Ider Erdenebayar I wouldn’t say so😂, maybe the old g class but the newer models are just complete luxury suv and have absolutely no advantage in off-roading or durability like a Land cruiser, sure they are told to be “off-roaders” by Mercedes but let’s be honest here😂 you take that thing to the outback and in no time the fancy sensors start to glitch 😂
And both of you ( S S and Carbon ) are the type of guys who buy cars because they're a badge snob and think they're Superior and better than anyone because you look "rich"
Most guys are testing that card wrong, they speak about 0-60 acceleration, dashboard quality and infotainment without going off road and pulling caravan!
Land Cruisers is for old money, not "new money". Old money didn't give a f about looking rich because they already are rich. And tbh they don't want to look rich.
You people are butthurt lmao. Generally people use cars for like 5-8 years. Also a car won't be perfect with just being reliable. Comparing both ones after 20 years?? X7 is the better car and LC is known for durability and that alone doesn't make it the better car

Sweet matt. This is a legend and can’t be compared to any vehicles you are comparing it too. Having owned three, and two range rovers which were junk, my two land cruisers are still going strong.
Yep. A land cruiser is not for people that test the cushiness of the inside of the sun visor tray. That's a gimmick. That thing needs to drive to puddles of salt water and not fall to pieces 2 years later. That thing must be able to be roughly pulled out some place it might got stuck without tearing the frame to shit. This thing must be able to fall on some rocks to the underbody without it sacking through this axels or have fluids leaking. This thing must be able to stand idle in the scorching sun for 4 hours straight without overheating. It must start in one go after its big ass engine sat still for 2 months on the north pole.
@@johngoe420 idk what ya'll are talking about. its an $85k USD car so he compared it to a bmw x7 which is $75k USD. both SUVs and both in the same price point. he's 100% aware it can be used to off road..so can an x7
I don't think it's completely down to that and as new most of the driving done in these is on regular roads and be the "safe choice" for school runs and just look good and as a status symbol (at least here in Finland where every car costs a shitload of money)... At least here these go to be used on forest roads and offroading after they're 10-15 years old... not many dare to use them offroad before their value has decently dropped... Might be part of the reason IMHO
All his reviews are like that. Even with supercars, wastes time showing you the damn cup holders and cheap plastics. No mention of the incredible reliability on the LC either despite him trying to make out the interior is poorly made- which it isn't.
They don’t understand it because they’ve never EVER driven outdoor more than 15 minutes. Bit of a joke reviewing the interior....i guess this is important for Matt stuck on the M1 for 3 hours.
The V8 Petrol is not the one to buy. In Australia, the V8 Twin Turbo Diesel is the business. I've seen them with 600,000klms on the clock and still going strong.
It can do more than 1 or 2 mil miles... I had gone inside one a friend of my father had one... Then in my country the price got up of the land cruiser... So he sold it... He almost got the same price that he had bought it for!!
I am really surprised to see the lack of you knowledge on reviewing the 4X4. You missed almost everything that should be reviewed for any 4X4. All the best
I totally agree, this review is wanting. If you wanted luxury features why not review the Lx570 model? The Landcruiser roars to life when being driven and after the Prado review in Namibia I expected quite a bit more on this review, as this beast is better than a Prado The man was just hating, the drive was also not that interesting

