2025 Toyota Land Cruiser

Toyota reinvented its iconic off-roader last year after a two-year hiatus. Now sharing its frame with Toyota’s Tacoma and 4Runner, as well as the larger Tundra and Sequoia, the mid-size, five-seat SUV trades the last generation’s naturally aspirated V-8 for a turbocharged four-cylinder hybrid powertrain. What it retains is the level of off-road capability that made it an icon — and it starts some $30,000 cheaper than its predecessor. The Land Cruiser has some intra-company competitors in the Lexus GX 550 (which is essentially a luxury version of the Land Cruiser) and the redesigned-for-2025 4Runner. It also competes with the Jeep Grand Cherokee and four-door versions of the Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler.
