I have watched a lot of my favourite you tuber's views of the Land Cruiser including Motormouth twice, such a polished production and so informative. Well I was wondering how it felt on the highway and Andrea's smile says all I needed to put the LCLC at the top of my list. I also really appreciated Zack's thoughts on towing and this new engine. We will be replacing a GX and fuel economy is important so the new GX will not be in the running, at least not until the hybrid comes out in the Lexus. Great video!

I like the round lights but could live with either. Glad to see that body style revived....its a good look.

Agree on the rectangular headlights.

I love the rectangle lights. Great view. As always I love your sense of humor intertwined with data and relevant information. I am sold on GX550. Can’t wait to see if they will add a hybrid to it soon.

Great review guys :) I can't wait to see the reviews of the 1GD-FTV powered one. That's going to be the overland champ.

Thanks for pointing out the subtle differences between the different versions.

You two are much more relaxed when you're driving in the California sun!

The look on his face and holding on to the oh shit handle on the road was priceless!!

Zack and Andrea, you all should get one of these! It is such a full circle truck!

Thank you guys for showing what it's like ON ROAD, where most folks(like me) will drive 99% of the time. Great review as always!

Thanks for the thorough review. Our house likes the rectangular headlights and LC trim with Premium package. And yes over the new 4runner. Good to hear the LC behaves well on road. We also like the look of the LC over the Lexus GX. Is the Lexus GX that much better, and in what areas, than the LC to justify the significant difference in fuel economy?

I really like new designs from Toyota but the prices are getting out of reach for most people. I like the round headlamps!

Great review. They will sell out fast. They come a long way and my dad had a imported 1978 2 door cruiser. I believe Andrea is a great driver.

Great view - thanks folks. Round headlamps is the way.

That new Landcruiser is going to look AMAZING in my local grocery store parking lot!!

Great on road review ! , would you buy used Rivian over lc or gx550

Built to last. I like it.

I cannot wait for the crown signia video! I would have a tough time leaving my perfect 2019 prius with its 55mpg, reasonably roomy interior, and the new tires I just put on it, but that wagon just looks great!

Round headlights any day. And I also love the cloth seats.

Great video. Agree with Zack about the headlights. Also, your 1 and 2 competitors, Bronco and Wrangler, do the retro-round headlights much better. Also, both come with manuals.

Looks nice.

Great review! Having a hard time deciding if the Hybrid powertrain is worth the wait or not for the Tacoma

That's thing so good

Rectangular headlight FTW!

HE says " Get the Lexus GX" but the gas mileage isn't even close. GX from reports is getting 16mpg combined, and the Landcruiser is getting around 23-25 hard to beat. But if you're buying these vehicles maybe gas price isn't a concern...

Great to see Land Cruiser is back to Canada. The waiting list will be very long for sure. But it certainly worth the wait instead of importing one from Japan or USA.

WOW!! $69,000 for the base Land Cruiser in Canada😭. Then $90,000 for the First Edition in CAD. The US not much better $75,000 🥴 Those are some high prices !! Poor Zach holding on for dear life lol. Another informative and great review 👍👍

So much for the new affordable Land Cruiser

I am with Zack. Landcruiser edition. However, GX has some good features in the base trim plus the Lexus badge (if that means anything). Plus GX probably will have better dealership experience. For Landcruiser Fuel economy will be better, I guess!

Great to see your perspe tive on the LC, a bit confused about recommending premium fuel but regular ok. It is tne same engine in the Taco and the Runner do they also 'recommend ' premium fuel? Really like the LC LC if gets better fuel economy than the Lexus, and I suspect it will be more comfortable than the Runner. Sweet spot, time to save up😊

I agree with Andrea. I prefer her round headlights choice 😜

what's different in-between model land cruiser 250 vs 4runner ?

For this price go with the GX if you can find one without mark up imho.

Zack I like the Land Cruiser with the square headlights as well. Go big or go home! For the extra money the Lexus I would be a sweet ride !

The water bottles enjoyed the twisty roads from what I can tell too 😂

What an awesome car..waiting for the baby Land Cruiser, I think it is expected next year.

Rectangular headlights for me. Couldn't you have brought out the vacuum for those floor mats! :)

Great MPG for that power! Hopefully, the new 4runner will have the same mpg.

Agreed-this Land Cruiser is too expensive and not distinctive enough from the 4Runner; the Land Cruised should have been been built and priced more like a updated FJ Cruiser w/ 4 doors and more off-road oriented features (huge wide tires; winch package, etc).

@JAlexanderCurtis

Ай бұрын

New 4Runners will be more expensive count on it. Tacomas got a 10-15% price hike depending on trim this year, and they are doing the same with 4Runner guaranteed. That is why they didn't release pricing. If they were keeping it the same they would have announced it with the car. They want to significantly increase the cost, so they hold back pricing so that they get all the hype of the new release and excitement without discussions of the price overshadowing it.