@@DobriBosnjanin1832 than those people bought the wrong vehicle I went to the desert in algeria with a friend of mine with his Land cruiser 2014 We had to go off roading on the sand to reach our distination The land cruiser made a perfect job, it's power was so good that it didn't let us sink inside the sand He also told me the Land cruiser has a light chassis, we also didn't even use 4x4 with differential lock with low tire pressure and it did a perfect job Unfortunately, it's hella expensive but it's the vehicle that every serious person need (Detailed infos: it was a petrol engine)
Buy it in your 30s and your grandkids will drive it to college, just fill it up and change oil. Got one in family with 251K miles and still 250K to go.
@@unknownunknowns its same or say 10-15K expensive that the competition but last double the age, so i ain't complaining. only thing we upgraded in ours was the head unit, got a ipad pro install in dash. Its a work horse, we go thru some bad weather and it have kept the family safe.
Harbir Brar But $85K is still too much, though. A more economical buy would be a Dodge Durango RT with a 5.7L HEMI engine. It may not be as luxurious as an MB GLS 450 but it would be $20K to $30K less than the Land Cruiser. Also, the HEMI engine seems simpler than the LC’s because the HEMI only has a SOHC while this one has DOHC. So, maybe the Dodge can last longer than the Toyota, even.
In Saudi we have a lot of engines a 4.0 L v6 petrol engine 285 HP a 4.6 L v8 petrol 301 HP a 4.5 turbo diesel v8 and a 5.7 v8 petrol engine which is the biggest engine .. for the full land cruiser but for the prado we have a 2.7 L v4 petrol 164 HP a 4.0 L v6 235HP a 2.4 L turbo diesel and a 2.8 L turbo diesel .. so we are the main market for the land cruiseres 🙂
Here in the US the Prado is only offered as a Lexus only with a 4.6L V8. We do have two versions of the Land Cruiser (Toyota and Lexus LX), but both come with the same 5.7L V8. For some reason the Lexus version gets an extra 2 hp and 2 lb ft of torque.
This car is made with prooven tech when others are trying to go further, hella expensive for what it is, a 2009 design with minor improvements for that price ? Would get a range rover and pay for the fixes it needs.
@@Karan-vp7uk the sad reality is that a Toyota is way more reliable and will outlast any Rolls Royce, so yeah there's no comparison there.....BUT I wouldn't say no to a RR Wraith 😂😂😂😂😂
darkmatter.99 Are you stupid😂 toyotas exspecially cruisers hold their resale price so well and they are so reliable. Unlike your range rovers, audis and bmws which depriciate ridiculously
Matt you should review this SUV when you are actually in the mood.. it looks like you had to go someplace else and someone just forced you to make a video
Mat, if you’re reading this, have you seen how you reviewed the Land Cruiser and how Doug Demero reviewed it? Most people don’t buy a Land Cruiser because of its utility, quirks and features. They buy it because of their reliability.
As long as cars comes with morden design they hav to improve some feature not just the old things alwayz.. we love L.cruizer but they have to manufacture with morden feature also.. #Cruizer for ever.
None of those cars and trucks he review actually match up with this beast..... this LC is on another level all together. And you will appreciate it much better in places where good roads are hard to come by.
@Walter Wanami You can't just keep regurgitating a *10-year OLD SUV with a 10-year old interior* when everyone else has gone through at least a new generation of their big SUVs (G-Class, Range Rover, even the Nissan Patrol all got big refreshes)...
oh dear this comment section is too salty hahah there's no denying about the LC's reliability and it's truly an iconic and legendary vehicle, however I wish Toyota made some efforts to put changes and updates for its interior. I mean if I really want to get an extreme off-roader or something to take on the outback, why would I pay for 80k+ for a new LC if I can clearly get a second-hand in good condition LC which is way cheaper and can probably outlived most cars SUVs trucks on the road?
Paolo Ariedo You people try to make the same argument. While it may be a ten year old design, if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it. Same with the gu patrol. Came out in 1997, went off sale in 2014 and 2016 in Australia. It’s a proven formula and those cars are the most common to see here all kitted out with off-road things.

