2024 Toyota Land Cruiser Review // Idiot Proof
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser in ‘Land Cruiser’ trim ($61,950 starting in the US, $77,290 starting in Canada) is brand new and now comes standard with a hybrid four-cylinder turbo i-FORCE MAX engine. It’s good for 326 horsepower and 465 lb ft of torque, and comes with many off road goodies like a locking differential, detachable sway bars, and a 2400 watt outlet in the trunk. But where exactly does the Land Cruiser fit into Toyota’s lineup among the 4Runner and the Lexus GX? And does this new hybrid Land Cruiser live up to its reputation of reliability and capability? Thomas and James head to the Algodones Dunes to find out. We hope you enjoy the episode! And then subscribe, silly.

This is hands-down better than any advertising that Toyota could produce on their own. Not only is the thumbnail shot of this thing airborne dope as fuck, but the fact that it still performed fine after being damaged was a huge boon to the whole "it gets you home" narrative.

It would be very inspiring, even if you were standing in an alley by a dumpster star staring at a cat. Another banger of a review 🤌

The aftermarket for these things will be awesome. To be completely stock really shows how great this is and the LX. Handled that jump like a champion, got out of a desert with a busted radiator and with less coolant in the heat. It’s a win. We’ve seen other trucks do smaller jumps and blow air bags.

I have a 2006 Lexus GX470. I have taken it overlanding and hit the cracked plate a tree stumps. Rock crawling with better clearance than the 4runner. I have pulled huge trees when mt tractor wouldn't start. And went through 16" of heavy snow from a Noreastern with no trouble . I made a bed for the back . Aside from the 15 miles per gallon, i love it! I got it in 2020 for $10,500 with 140k miles no rust from the south. I had the maintenance timing belt and water pump changed for $2000. I never want to sell it.
The way they both just moved straight to awkward understatement after the impact 😂 brilliant work guys.

Informative and entertaining. It also helped me decide on the GX 550 for my wife when the time comes to switch out of her RX 350. Thanks Guys, much appreciated. I will be looking for more real reviews from you.
This is the quintessential Land Cruiser review. Kudos to you guys, I never watch reviews this long this was so well done.

They tried to reassure people that they'll reuse some of the patch for the park while relocating the dirt "somewhere where it'll feel at home", but we all know it's BS! In the end, we all know the BIG PARKS will win, with their army of soccer mommys behind them so hurry up to visit it, at least it will live on in our memories.

If I watch throttle house on my phone or laptop the entertainment value doesn't improve much if I switch to viewing their content in my dedicated home theater. On the other hand from the first Hagerty episode I watched in my dedicated home theater I was never able to go back to my laptop or my phone to view content from that channel. It is head and shoulders above everyone else in terms of quality.
It’s so nice to see a “couple” being able to also work together.

It was so endearing to see the crew in the end - Throttle House is growing with each new video and it shows
I've been a Toyota guy for decades, and it will soon be time to upgrade from my 20-year-old 4Runner Sport (4.7-liter V8). I am strongly leaning toward a 2025 4Runner Platinum, but I'll consider a Land Cruiser. I may even go insane and look at a Rav4 as well. I recently bought a new Rav4 hybrid for my son (who just got his doctorate), and he loves it: 41 miles per gallon, 4-wheel-drive, Toyota Safety Sense, etc.
This may be my favorite car related video and definitely Throttle House's best. Toyota should be patting themselves on the back for allowing these two to borrow and review their car. I will be looking into purchasing a Land Cruiser myself. Thomas and James, your writing, improv, and story telling are amazing. Amazing job.

Such an amazing review! Love it. I’ve been debating this or a BMW… I was hesitant of the hybrid, but if you can do that and it holds up…. I want a Land Cruiser now.
Getting serious Top Gear adventure vibes with production quality this good. I'm not a Land Cruiser target audience but loved the video. Keep it up!
I love that my new favourite automotive magazine show is made in Canada. You guys remind me of what i loved about Top Gear (before it was all just huge road trips), and the grand tour. You review vehicles in a entertaining yet informative way. which in my opinion TG had lost (the cars became secondary to the entertainment), and now with GT basically being what TG had become before the loss of Clarkson and co. It is nice to find automotive journalists that can review vehicle in a fun and entertaining way, and still be informative. Keep up the good work guys love your content.
This is the best Toyota ad I've ever seen. If it had a skid plate it would've survived rather unscathed. I love the new Land Cruiser- they nailed it and you guys did too with the review.

Actually the radiator was damaged and even the skid plate would not change anything as it is way lower to protect oil pan only. The hit was to high hitting bumper and the radiator. Even with skid plates at that speed the the plate would be crushed together with oil pan. Those skid plates are fine at crawling over the stones and hard surfaces...but at 30mph have their limitations of protection.

@@The_Touring_Jedi I see- not a big off-road guy so thanks for the clarification. Still impressive to see the thing drive out of the dunes with a coolant leak and _only_ a coolant leak after that hit! Suspension didn't seem broken, just nicely broken-in and ready for more lmao
I almost felt like I was watching the old Top Gear. You guys are great!

you guys are the absotute best in business right now. when we think we've seen the best video, you come up with a new one. amazing.
As many have said you guys are planting yourselves up there with the greats in the car community like Top Gear. Keep it up!!
It is a pleasure to have you in Costa Rica 🇨🇷. Hope to have you back soon
There will NEVAH be a time when I don't believe that you have the best production going. That ending with the 'Team' was epic! Another great adventure! Thank you for sharing it with us... Oh, and NO scorpions were harmed in the filming of this video!
The look on James' face after that jump 😮 man, if this doesn't make you wanna buy a Toyota LC idk what will
I loved the end and giving the crew some props.
OMG what camera/lens combo did you use to film this? Cinematic AF, love it. Wonderful work 👏👏👏
Congratulations to the entire team! I’ve been watching from the beginning. It’s been so enjoyable to watch the progression, the creativity, and the quality of your channel. Stay humble. Stay hungry. Huge gratitude and respect for Throttle House!
The dynamic of these two and the amazing quality of the editorial team has made this a channel that will keep us coming back for years to come. Loving the new addition of these throttle house adventures. They are a great addition to the regular car reviews.
Best and more honest Land Cruiser 2024 video review I have ever seen.
Compliments to the editor for that intro. God damn that was beautiful
You're bro's..... That's how good friends and coworkers do things. Keep up the great work!
This is the type of content we love. Men love cars.
Good review. Been watching these 2 for a good while but for the first time I walked away from my phone while listening and closed my eyes for a second and saw Brian and Stewie talking about a Land Cruiser. Now can't stop laughing. Love you guys 😊
Such a great video, love the chemistry between Thomas and James - even when they cause pure terror and annoyance in the other 😂
James looks so mad 29:26

Here me out guys, these two are the new gen Top Gear without a doubt, another video beautifully made❤
Take your "new" Land Cruiser and go on an Adventure to Perú with the crew! This was a fun review. Thank you for sharing.
Facial expressions upon landing were priceless. Well done sirs.
I love how they mowed over the bumps and then proceeded to act like nothing happened! Brilliant!
