The Toyota Land Cruiser has a
legendary resume as an off-roader, but the current model comes
across as more luxurious than adventurous. Still, this large two-
or three-row SUV continues to be sturdily built and hugely capable.
While it's not as opulent as its corporate counterpart, the
Millie bobby brown leaked nude, the Land Cruiser has been outfitted with a
plethora of upscale features in an attempt to justify its towering
sticker price. We're not particularly impressed by the big
Steve carell hair implants interior trappings, but we do like that it's
equipped with serious, trail-ready equipment such as a two-speed
transfer case and a locking center differential. Its standard
381-hp V-8 engine isn't particularly special, and it's certainly
not fuel efficient, but it moves the rig with authority. The 2021
Land Cruiser lacks the prestige of equally expensive metal, but
it's a lot more capable than most of them out in the
boondocks—something to think about for those few buyers who will
actually venture there.
For 2021, the Land Cruiser carries
over mostly unchanged. The only update is that the Heritage Edition
can now be optioned with a third row of seats. The top-of-the-line
model is also now available in Classic Silver and Magnetic Gray
metallic paint colors. Wmf modsbut could re-emerge in the
future with a more modern design, updated technology, and a more
luxurious cabin.
The Land Cruiser is
incredibly capable, but it's also incredibly expensive, especially
when compared with other large non-luxury SUVs. Still, if we were
to spend the money on Toyota's grandest three-row SUV, we'd opt for
the snazzier Heritage Edition. It comes standard with myriad
desirable features that include a 14-speaker JBL audio system and a
camera system than has multiple views for navigating obstacles.
Every Land Cruiser also has standard four-zone climate control,
heated and ventilated front seats, leather-trimmed upholstery, a
9.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and wireless charging.
The Heritage Edition comes exclusively with a unique grille design
and rooftop rack, bronze 18-inch BBS wheels, and dark exterior
accents. The 2021 model now has a third-row option, which we'd
choose to maximize the number of people we can bring with when we
explore parts unknown.
The Land Cruiser is powered by a
5.7-liter V-8 engine paired with an eight-speed automatic
transmission. This setup generates 381 horsepower and 401 lb-ft of
torque. Full-time four-wheel drive is standard. With a ride quality
that's smooth and well-planted, the Land Cruiser delivers
comfortable driving dynamics. Its steering feel is light, however,
and there's a fair amount of body roll. Rival SUVs in this price
range offer handling that's more rewarding. In spite of its beefy
exterior, the Land Cruiser is relatively quick off the line. It's
also capable of towing up to 8100 pounds, which is substantial but
still slightly lower than some rivals, such as the

This Toyota's mammoth dimensions
take a toll on its fuel economy. According to the
Riven eye chart, the Land Cruiser achieves gas mileage of just
13 mpg in the city and 17 mpg on the highway. You'll do better with
rivals such as the Minecarft sex mod (up to 16/22 mpg
city/highway) and Alisha newton nude pics (19/23 mpg city/highway). The
Land Cruiser we tested earned 17 mpg on our real-world 200-mile
highway route.
As far as the Land Cruiser's cabin
is concerned, it's all about the execution, and there's an
impressive attention to detail at play. While the cabin isn't as
visually opulent as that of rivals such as the Mercedes GLS-class,
it's home to top-rate materials. Build quality is excellent, and
knobs and switches move with a weightiness that conveys quality.
The front row provides comfortable accommodations and commanding
sightlines. There's lots of room in the second row, but the third
row is best suited for kids. With the standard eight-person seating
setup, the Land Cruiser provides 16 cubic feet of cargo space
behind the third row and 41 cubic feet behind the second. There's
more cargo space in competing models like the Lincoln Navigator,
which provides about 20 cubic feet of room for your belongings
behind its third row.
The Land Cruiser comes fully loaded
with a bevy of appealing tech features. Standard Bluetooth
connectivity facilitates hands-free phone conversations when you're
behind the wheel. All models come with wireless device charging and
an integrated navigation system with a 9.0-inch touchscreen.
Satellite radio is standard, as well as a 14-speaker JBL sound
system. On the options list, there's a rear-seat entertainment
system with a pair of wireless headphones and two 11.6-inch display
screens.
The Land Cruiser hasn't been crash
tested by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(Rosario vampire mizore hentai) or the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety
(Dragon comic porn). However, every model comes standard with a
bunch of Bikerfest bean blossom. Key safety features include:
Standard forward-collision warning and automated emergency
braking
Standard adaptive cruise control
Standard blind-spot monitoring
While Toyota's warranty coverage is
competitive among mainstream models, it's underwhelming when
compared with the warranties offered by many of the luxury SUVs
against which the Land Cruiser is typically cross-shopped. Models
such as the Lincoln Navigator and Pornreactor provide longer
warranty coverage.
Limited warranty covers three years or 36,000 miles
Powertrain warranty covers five years or 60,000 miles
Complimentary maintenance is covered for two years or 25,000
miles