@@saintbarnabasshackles2437 Yes, because it's so easy to convert 13mpg (US) to l/100km within seconds for it to stay relevant and not get lost in a video. Let me show you how you can make it in seconds. First you have to calculate how many km is 13 miles - 13*1,609=20,917 km Then you convert one US gallon to litres - 1 US gal=3,785 l When you have calculated it within a second (because it's so easy, you don't need a calculator), you can proceed with dividing 20,917 to 3,785 - 20,917/3,785=5,526. Being such a bright mind as you are, you can now divide 100 with 5,526 - 100/5,526=18,096 And you have got yourself a result - 18,1 l/100km. It was so easy. Also 235,21/mpg formula is so widely spreaded (it was a joke if you didn't understand). Let's just hope that the presenter will mention next time as well what gallons are we using.
@@Olph1 BMW X7, Mercedes GLS, Cadillac Escalade. It has an outdated 8 inch screen whereas all competition have 12 inch screens that are super modern, also the LC doesn't have a digital gauge cluster, it still has an old school shifter and the overall interior design is very dated. The exterior looks like it was from 15 years ago. and for 85k?? No way (at least not for me)
@@kristians2704 we all have our preferences but I’d feel more comfortable and happier purchasing the LC. The 12 inch screen is not a dealbreaker for me. All are nice vehicles though.
This suv feels very old inside and outside and is not quite good to drive as it's rivals. Suvs should be easy to live with as well. This suv feels very cheap inside and has one of the worst infotainment systems. Now if you compare it to the BMW, the land cruiser does nothing better than reliability compared to it's rivals.
Samit Gupta That’s kind of the point... this car isn’t a fashion statement, nor an average family car. That’s not it’s intent. It’s a rugged off-roader that would outmatch anything in its class. It’s reliable, rugged, large, and quite utilitarian. But I guess you value unreliability and a badge on your car?

Probably this is the only carwow verdict that I don’t personally agree with . LC is the only vehicle in the world for which we can confidently say anytime to anyone.. BUY IT !
He's from England. They are inherently biased against Asian cars anyway, but they just don't understand this type of car. England is overcrowded, with narrow roads, and very little need for 4x4 a ability. Chelsea tractors are what the people there need...
You’re probably not familiar with dust in the UK and Europe...we are in Australia!

Nothing dumbass the land cruiser is and always will be an outdated, inefficient, boring looking, cheap interior having stupid suv that only ignorant boomers buy. Stay mad Toyota fan boy
Hey Matt if ur wandering why Land Cruiser doesn’t have the fancy electronic interior like such as Range Rover, X7, etc is because regular car manufacturers only expect their car to last 10-15 years while Toyota wants the Land Cruiser to last 20-25 years. So yeah u can still drive this bad boy with no problem in the years of 2040s 👍👍👍
I absolutely looove this car! This is a super durable car. Mat, i think you don't fully understand who this car is for or who would appreciate it. A person who would buy this would not buy an X7 and vice versa. I think some of your jabs at this car were just silly, its like you were reviewing it for your own personal taste... very bias.
I agree this car is super reliable, good resale value and in my country almost all rich people have this. I think matt make a big mistake when do this review because he didn't know the purpose of this car.
You're obviously a Toyota fan boy who doesn't understand that "functionality" doesn't give Toyota an excuse to cheap out on interiors, you saw how stone age looking that interior was. Pretty much all new Toyotas are like this, not everyone is poor enough to keep the same car for like 30 years so "bulletproof" reliability is pretty much useless, oh and a cheaper land rover discovery is better off road ;-)
Leave it to every reviewer to leave out how reliable and how much value a Toyota/Lexus will hold no matter how many years past, to the point where they just say "consider" it as a purchase.

You should do a comparison of the bmw x7 and the land cruiser in 20 years from now and see how they're both holding up
That German pos will have long ago been in the junkyard.

You can't. The BMW x7 is going to be a melted piece of metal that is going to get molded to make a new car out of recycled shit.
How can you even compare those two?
You people are butthurt lmao. Generally people use cars for like 5-8 years. Also a car won't be perfect with just being reliable. Comparing both ones after 20 years?? X7 is the better car and LC is known for durability and that alone doesn't make it the better car

Yep. A land cruiser is not for people that test the cushiness of the inside of the sun visor tray. That's a gimmick. That thing needs to drive to puddles of salt water and not fall to pieces 2 years later. That thing must be able to be roughly pulled out some place it might got stuck without tearing the frame to shit. This thing must be able to fall on some rocks to the underbody without it sacking through this axels or have fluids leaking. This thing must be able to stand idle in the scorching sun for 4 hours straight without overheating. It must start in one go after its big ass engine sat still for 2 months on the north pole.

