2018 Toyota Land Cruiser

A celebration of 65 years


Toyota have revealed a new Land Cruiser at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show. Throughout its 65 years of being one of the world’s toughest and most reliable 4x4s the Land Cruiser remains true to its ability to combine outstanding quality, durability, reliability, off-road performance and ever-greater levels of luxury and comfort.

The new Land Cruiser inherits this reputation but with more styling, sophistication, comfort and improvements to its performance both on and off the roads. The cabin features front seat ventilation, rear seat heating and automatic climate control. While electric features have been added for further convenience: heated windscreen, heated washer nozzles, reverse-tilting door mirrors and a new smart key design.

Keeping its heritage, the grille features thick, chrome vertical bars with slit-shaped cooling openings. To create a more athletic and dynamic look the front bumper has been raised and the wing line plus the front and rear bumpers have been aligned.
