Toyota doesn't make a new truck for 20 years and then hits us with an awesome lineup of off-roaders. I'm here for it. Hopefully the powertrains will hold up.
I can't even enjoy these videos anymore when every vehicle is 80k+
Get used to it. Prices are only going up from here. Build back better 😂
Record corporate profits.
jeep should seriously make a minijeep wrangler again, it is 2 seater and barely any metal on it for 20K, people would freak out.
The Land Cruiser started at $80k 10 years ago
@@Ruddlinetoo many regulations and safety features unfortunately makes it next to impossible
Toyota/Lexus have been on a roll with these gorgeous boxy SUVs. They nailed the retro styling on this new LC
I really like this version of Land Cruise looks sick
Absolutely love the front on the 1958 edition. Definitely the one I would get if I was in the market for one of these.
the market ups are wild right now for land cruisers. i wish we could just buy direct.
Inside views of 1958 and then outside views land cruiser edition
I love how all these reviews like this is so off-road worthy while they drive on a dirt road. Someone please buy one and really take it on a trail
The 2nd or 3rd owner might actually off-road it lol
It’s wild how deliveries started this week when the first North American reviews came out last week
Tesla could never
@@Benjiefrenzy “next year”
They did a way better roll-out than most manufacturers
@JStryker7 "Cybertruck will come out in 2022" lmao that was a good one
Love the review. However, I thought this was the 1958 review? What’s with the other model rock climbing?
"The one to get" 😂😂😂😂. Good luck getting any model. I'm from Toronto and called the biggest dealer in area when they launched the land cruiser. I wanted to order one. They said they have so many names on list they wouldn't even put me in the line to get one. Good luck ordering one, maybe you can get in USA but good luck in Canada.
Impressive power figures for a four cylinder. I hope these don’t overheat.
i feel like toyota would have worked that one out
How did the vehicle change from the “1958” version back to the original version (with the straight headlights) during the off road cutaways?! Seems a bit strange fella’s!
Toyota really killed it with the retro styling
يا الهي كأنكم في داخلي كل مقطع اتخيله أجده مباشرة انتم تعيشون في عقلي شكرا من قلبي
Gonna be in hi demand is an understatement... Good luck... Although I agree that simple white with steelies and hard touch plastic is perfect! Love the factory road tires too. Too many dudes with mud terrains going to hit the gym and Safeway. Nice video!
Nobody else notice the Edit Yuri did with the guy putting on the shades in the top middle or was that just me 👀
I did - looked cool :)
Edit? lol
@@TheStraightPipes To edit or not to edit… that is the question. Jokes aside it made me laugh a lot.
This model of land cruiser is the best looking Toyota this year
Man I dont know the 4-runner looks super good IMO I think for whats been announced this year I would rate the least good looking to best 3. Camry 2. Landcruiser 1. 4-runner tho if we throw the lexus counterpart in the gx550 that sweeps the floor
today I learned just headlights alone can make a car look totally different
Great review, but the editing, from going from the Blue b-roll to the White Land Cruiser drove me crazy. Like which one did you actually review? I still want the 1958 version regardless
1958 review. We had zero time to film exterior driving shots so the blue one is press video
Love the rock crawling b roll switching to Land Cruiser trim lol
How sick would it be if it came in a manual
I want one so much. I have no real need for one and I definitely can’t afford one, but I want one.
I wish there was an option with no screens, just simple gauges, and a simple 6 cylinder engine, but this is still cool.
Where in San Diego was that course? Is it open to the public? Great video!
The packaging in the back is a deal breaker for me. That bump is so impractical. Honestly just finance an extra $10k and get a GX. It’s the better rig
If you want a female looking vehicle
@@mysteriousoklahoma777 you need to have you’re eyes checked haha the GX is the high earning executive who also does Ironmans of SUVs the LC looks like something his kid would drive. Still nice but fun and spunky, not slick and chiseled
It’s cool how the color changed on the car half way through.
This vehicle exactly(in white) and never think about or buy another car for the rest of my life.
Same. And it would last forever
We will be on the hunt to replace our 16 year old ML350. We really love the idea of the hybrid. Would not want 3rd row option. But not so crazy about the 8 cubic feet of cargo space you lose (seats in place) vs the Lexus LX 550 because of the battery according to the spec sheets. When we pack our current SUV it is full. Just need to see it and measure it. The GX550 Overtrail is pretty cool too, just not a hybrid....yet.
Shoutout to sunglasses guy as the boys take off
I enjoy everything about the 1958 and would buy I’m just curious where in pricing is the 4Runner trail hunter would be.
