Thanks to standard four-wheel drive and many off-road-focused features, the 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser is a smart pick for a midsize SUV that can help you get out into nature. It's also more comfortable and easier to use in daily driving than some rival SUVs. A hard-to-access cargo area and lackluster rear seat legroom are its most significant drawbacks.Read full review

Overview

by the Edmunds Experts

3/31/2025

The 2025 Land Cruiser is Toyota's go-anywhere, do-anything SUV. It was redesigned last year with new styling, a smaller size and a new engine. Its hybridized turbocharged four-cylinder powertrain makes less power than the old V8, but it offers far superior fuel economy. Its full-time four-wheel-drive system comes with multiple off-road-specific features to make it very capable on the trail. The only significant change for 2025 is the elimination of the First Edition trim.

Cost to Drive^{Cost to drive estimates for the 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser 1958 4dr SUV 4WD (2.4L 4cyl Turbo gas/electric mild hybrid 8A) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $4.02 per gallon for premium unleaded in New York.}

Edmunds spotlight: All the off-road necessities

A full-time four-wheel-drive system with low range is the foundation of the Land Cruiser's off-road prowess, but also just the beginning. Locking center and rear differentials are standard on every Cruiser to help you maximize available traction when you're driving on rocky trails. An optional automatically disconnecting front stabilizer bar increases front wheel articulation with the push of a button. The Land Cruiser also comes with many technology-based features to help you in the dirt, such as a low-speed cruise control, different off-road traction control settings, and even available camera views that you can bring up on the dash-mounted screen to aid in precision while driving off-road.

Competitors to consider

The Jeep Wrangler and Ford Bronco provide superior off-road capability and top-off fun but at the expense of comfort and refinement compared to the Land Cruiser. The Land Rover Defender is a viable and distinctive alternative, as long as you're OK with paying more. We also recommend the Toyota 4Runner. It shares much of its underlying design with the Land Cruiser and differentiates itself with a more varied lineup of versions and an available third-row seat.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

by the Edmunds Experts

Good

7.9

out of 10

We drove the 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.^{The Edmunds Vehicle Testing Team evaluates a fresh batch of vehicles every week, pairing objective assessments at our test track with real-world driving on city streets, freeways and winding roads. The data we gather results in our Expert Ratings. They’re based on 30-plus scores that cover every aspect of the automotive experience.}

Performance

7.5/10

How does the Land Cruiser drive? Acceleration is decidedly lackluster. At our test track, the Land Cruiser accelerated from zero to 60 mph in 8.2 seconds. That's about a second and a half slower than a Land Rover Defender 110 we tested. You'll probably wish there was a little more power for highway passing. But for more routine driving, the hybrid powertrain is pleasingly smooth and responsive.

The Land Cruiser's real problems come under braking, where there is too much nosedive and it doesn't track straight under panic stops. The steering is a bit heavy and doesn't provide much feel for the road. The Land Cruiser's handling around turns is not particularly nimble, though in regular day-to-day driving it's a step above the hardcore off-roaders like the Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler in refinement. Overall off-road capability is pretty good, though more ground clearance and a more aggressive set of all-terrain tires would be nice additions for owners who actually plan on hitting up trails.

Comfort

8/10

How comfortable is the Land Cruiser? For an off-road-oriented SUV, the Land Cruiser offers a pretty comfortable experience. For the most part it is composed and doesn't get too rough riding on bumpy roads. The cabin is well insulated from wind and tire noise. The front and second-row seats are supportive, with the front seats offering a nice thigh extension and plenty of adjustment. But the back seat is situated a touch low to the cabin floor, so your knees may come up from the seat a little, and taller passengers will be wishing for a bit more legroom.

Interior

8/10

How’s the interior? The Land Cruiser's interior is awfully nice for a Toyota. All of the controls, including climate controls, are placed in a logical fashion and easy to reach from the driver's seat. There is plenty of adjustment range for both the driver's seat and the steering wheel to find a good seating position.

For such a large vehicle, the amount of backseat room is disappointing. Taller passengers will like the expansive headroom, but legroom is lacking and the seat cushion is a few inches too close to the floor.

