New Toyota Land Cruiser: See why it’s better than ever before!

Meet the all-new Toyota Land Cruiser!
It’s been 72 years since Toyota released the very first Land Cruiser, and since then there have been over 10 generations of this off-roading legend! The question is, has this new edition been worth the wait?
Well based on looks alone, we’d say it definitely has! The new Land Cruiser rolls up with a retro, boxy design that reminds us of a classic Defender, Suzuki Jimny, and Mercedes G-Class. Whether you’re looking at it from the front, side, or rear, the boxy design is clear to see and we absolutely love it!
What’s more, Toyota will also be releasing a limited edition First Edition model which ramps up the retro style even more! This will arrive with rounded headlamps, as well as the choice of some limited-edition two-tone paint jobs.
While the exterior is keeping things retro, the interior has been notably modernised. It may keep things a bit boxy, but there’s a huge infotainment screen on the dash, a digital drivers display, as well as a large centre console that can even house a fridge.
There are a couple of engine choices available, although they won’t be released in all markets. When it comes to petrol, the entry-level will be a 2.7-litre 4-cylinder with 163hp and 246Nm. There will also be a more powerful 2.4-litre turbo petrol with 281hp and 430Nm, however, both of these won’t be available globally. The entry-level diesel is a 2.8-litre turbo diesel with 204hp and 500Nm, which is pretty similar to the engine from the outgoing Land Cruiser. You can also expect a mild hybrid and full hybrid selection to go on sale in the future.
We don’t know the price yet, but given the last Land Cruiser cost from at least £40,000, you can expect to be paying a bit more for this new model. But will it be worth it?! You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

I love it. I drive a 2006 LC3 which I still think looks awesome and I haven’t upgraded it because until now there was nothing out there I preferred. And I’m including the more recent shape in that because I think they spoiled it; with the larger body and flush arches the wheels look kind of “tucked in” like a bus, and the smaller grille adds to the nondescript image. A 4x4 needs to look bold and rugged for me, and the earlier LC3 ticked that box with the sculpted wide arches and aggressive grille layout. This new J250 definitely fits that bill. Whatever the new price will be, it will be a good investment because these trucks not only go forever (I’m on 300k miles and going strong) they also have a timeless look, especially this new one. So depending on what our Eco-obsessed government decides to do, and depending on whether the hybrid version will be available, this could be the last vehicle you need to buy for a very, very long time.

I had hoped they would give it the V6 in the Lexus GX. The 2.8 Diesel is a tad underpowered considering it's what most people outside of North America go for. But overall, it's a very welcome and good-looking refresh for the Prado.

They need to drop the 3.5L V6 twin turbo diesel option in it.

Toyota is back on track with the body aesthetics. Boxy is the way to go for 4x4 utility vehicles, no matter how luxurious. The previous models just looked 'not fit for purpose' and really comical, like the 'apron' grill on the lexus.

Very good looking Land Cruiser. More importantly, it looks rugged and fun as a modern 4x4 that is more affordable than the previous generation LC.

It is good to see a return to more practical boxy shapes for 4x4 vehicles. As a Discovery 5 owner, I really hope that Land Rover get the hint and that the successor (Discovery 6?) returns to a styling reminiscent of the Discovery 4. Toyota have done really well with the design of the Prado and the 70 series and as all three Land Cruiser variants will now be available here in Japan. The until now very boring Japanese 4x4 market has suddenly become far more interesting. Even the Mitsubishi Triton is making a return to Japan although due to anal Japanese regulations, it is a hard buy because of the humongous running costs involved in owning a '1 number' (commercial vehicle designation on number plate) vehicle is not practical for most. Mitsubishi need to bring out a new Pajero which would be a '3 number' designation and far, far cheaper to own.