I love that Toyota is giving people two very different looks for the front end. They both look fantastic. I'd have serious problems trying to decide. 😄
00:24 got my dying lol
The drone following is 👍👍
I am team round headlamps with the trail dust color
Wait, do the rear seats fold flat?
All these new Toyota release videos make me think I need to buy a comfortable economy car for the week, and an 80 series Land Cruiser for off-road.
I'd like that 1958 in 3 rows.
In other markets diesel gets 3r
Great car!
So no 3 row in Canada?
What’s it cost to replace the battery and Turbos?...
I wouldnt trust a battery located at the bottom to be waterproof forever; wrote off my offroad version of the Merc GL that way. Water got in the battery (under floor) and the insurer didn't want to give their lifetime warranty on repairs as electrical issues could pop up anywhere down the line. The wading depth was 60 cm; I was driving with water at just below door level...
Is the second row seats Removable or are they welded to the frame?
Probably removable with several bolts based on older models. There may be a airbag sensor you may not want to trip though. I'm sure overlanders will be doing this as soon as they get them. I'm curious to know aswell
Right at time: 0:25 do you see what I see?
Europe gets three rows because their base model is a diesel engine, therefore there is no hybrid battery in the back allowing for the necessary amount of headroom for a third row. With the hybrid in the back, there isn’t enough space between the cargo area and headliner to safely seat occupants.
The gx overtrail is surprisingly cheaper than the first edition at least here in the us
I like how the 1958 doesn’t have roof rails or side steps
@straighpipes you could always get together with @truckKing and hit up some offroad things in Ontario
If only the seats folded flat in the back...
It looks like they kind of do, just when they show it they tilt forward to give access for people climbing into the imaginary 3rd row. That's my hope anyway but would have to see one in person and climb back there to see if I can sleep in it like my 4runner.
My thoughts exactly. Or a pull up seat and fold down back like the old 4runner. But manufacturing wise seems easier to make all the seats the same
We gotta have our circles folks
Haha that was a hella fun video!
When the back seats are folded, is it flat to the trunk?
Nope. Not for any of the new models - GX/4R/LC - none of them fold flat now.
New Crown Signia folds really flat, it's like a crossover wagon, but yeah these TNGA-F trucks aren't going to fold flat.
Lol a Corolla could've driven through the water feature. I think Yuri has a point with the hybrids and water forging.
The blue car exterior shots were manufacturer provided b roll. It was at least 1cm deeper for us 😂
Instant replay was sweet lol
Jakub is so bad at remembering - Jakub
😂 I glanced at thumbnail and clicked thinking this was an FJ cruiser review! That’s interesting. Gives lots of FJ cruiser vibes.
0:25 Big brother is watching, don’t mess up my Cruiser!!!
I think the main reason they didn't bring the 300 series to North America is because we have the Sequoia. Basically they fill the same spot in the lineup to most consumers but the Land Cruiser is more capable and more expensive. So when people wanted a full size Toyota SUV they had to choose between the two. The Sequoia was offered with lower trims that were much cheaper while the Land Cruiser was only offered in the very top trim. So this raises the question: Why didn't Toyota kill the Sequoia and offer lower trims for the LC like what they have in literally every other market? The Sequoia has been around for about 20 years while the LC has been around for over 60 and has become an automotive legend. With the Sequoia gone and with a lower price tag the Land Cruiser would have sold very well. Now we have the Prado which fills the same space as the 4runner but once again is offered with fewer trims and a higher price tag. Then you have the Lexus GX which is only a little more money but with a better engine, more equipment, nicer interior and the bragging rights of owning a Lexus. So basically the new LC is going to most likely flop. They should have just killed the Sequoia and given us the 300 series.
The lx is the 300 so it wouldn’t have made sense to keep 3 different versions of the same suv cause it would hurt sales and manufacturing
@@demize6 Yeah get rid of the Sequoia and you have the Land Cruiser 300 and the LX600.
In this market, no car is going to flop. There’s a waiting list for almost everything, especially if it has 4wd.
They don't get mirrors in Canada.
Very nice
The white reminds me of the UN edition
Nice
Too bad it’s a Turbo 4 Cylinder. I would buy one if it wasn’t. I had a Turbo 4 in a Jeep Wrangler and they are not at all ideal for off roading!! The turbo kicks in when you don’t want it to and you lurch. I went back to a naturally aspirated V6. Much smoother and controlled throttle response.
Toyota should add a Torsen front Diff
why y'all complaining the price, in asia (Indonesia) LC is $160.000 & five year waiting list!
The lack of a 3rd row option in the NA market seems a horrendous decision. Hopefully it's just because they expect initial demand to be so high. They need to make that available at some point.
