FIRST DRIVE: The Land Cruiser is her and Toyota has brought big changes. On the outside you will find on the 1958 road heritage style headlights, flat black accents and 20in wheels. On the inside you will be greeted by a heritage style cloth interior. Under the hood is a 2.4L turbocharged inline-4 hybrid that is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Is the 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser 1958 A BETTER new SUV than a 2025 4Runner?

@Name-kd5jj 29 дней назад

I really like the base model with manual controls, cloth seats etc. But for the price it seems a bit crazy. If it started at say $45,000 it would be good. But cloth seats and 7 inch display at $55,000? That's luxury car prices. I know in the past you paid more for the extra build quality and reliability, but this is the Prado. Is it really worth that much more?