Just like Doug DeMuro, they don't understand the land cruiser
I don't think it's completely down to that and as new most of the driving done in these is on regular roads and be the "safe choice" for school runs and just look good and as a status symbol (at least here in Finland where every car costs a shitload of money)... At least here these go to be used on forest roads and offroading after they're 10-15 years old... not many dare to use them offroad before their value has decently dropped... Might be part of the reason IMHO
We all know it's the king of off-roading and it's the same damn car since 2009, no point repeating how good it is😄.
All his reviews are like that. Even with supercars, wastes time showing you the damn cup holders and cheap plastics.
No mention of the incredible reliability on the LC either despite him trying to make out the interior is poorly made- which it isn't.
They don’t understand it because they’ve never EVER driven outdoor more than 15 minutes. Bit of a joke reviewing the interior....i guess this is important for Matt stuck on the M1 for 3 hours.
The V8 Petrol is not the one to buy. In Australia, the V8 Twin Turbo Diesel is the business. I've seen them with 600,000klms on the clock and still going strong.

I've seen the 5.7 with over 300k miles, so it's still reliable
It can do more than 1 or 2 mil miles... I had gone inside one a friend of my father had one... Then in my country the price got up of the land cruiser... So he sold it... He almost got the same price that he had bought it for!!

Harbir Brar But $85K is still too much, though. A more economical buy would be a Dodge Durango RT with a 5.7L HEMI engine. It may not be as luxurious as an MB GLS 450 but it would be $20K to $30K less than the Land Cruiser. Also, the HEMI engine seems simpler than the LC’s because the HEMI only has a SOHC while this one has DOHC. So, maybe the Dodge can last longer than the Toyota, even.
In Saudi we have a lot of engines a 4.0 L v6 petrol engine 285 HP a 4.6 L v8 petrol 301 HP a 4.5 turbo diesel v8 and a 5.7 v8 petrol engine which is the biggest engine .. for the full land cruiser but for the prado we have a 2.7 L v4 petrol 164 HP a 4.0 L v6 235HP a 2.4 L turbo diesel and a 2.8 L turbo diesel .. so we are the main market for the land cruiseres 🙂
Here in the US the Prado is only offered as a Lexus only with a 4.6L V8. We do have two versions of the Land Cruiser (Toyota and Lexus LX), but both come with the same 5.7L V8. For some reason the Lexus version gets an extra 2 hp and 2 lb ft of torque.

oh dear this comment section is too salty hahah
there's no denying about the LC's reliability and it's truly an iconic and legendary vehicle, however I wish Toyota made some efforts to put changes and updates for its interior. I mean if I really want to get an extreme off-roader or something to take on the outback, why would I pay for 80k+ for a new LC if I can clearly get a second-hand in good condition LC which is way cheaper and can probably outlived most cars SUVs trucks on the road?
Paolo Ariedo You people try to make the same argument. While it may be a ten year old design, if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it. Same with the gu patrol. Came out in 1997, went off sale in 2014 and 2016 in Australia. It’s a proven formula and those cars are the most common to see here all kitted out with off-road things.

@@saintbarnabasshackles2437 Yes, because it's so easy to convert 13mpg (US) to l/100km within seconds for it to stay relevant and not get lost in a video.
Let me show you how you can make it in seconds.
First you have to calculate how many km is 13 miles - 13*1,609=20,917 km
Then you convert one US gallon to litres - 1 US gal=3,785 l
When you have calculated it within a second (because it's so easy, you don't need a calculator), you can proceed with dividing 20,917 to 3,785 - 20,917/3,785=5,526.
Being such a bright mind as you are, you can now divide 100 with 5,526 - 100/5,526=18,096
And you have got yourself a result - 18,1 l/100km. It was so easy.
Also 235,21/mpg formula is so widely spreaded (it was a joke if you didn't understand).

