I still think it’s a bit odd that it doesn’t tow more. It weighs a lot less and is very close to the GX in terms of hp and torque. My only thought is that it has to do with the LC figures being combined rather than just engine
hey man i just wanna say that i love your reviews especially the day in the life type videos as for me the interior and the practicality matters more than how many horsepower or what engine my Bentley has great content man keep it up
For MY 2025 or later, Toyota could give the Land Cruiser 250 a 3-row extended wheelbase variant as well as the following trims for both in place of the 1958 and LC ones being used by the SWB LC250 for the 2024 MY: * SR5 * Heritage (replaces both 1958 and LC combined) * TRD Pro * Trailhunter * GR That will mean most of the trims for the larger albeit unnecessary Sequoia including the Capstone trim will be dropped with the exception of the Premium and TRD Pro trims.
I wish this had the V6 like the GX. Also I prefer this interior dash over the GX. I can't stand when everything is controlled from a touch screen. If the touch screen breaks in a few years you can't use the heating or A/C anymore.
@@MilesPerHrfantastic! - but I also wonder, in that case, what will be the main difference 1958 and Land Cruiser trim. Do we know when it will begin offered?
I can’t find any options online for the premium on the 1958 option. This would essentially be the base land cruiser trim but with round headlights and no roof rack
@@sterner57 that’s why I was so confused Cause they don’t offer 1958 with premium package right now but if they do - that would be the best way to go with LC

7.9 0-60? thats gotta be extremely off. the stock 2.4 liter non hybrid tacoma does 0-60 in 7.3. someone needs to do an accurate test of its 0-60 or else this whole hybrid motor doesnt make sense.
@@ryannajam8757 who said anything about naturally aspirated? i said non hybrid new 2.4L tacoma did it in 7.3 seconds. To see this type in ACCELER8 and he did a 0-60 in the new tacoma “non hybrid” and it did it in 7.3 seconds. now maybe this was downhill or maybe the device he used wasnt working properly but id expect a much better time with all the torque that the hybrid motor adds
@@mikeslifeandfitness still this LC prado is heavier plus it makes about 350ish HP. So thats alright considering the weight. Plus a land cruiser isnt meant for going fast. It has pretty reasonable performance
This off road trails is a complete joke, even my old 3.8 Pajero can do it. Why don't manufacturer take risk when asking journalist to test their car for off-roading ?....
@TNTahir because its the actual successor of the LC200. This new one with the hybrid doesn't look like a Land Cruiser, it looks like a Prado. LC300 looks like the LC200 but upgraded
@TNTahirthe one u see in the video is a Land cruiser prado succesor to the 150 series LC prado. The 300 series is the actual big daddy LC the succesor to the 200 series LC
@@JStryker7 Still, calling this a Land Cruiser is grossly misleading, omitting the "Prado" part automatically suggests that it is not the smaller version, hence not the car shown in the video.
@@TheMonsterOfTheDeep not really. The 250 and 300 are incredibly similar underneath. Unlike many past Prados, the new 250 shares a chassis with the 300 that is only slightly modified
You have to do a day in the life with this one, its a must! 🙏🙏🙏
Yep, as soon as it's in the press fleet!
Looks fun to drive! 😎

Thermals with hybrid battery I assume
The different powertrain (trans + engine) also has a different rear differential size (smaller ~8.3" vs ~9.3"+ on the GX)

Glad you like them!
Miles is this more comfortable than something like a defender ?
The issue for the 1958 land cruisers is that ones that are for sale in my area are marked up to the price of the the Land Cruiser trim

Does it have paeking sensors?
When you are doing the interior review there is a Tacoma trd pro out the front window. What color is that? It looks red from the video.
Is this a Prado or just a land cruiser?
What's more comfortable on road defender or Landcruiser 250?
We're riding with ya.

Does does it feel compared to gx550?
dealership just shut the door with 10k markup
the great car ❤
Long live Land Cruiser Meadow.
Motor???
Will a 35" tire fit underneath
Not underneath. But might fit above the Land Cruiser.
Where are you off-roading ?
Will you do a video with what it’s like living with a c8 corvette please.
Well i think the lexus looks better but I really like nostalgic design of the land cruiser
Yea Lexus I better
*is*
I totally disagree, I like Land Cruiser much better. Waiting Land Cruiser first edition in trail dust to arrive next month.
Toyota SUV is a land cruiser so you can say this is also land cruiser
Is GX550 more quitter inside?
Yes, it's the same vehicle as this but more luxury suspensions, technologies and more.
I want one
Will Toyota actually offer 1958 with premium package?
yes

Oh for sure, 1958 with premium package is 100% the way to go … if it’s offered.
Wait! Is this the exact same mid-level Land Cruiser that Doug DeMuro just reviewed?
Yea, we were all at the same event
@@MilesPerHr Nice!
WAY better than the 4Runner.
lol it's literally the same thing
@@JokerG16 Yet not. There's no non-hybrid Land Cruiser and it gets better MPGs, from what I can tell. Just looks better, too..
400 + torque but still 7. 6 sec for 60, its because that car is so heavy.... thats acceptable anyway
I wish they would stop hiding the exhaust
ARE YU RIGHT TO COMPARE THIS LANDCRUISER PRADO TO THE 200?...I THINK NOT......THERES ALSO AN OLDER PRADO MODEL THAT HAD 201 HP WITH THE HILUX ENGINE

Land cruiser is much better
That's not a land cruiser it like calling the blazer a Tahoe

Theres no way a N/A 2.4 tacoma does 0-60 in 7.9 seconds plus this LC prado id heavier. The 2.8l diesel does in 10 seconds

The real land cruiser is lc 300
Not what Toyota says since its inception. Lol
No, it's the LC 200.
I'd like to see some more mature colors on the Land Cruiser like White or Black. These silly school girl colors are not flattering on a high end SUV.
First edition is being sold in 75% black and silver for people like you

Land cruiser PRADO
КУКУРУЗЕР тупа нада!)
I prefer the 120 series V6 more than this …
Thank God we don't have that, we have the LC300, which is the actual real Land Cruiser
We have a Trans Land Cruiser.

@@thisisatestoftheemer i forgot about that LOL. yeah ur right, but im talking about the LC series
Nahhhh who copied who? Lexus or Toyota?
hi miles
Hey!
cool looking vehicle but it just isnt deserving of the land cruiser name
*Yoda voice* it will be.... it will be
Good thing ksl4044 is the deciding factor on what a Land Cruiser is. 😮💨
Купить ту машину за бешенные бабки и поехать убивать по оврагам 😂😂😂Что так бывает ???
It's not a land cruiser. It's land cruiser prado or lexus gx. New land cruiser on America market is a lexus lx.
It is a Land Cruiser. This one is closer to the 300 than before. Even so, a Prado is still a Land Cruiser

Hey guys I think what Toyota calls a Land Cruiser, is a Land Cruiser.
8s 0-60 in today’s day and age is unacceptable regardless its body on frame or heavy duty etc
This so called new Land Cruiser is a complete and utter JOKE !! Well done video though.
Still land cruiser Lc 300 2024 better than this toy
Задняя ходовка ужасна )) ещё не доработана
First🎉🎉❤
So ?
☝️
Offroad car with road tire yeah sure
Did you see Throttle House's video? They made it pretty far with an all-season tire
I mean they break the car to 🤣 in my head a iconic offroad suv need all terrain tire
4RUNNER still better than
Hybrid = instantly off my list
Lol
The holy trinity is hybrid
Everything is literally going to hybrids
Hybrid better than electric