Technology

8/10

How’s the tech? The Land Cruiser's touchscreen is ease to use and offers wireless connectivity for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay smartphone integration. There are plenty of USB ports spread throughout the cabin and a household-style plug as well.

Plenty of safety technology comes standard, including adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assistance and Proactive Driving Assist, which reads the road ahead and slows the Land Cruiser down automatically for curves and traffic. This system can be overreactive and potentially annoying; you may end up shutting it off.

Storage

7/10

How’s the storage? The 37.5 cubic feet of cargo room behind the back seat is roomy enough for daily errands and the like, but it loses some points because of the high cargo floor. Open the tailgate and you'll have to lift cargo about 4 inches higher to get it into the actual cargo area, which is elevated because of the placement of the hybrid powertrain's battery. And with the seats folded, you don't get a flat cargo area either.

Small-item storage isn't great either. The door pockets are only medium-sized, and if you opt for the available cooled console, it makes the center console storage very small. There's not really a convenient place to put anything larger than a phone.

The Land Cruiser is capable of towing up to 6,000 pounds, about average for SUVs of this size. While the four-cylinder hybrid powertrain might start to feel strained towing up a grade at higher speeds, the Land Cruiser should be able to pull a light overlanding-style camper without issue.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

Fuel Economy

7.5/10

How’s the fuel economy? The Land Cruiser's hybrid powertrain gives it better fuel economy than most of its off-road competition, with an EPA-estimated 23 mpg in combined driving. It does require premium fuel, however, which eats into the savings you'll get at the pump.

Value

7.5/10

Is the Land Cruiser a good value? It's hard to say the latest Land Cruiser offers great value. The starting price is quite high, and there are vehicles that will offer you more capability than the Land Cruiser at a slightly lower price. But the Toyota does have a nicely appointed interior with great build quality, and the lower trim levels could be built up to be more capable without too much trouble.

Wildcard

9/10

Toyota nailed the styling on the Land Cruiser. It harkens back to the aesthetic that defined Cruisers of old and still brings something new and fresh to the table. And the old-school Toyota logo with the round headlights of the 1958 trim is a fantastic touch. Driving it on road, the Land Cruiser can feel a bit tame, but once it hits the dirt the whole package makes more sense.

Which Land Cruiser does Edmunds recommend?

We recommend the Land Cruiser trim. It comes with slightly different front-end styling than the base 1958 trim as well as some desirable upgrades such as synthetic leather upholstery, ventilated front seats and a larger 12.3-inch infotainment screen.