That disappointment on his face throughout the whole video😂😂
They promote their wicked English rables
You car reviewers need to get off the "scratchy plastic" kick. It's used in a lot of cars there's nothing wrong with it.
Other than the fact that it can scratch easily
Screw scratchy plastic. I'm not about that life
Typical British reviewer
that make his rover rubbish look better
oi
Oi there mate, bit rude from you innit?
How much land rover pay for this video?😂
They didn’t pay anything. Mat watson is the only person that hasn’t been brainwashed by Scotty Kilmer. What did Mat say wrong in this video?
@@kristians2704 Didn't talk about the fact that one of the reasons the Land Cruiser is so expensive is because it is engineered to last 25 years, whereas the Range Rover is engineered to last 10 years at most.
@@roberthoward9500 the price shouldn’t be as much as a land rover then. 50k would be reasonable
@@roberthoward9500 its still waaay overpriced, like 20k overpriced
Nothing dumbass the land cruiser is and always will be an outdated, inefficient, boring looking, cheap interior having stupid suv that only ignorant boomers buy. Stay mad Toyota fan boy
Hey Matt if ur wandering why Land Cruiser doesn’t have the fancy electronic interior like such as Range Rover, X7, etc is because regular car manufacturers only expect their car to last 10-15 years while Toyota wants the Land Cruiser to last 20-25 years. So yeah u can still drive this bad boy with no problem in the years of 2040s 👍👍👍
Matt: The steering wheel never extends quite far enough. 6:06
Seat: Move me forward Matt. I've got lot more of leg room for you! 😒🥴
Speed Freak matt is a hater:(
I dont get it. Are you supposed to squash your knees just to use the steering wheel?
a c matt is a small guy compared to the people that drive this car and i don t get what you say be more precise:D
You sent me to an ad 😂
I thought he was normal sized, but if hes saying it soesnt extend very far compared to other trucks, that is a valid critique.

When's the drag race coming with this car?🤣
Jimny is better
It won't win
@@curleypubes3672 if u compare with g wagon this will win.
@@Maniacguy2777 are you serious?
Waiting for it 😂
I absolutely looove this car! This is a super durable car. Mat, i think you don't fully understand who this car is for or who would appreciate it. A person who would buy this would not buy an X7 and vice versa. I think some of your jabs at this car were just silly, its like you were reviewing it for your own personal taste... very bias.
I agree this car is super reliable, good resale value and in my country almost all rich people have this. I think matt make a big mistake when do this review because he didn't know the purpose of this car.
Alligator I actually laughed at the joke, “poor reliability” This is genuinely funny. I just have an awful sense of humour.
Just because it will be reliable doesn’t mean that it’s good. It’s terrible compared to the X7
You're obviously a Toyota fan boy who doesn't understand that "functionality" doesn't give Toyota an excuse to cheap out on interiors, you saw how stone age looking that interior was. Pretty much all new Toyotas are like this, not everyone is poor enough to keep the same car for like 30 years so "bulletproof" reliability is pretty much useless, oh and a cheaper land rover discovery is better off road ;-)
@@kristians2704 it doesn’t have useless features, it has only comfort and features that matters
Carwow, kindly do a review of the LX Lexus 570 , the land cruiser's cousin.
The land cruiser’s Premium Cousin ***
NABEEL ALI Essentially they’re the same
Michael Kasingye The Lexus would have more luxury stuff than the Landcruiser
My father have one since 2008 and Marshallah still in a great condition after those years, awesome car
Bro that is masha allah not marshallah
No its Martial law
The ultimate SUV. The special forces in the military use that car.
These things are all over Nairobi Kenya.Everyone wants one.
Me too
Leave it to every reviewer to leave out how reliable and how much value a Toyota/Lexus will hold no matter how many years past, to the point where they just say "consider" it as a purchase.
Every Kazakh's dream car. (Or LX 570 ofc)
Сәлем
HANDS DOWN KING OF THE ROAD WORLD WIDE.... 💪💪💪💪💪
is actually king of law quality cars
@@elvismegabrain752 that's why millionares in Australia, Africa, Middle East, and the UN use it as their primary care?
@@elvismegabrain752 get lost haters, lc 200 is always known as the king of desert
There is also a V8 diesel, good video, a bit dark and unsharp on the end. Its in general the best real off-roader money can buy .
I owned a 200 diesel. Incredibly reliable. Holds its value and a great car all round. Just bought a Gls 400d merc and it’s light years ahead.
That Land Cruiser will still be going after your GLS ends up in the scrap yard. The only Mercedes worth buying is the G Class.
@@DestroyerOfLiberals I’d have traded it before it goes to scrap. I also don’t care that the cruiser will outlast it. I prefer the merc
