I have to agree with the Prado looking like Jaws.

hi, what is the size of those tyres ?

Real quality instead of "initial quality"

Being toyota you know this car is made to last I think the looks good ( tough ) its nice to be different from other people and drive something that u not gonna see at every red light

When are we getting an all-new model?

plz can u do a video review of the bigger Toyota landcruiser?

This is what we the customers want true quality instead of garbage

The most luxurious tank money can buy!

It's one of the best off roaders ever & very reliable that's why the UN use them enough said

will we see a land cruiser v8 review? :)

Manual or automatic transmission? Help please!

I got same model as shown in this video (3 litre diesel without crawl control) but sadly in my country we have 3 year warranty or 100.000 km on car. But price in UK is enormous 50k pounds is roughly 75k $ and i got mine brand new 2015 from toyota for 60k $. And oh man as i was configuring Prado on UK toyota website there was same color as mine White Pearl for 900 pounds and here i got same color for 300$

Best car i`ve ever had - dependable reliable tough as old boots and handles OK

Eres el único que conozco que no me fallas porque eres el mejor de todos los you tuber

Does it ever come in Manual

Still waiting for the new Nissan Qashqai 2014 review!

Do you know how much this cost for a 2011 model (recond) in Malaysia? around 70-80k pounds :) For a Lexus LX570, 2012 model, almost same price as a brand new 2014 Range Rover, yes a Range Rover! Or 160-170k pounds

Some people say that its ugly. But personal taste is personal taste. I think its beautiful. And if i had to choose between LR Discovery, Merc GL (GLS), Q7 or Land Cruiser, i would choose Land Cruiser. Why? Well, i want a car that i can take to some unpaved roads and dont worry about it too much. I want a car that is built tough and is reliable. If i ever want to go on a journey of 1000-1500 KM, i want it to be trouble free. Yes, RR Sport looks nice, but its 30-40% more expensive and it breaks down every month, GLS is also a lot more expensive and it has 0 off road stats against the LC. Q7 is not that high, so off road is a no go. And even Porsche is not made for anything else but asphalt. Not to mention double the price. To be realistic, in Europe, for the price of Land Cruiser you cant buy any other capable off road car that is full equiped like Toyota. The brand new one is 75k full. No other comes close.

It actually Takes upto 13 seconds for this 3.0 D4D with 160hp and 343nm of torque It's heavy around 2.3 tons

Halfway through the video, i realised i wasn't watching carwow

Great car, Reliable!

Resake value of 2014 Prado is 3x higher than 2014 BMW X5

Is it a race car next week

Good review...

does it come in the 5 seater version? i dont like d third row

how old is this video? 5 years? or is Toyota lacking seriously behind?

Does Toyota have an employee called designer or is it the same guy that builds tractors?

Euros think it's ugly. It really isn't. It just isn't over-styled like some euro cars. However, it is built for ruggedness and reliability - i.e. something that Euros are still trying to get right. If you want reliability in all terrains and all conditions, this is certainly the car for you. It's just a solid vehicle

J'ai un problème deux réservoir l'un travail l'autre non comment réparer ?

This truck in the USA is the Lexus GX

My nephew has just bought a 51 plate 150,000 mile land cruiser. I am not sure that it would be a wise buy for many other makes. Even in new vehicles they are sluggish for a vehicle likely to cost £40K plus

The best in it's segment, definitely...

I really feel like a rear diff lock should be standard. It's so common is Pajero V80s

I love Landcruiser models, but I'm always uncomfortable with the price when sold in East Africa. The same car sold in Europe can be sold in E. Africa thrice the price! I really don't know the reason, I however like driving Land cruisers of all ages.

car looks really good in person though

The petrol engine its very good. And in the vx model you can get a lot of things like off road camera and suspension adjustment live it... Don't change Toyota prado

Have the same car bit never seen the cooler pwr button😂

PLS MAKE A VIDEO ON MERCEDES BENZ CLA

Finally a real SUV instead of trash ( x5,x3,q5,q7,discovery,,lr4,mB GL,range Rover,cayenne,toureg)

For people saying its ugly, this is not a show car car it is purpose built for off roading. There is the Land Cruiser V8 or the Range Rover for those who want off roading ability and flair.

Why do you never review the actual Land Cruiser? This is just its small brother Prado

For what it is, I found it rather impressive.

Isn't this basically a Lexus gx?

Love this car

How much is this car now

Do u reckon it could roll over on the road while making a sharp turn?

nice family and safe car.

luv u Toyota 😘

..in Sabah Borneo, we call it Prado King !

the wheel why is it on the other side????????¿¿¿¿

what a lovely car

Cheeky reach-around? XD That's not very PG, Watson!

Saw one again in the flesh today. They sure did ruin those headlights. Called a Prado in Australia too.

That grille looks like a rappers dentist went to work on it

I would anyday but this over the unreliable ugly land rovers. Toyota anyday over land rover.

The discovery is reliable? Really??? Of the big 4x4's I'd own this over any Euro one with reliability as the reason, but man, I'd have to be desperate or have an exact need to buy something so expensive and ugly!

They don't sell the big V8 land cruiser in the UK.

Look at the young Matt its so funny, I dont know why)))

Its verey good vedio

Great car, real quality

Well I has seen the comments below all about ugly design still Toyota are best use in world and long life as not like other any luxury suv. Also its very easy maintenance than luxury suv. Even I love luxury suv should to buy but not agreed. I am going to buy Toyota Prado as Land cruiser next month...as my dad has 2013 Land Cruiser V8 and my mum has 2013 Rav4 are all good cars for Africa. I understand the comments :-) but still Toyota are top brand. Regards Suhail from Kenya

Cool man🚕

My boy Matt from carwow

This is a proper 4x4, not a lightweight SUV. It won't suit the urban environment as well but it is much better in remote areas and proper off-road. Outback Australia has plenty of these. It is much more important how it goes than how it looks.

The trunk is tiny with the 3rd row up!

The screen is bigger than 4.2 inch :))

This is the proper offroader unlike some luxury SUVs which are never supposed to leave Tarmac and outside ring roads of cities. If you are in outback, desert or in colombian jungle to your hide out then yu would want reliable and dependable luxury NOT other good looking don't take any where off raod SUVs.

This model is called an icon the old one was prado which I have

Not really a big fan of Toyota to be honest. Seems to me, minus the integrated fridge, there is precious little difference between this and my 52 plate Land Rover Discovery. Does all the off-road you need it to do and it has reasonable performance on road. Most likely better off with a newer Discovery. To be honest though, when we change we are looking at a Volkswagon Amarok which is far more suitable for agricultural purposes than this. New Discoveries are far too expensive, even second hand. Though saying that, I would prefer a Discovery.

Landcruiser the best will still be going strong in 30 years with 300k mileage when the rangrover, Merc etc will be long rusted and gone. Those who really know drive a Landcruiser. Posers and fools drive the rest

I actually like the Prado. Good thing Toyota is sticking to a real 4x4 chasis/SUV, unlike Nissan that converted the Pathfinder from a SUV to a crossover.

I live in the us and you have to buy this model as a Lexus and it’s gas

Where is carwow

nice car