First 2 weeks with 2024 LC 1958

SJB, 12/18/2024

2024 Toyota Land Cruiser 1958 4dr SUV 4WD (2.4L 4cyl Turbo gas/electric mild hybrid 8A)

Here is my short review of my new Land Cruiser 1958 after first two weeks of ownership. I am not going to cover the obvious like off-road capability. That's what this vehicle is intended for, so there is no point in writing about it. Positives: - Ride: For a body-on-frame, off-road oriented vehicle, the ride is pretty comfortable (better than comparable off-road vehicles) - Handling: … Again, for the type of vehicle, handling is good, without excessive body lean on curves. It's easy to control the vehicle at highway speeds. - Noise: The engine is quite noisy under heavier load, but at steady speed the interior is very quiet. Road noise is minimal (I credit the tires for it), and wind noise is only perceptible above 65-70 mph. - Seat comfort: The seats are comfortable, with the right combination of soft layer on top and firm support underneath. They are well shaped and supportive. - Build quality: I am engineer with quite a lot of experience in quality control, and I am very picky about it. Honestly, I can say that I still haven't found any fabrication quality defect with my LC. Long-term reliability is to be determined, but at least it's built well. - Creature comforts: In spite of being a base-trim, utility vehicle, it comes with a decent amount of comfort features: 3-zone auto A/C, heated seats, heated steering wheel. - Sound system: The basic sound system is actually pretty good, better than what I have experienced in other Toyotas (I had 7 of them). - Complete package: Like all Toyotas you get a complete package without having to select a myriad of "options" and "packages". It comes fully equipped for towing, and attachment points for running boards, rock rails, roof rack. Unlike other brands which start with low MSRP, but you have to pick a dozen of expensive "options" to make the car usable, this one comes complete. - Power and acceleration: It's not a sports car, but acceleration is good for the type of vehicle. The engine feels relaxed at highway speeds and rarely has to work above 2000 rpm except when accelerating. There is no turbo lag thanks to instant torque from the electric motor. - 4WD controls: No gimmicks, not fancy computer-controlled off-road modes (with a dozen of clutches that overheat and fail when you need them most), just manually selectable center differential lock, rear differential lock and 2-speed transfer case. Beats any computer-controlled system if the driver knows what he/she is doing. - Safety system: Toyota TSS 3.0 works very well. If you don't like how it keeps control of the car, most likely it's because you are just a bad driver. Neutral: - Fuel economy: I am averaging 22 mpg in mostly city driving. Better than competitors, but not outstanding. - Interior materials: I love the cloth trimmed seats which have a very nice feel to the touch. But everywhere else it's hard plastic. There is no padded surface in sight with exception of the center console lid. A bit more soft padding on the doors wouldn't cost much and make the interior a much nicer place. Negatives: - Storage space: There is very little storage space. The glovebox is minimal, the center console is small, and storage space under the trunk floor is very limited. It's hard to find space for and keep organized stuff that I typically carry with me: recovery gear, air compressor, hitch ball mount, etc. - Cargo space: The trunk floor is very high and cargo volume is small for a vehicle of this size. It's obviously bigger than a small SUV, sedan or a hatchback, but it's less than what an average mid- to big(ish)-SUV would have. It's enough for my needs, but it may be disappointing for somebody who is specifically looking for an SUV with a lot of cargo space. - Tires: I like the fact that tires are very quiet, but they are useless for any type of off-roading. A vehicle in this category should come with truck-type tires with at least a bit more aggressive tread and reinforced sidewalls. - Transmission shifting: The transmission shifts OK when accelerating, but downshifts are harsh when slowing down to a stop. Verdict: If you are looking for a very capable off-road SUV that you can also use and enjoy as a daily driver and/or family vehicle, the new Land Cruiser strikes the right balance. It is much more practical and comfortable than Jeep Wrangler or Ford Bronco. On the other hand, typical family-oriented SUVs like the Toyota Highlander, KIA Telluride, Hyundai Santa Fe or Honda Pilot simply can't go places the Land Cruiser can.

2024 Toyota Land Cruiser 4dr SUV 4WD (2.4L 4cyl Turbo gas/electric mild hybrid 8A)

The land cruiser lusted for 69,185.00. I purchased it 3 weeks ago it looks great handles great. The 4 cylinder engine is ample enough for highway speeds. Unfortunately there is almost no storage and the center console is great if you don't need to carry anything. My biggest issue after driving it for the first week i noticed a vibration in the drivers seat so i took it back to the …

2024 Toyota Land Cruiser 4dr SUV 4WD (2.4L 4cyl Turbo gas/electric mild hybrid 8A)

Agree with previous review regarding the kind of noisy acceleration of the turbo 4. Very diesel like. To get the fuel economy, torque, and supreme off road capability I think we have to "get used to" some trade off's here and there. If you want a comfy, quiet highway cruiser then there are definitely better options. This is a serious Overlander, so if that's your genre, then 5 …

I currently love 99% of this vehicle. It’s comfortable, perfect size for maneuvering and parking vs. the huge pickup I had prior and our Tahoe. Technology is wonderful and PLENTY of power from the drivetrain. My only nit pick is how noisy the engine is on acceleration. I’m getting use to it but it reminds me of a diesel. If that doesn’t bother you, you can’t go wrong with adding the …

Toyota 4Runner vs. Land Cruiser vs. Tacoma: Which One Comes Out on Top?

The Toyota 4Runner and Land Cruiser are both iconic models in their own right — but with the latest Land Cruiser’s reduction in both size and price, they’re actually pretty close competitors too. Throw in the Tacoma with which the 4Runner shares many pieces, and you’ve got three very similar vehicles occupying ever so slightly different niches within Toyota’s lineup. But…
