Like the Jeep Wrangler, the Toyota Land Cruiser is one of the few SUVs with a reputation for being able to reliably tackle any terrain. First introduced in the early ‘50s, the Land Cruiser has morphed from a rough-and-tumble SUV into a luxury-oriented vehicle that can still handle whatever you throw at it. For 2016, Toyota made a series of improvements to the Land Cruiser that included a new transmission, updated safety features, and a revised interior, so the 2017 model will not see any notable changes.
With a starting price of $84,325, the 2017 Land Cruiser is the most expensive model in the Toyota showroom. Its exterior design can be summed up with one word: boxy. The front features a large grille, projector-beam LED headlights, and a reshaped bumper, while the rear has a split-opening tailgate and LED taillights. It gets 18-inch wheels with standard off-road tires.
The Land Cruiser’s interior is made up of leather upholstery and other high-quality materials, although some may be disappointed that it doesn’t feel as premium as the new Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class or the Cadillac Escalade. A revised dashboard provides a more convenient layout, a larger 9-inch touchscreen, and Toyota’s Entune infotainment system. The Land Cruiser seats 8 people across 3 rows, although the cramped third row is best reserved for small kids or simply folded to the vehicle’s sides for increased cargo room. Those sitting in the second row have their own set of climate controls, heated seats that slide fore and aft for more legroom, and a rear entertainment system with a pair of 11.6-inch displays. Compared to its competitors, the Land Cruiser’s cargo capacity is small at 16.1 cubic feet, but folding the third row leaves 43 cubic feet, and stowing the second row, too, brings total cargo space to 81.7 cubic feet.
The Land Cruiser is powered by a 5.7-liter V8 engine that produces 381 hp and 401 lb-ft of torque and is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Fuel economy is slightly disappointing for the class‚ with EPA figures of 13 mpg city, 18 highway, and 15 combined, although maximum towing capacity stands at an impressive 8,100 pounds.
Along with a full-time 4-wheel-drive (4WD) system, the Land Cruiser has a 2-speed transfer case that varies power delivery depending on whether you’re driving on the expressway or tackling a rocky trail. Toyota’s Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System allows the stabilizer bars to decouple for better wheel travel. Other clever features include Multi-Terrain Select, which adapts throttle response, shift points, and brake control for off-road driving; Crawl Control, which acts as a low-speed cruise-control system for tackling difficult terrain; and the Multi-Terrain Monitor system, which provides a 360-degree view of the vehicle’s surroundings.
Toyota updated the Land Cruiser’s safety credentials last year with the introduction of the Safety Sense P suite, which added a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, lane-departure warning, radar cruise control, and automatic high beams. Other standard safety equipment includes a reversing camera, a full complement of airbags, traction and stability control, trailer-sway control, and Toyota’s Safety Connect telematics system. The Land Cruiser has not been crash-tested by either the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

We love the truck but we have had several issues with electronics on it that break. The Diesel engine is very powerful and gets great gas mileage. The diesel fluid is a pain to top up and oil changes are painful as well. We still love how it drives overall. Mar 15, 2021

Sure, its expensive and might not have the up-to-the-minute tech and gimmicks, but if you want the best SUV built and plan to keep it 15+ years, you absolutely cannot go wrong. People trash the fuel economy, but its no different than any other full size vehicles Toyota offers. Its a old school v8, I dont expect 25mpg. Overall, awesome vehicle that with basic maintenance can last generations. There are cheaper options for similar sized vehicles, but you will buy burn out 3 of those before the Landcruiser is tired.Oct 10, 2020

Very Good Fit and Finish. Very expensive truck we know it is suppose to be a lifetime purchase, we could not get over the body lunge and roll. We have had Suburbans, 3/4 pick ups and Tahoes, driving it felt more like driving our 2003 Tahoe that had 200K, than a 2017 with 19K miles. May 26, 2020