If you need a 3rd row this is not the vehicle for you. Get a Sequoia or a Tahoe.
No one buys off roaders for 3rd row
the GX 550 preuiem has a 3rd row same price as the land cruiser trim
@@Mycameron2323 nah, the reality is most people buying this won't be going off road. Just people who like to think they will, or want others to think they will, or they just like the space. Same as with all SUVs (including Land Cruisers) in the last 30 years.
@@johnathoncastro they literally sell this with a 3rd row elsewhere and the 4Runner offers it, so clearly Toyota does have that market in mind as well in this size vehicle. Sequoias and Tahoe's are too big for most. Some just need the 3rd row as an occasional option and don't want a land yacht. The Sequoia is also...let's say cosmetically unfortunate.
Really a Prado as you guys don't get the LC300
the land cruiser will probably be on the top of the list for "Most Stolen Vehicles" in the years to come. especially if you're from Toronto
These government emissions mandates are ridiculous. And this is why auto makers have to squeeze the kind of power they are with electric motor assist. And of course they are deeming it new tech in vehicles when it's really mandated and justify charging what they do. What a racket.
Basically all SUV’s and trucks are a racket, these are just the top for those aspirational outdoorsy types that 90% of those purchasers will never actually go do. But hey, gotta keep up with the Jones’s! Especially those Jone’s down the street using all that gas to enjoy the uh, outdoors!
This is why Canada needs to develop their own vehicle regulations and adopt EU regulations, rather than only following US mandates which is why we can’t get any of the better vehicles in Canada is because of this reason.
You meant the all new FJ Cruiser
Why would I buy this over a GX with a V6? Not that much of a price difference.
The dealer markup is gonna be crazy
The Old School of 1958 Land Cruiser version of the 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser was amazing cars ever!!!
I almost planned to go buy one this week then saw no third row... Nevermind.
Luxury meets performance
I want the 70 series so bad
I'd rather wait a few years until they work out the kinks, I'll stick with my 5th gen 4runner for a while
Weird optional illusion at 0:25 ? Lol
Or was that on purpose ???
I almost wiped my screen
Toyota dropped the ball big time with the powerplant they chose for this. It is blasphemous to name this a Land Cruiser, 4 cylinder hybrids belong in economy sedans not off road vehicles. Sad to see such a great looking vehicle with that kind of legacy be neutered this way.
FJ Cruiser baby
Premium fuel only. Kind of defeats any mileage gains.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Whether use it or not or care about it or not it unacceptable that it wouldn’t come with a basic moonroof standard
This is such a sweet car I think I will grab a 2009 GX470 and drop $10k in offroad mods and call it a day.😂
@Yuritereshyn photoshop the white 1958 with the UN emblem on it!
Half assed video, which edition are you supposed to be showing
The engine bay has no room for a dual battery setup.
For $55k you should get a full sized screen.
I love the new Land Cruiser, but at that price (even the base model) it's a no go, i don't see 55K in value there.
Less costs way more. Repossessions are skyrocking already this year. Next year it’ll be off the charts. Yet the banks still approve the loans.
LAND CRUISER > 4RUNNER
Obv
I’d agree even if they had the exact same capability. I can’t stand the toddler styling and ridiculous laptop screen
LAND CRUISER < 4RUNNER
@@maximeparent3004 all caps is fitting for someone with that opinion
I like them both. The 2025 4Runner is sportier looking and has better clearance (for those who actually offroad). The J250 LC has more of a Euro look to it. Interiors are a push...really comes down to the screen style you prefer (too bad NO screen isn't an option). The 4Runner offers the 3rd row, which will unfortunately make it the only option for some.
Ok. Surely I'm not the only one who saw the ghost at the beginning... Either that or this grass is just top shelf. Great review as always boys..
uummhh 4runner or this ??
If only it wasn't $55k+ Not nearly worth it.
More like $85k or more with mark ups. When in reality this is $35k - $45k vehicle.
@@johnathoncastro 10% tax lic dealer doc fee etc
If it *can* be a 2 _or_ 3 row, it's already a bad size. Mitsubishi Outlander, KIA Sorento, Mercedes GLB, it's all compromised with the worst of both segments. I hate the Passport, but at least it splits the difference enough from the Pilot.
Already marked up $8-10k at most places I've seen.
Nice Rollie
Now I just need 100k to spend on a Toyota and I’ll be set
A cylinder Landcruiser..Im logging off
Bruh 55k us is 75k plus tax which equals 84,750 out the door for a base 1958 😢
After watching the Yangwang U8, I can't be impressed by this Toyota. It's still cool, though.
Wish there were more exterior color options for the 1958.