Another channel said you can change the lights out. You only have to change the lower plastic piece under the lights. .

Round headlights for me.

Great review, sadly to expensive! I’m sure high prices are the norm, let’s see how the market goes??

I love the retro style and look of the round headlamps. And the all-cloth interior on the base 1958 trim level has a retro look to it. However, I do agree with you that it also looks downmarket, especially for the high price.

I am with Andrea, round ones!

Round headlights hands down

Thanks, another good video. Am I the one think that this car has impression of Land Rover or G class at some point? I mean in design

Love your reviews! I prefer the rectangular headlights. Since you are familiar with cars on both sides of the border, do you know the answer regarding colours? Colours are the same with the exception of the Meteor Shower/Brown Sugar Metallic. Meteor Shower is going to be available only in US and Brown Sugar Metallic in Canada. I am being told in Ottawa that they are both the same colour, just different names being used, however looking at the prototypes on dealers’ sites in both US and Canada, Meteor Shower looks more silver and Brown Sugar Metallic looks like the colour used on Toyota Corollas and popular with the elderly. Do you know the answer? Please?

I would go with the rectangular headlights.

TEAM ROUND HEADLAMPS!

If you don't want the off-road capability, is this not the same powertrain and size of the Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid Max?

Would love to see a comparison between new 4runner, Land Cruiser and GX down the road.

Great video that I've been looking forward to - for MONTHS!! Question about the Land Cruiser Trim. According to the Toyota Canada website, it comes standard with the moonroof, without needing to get the Premium Package. Is it possible that's another Canada vs US spec difference?

There are only a few features I would miss, the JBL sound system, driver seat memory (if I was sharing the vehicle all the time) and possibly the power passenger seat but I could easily go without. You'll also get better fuel economy if you go with the 18" wheels. We were riding on the 20" wheels in our review and I was really impressed with its handling.

Watch the GX review on the channel.

The instant I saw this I wanted the rectangular, round looks odd to me because I like angular modern design. I am sure there’s a big market for retro round, but I am rectangular modern. However, the GX Overland I would take over it all in a heartbeat, and yes the price of either makes me skip a few….

Funny how Zack seems to be holding the entrybar handle and the armrest for dear life.

Round headlamps!

Round or rectangle lights..depends on the colour of the truck. Makes a big difference on the look.

Looking forward to the "Hopper." My interest is closer to a small Jeep, not quite so big as a Land Cruiser. Round headlights.

wooww crazy price , i will keep my 4 runner 2016 limited :)

Or, Andrea, regarding your request there near the end, another way to put it.... a round headlight option on the middle trim! Edit: to answer Zack's question about the headlights, I'm with Andrea on this one. If they're smart, they'll have a round light dealer retrofit install option for the middle trim for about $500... (like Zack said, probably different at least superficial bumper / grille assembly).

Round headlights look much better.

Do you get to drive that blue Land Cruiser after it was fixed or before the guy’s at Throttle House tried (and almost succeeded) to destroy it?

Rectangle headlights for me. But I would really like to stretch myself for GX.

My 2020 Ram has the electric boost that fills in down low and between shifts with 130 or so HP. It's awesome. Pulls down low like a tractor. Using electricity to boost power where it can help the gas engine is very cool and it works. Kinda simple and obvious when you think about it. My favorite application is sports cars where the rear wheels are gas and the front are electric. And then you can drive it in pure electric and save gas when you want.

The motor in my Volvo plug-in has 143 hp, total with the engine is 455 hp. That 143 is misleading because there’s no waiting for the turbo to spin up or the RPM to go up, the power is there “right now.” And the electric motor by itself will power the car up to 87 miles an hour. With a 41 mile battery, 70% of my travels are powered by the battery.

To add confusion, there are two Sequoia trim levels under US$70k, which has 30% more power in its V6 hybrid. Might be too big for some city-dwellers, but they don't need an adventure vehicle anyway.

That Land cruiser looks Giant and awesome. Think Zack got scared because it's so high 🎉

Go to the configuration.. it’s a 69k vehicle the way most would want it spec’d. Expensive, but in range with the world today if you’ve been car shopping… The upper trims of the new 4Runner will probably cross 60k and end up around 62k.

Very nice vehicle, it’s huge though. The new 4Runner is my preference.

i feel like most people just want tough looking car/truck without all the off roading stuff. i bet if they made a car that looks as tough as land cruiser but only 2 wheel drive and normal hybrid with 40mph will sell like crazy

I have to say something.. I am about 6' 3", so I sit up a bit higher in the cabin... and I like to look out of the entire front windshield ... I don't like it when something blocks for view.. But they really need to get rid of - or make that large black area at the top middle of windshield (above the rearview mirror) - MUCH smaller .. see 14:40. That thing is waaayyy to big and blocks way too much of the driver's and passengers front windshield visibility.. You'd be surprised at how much you need to see out of that top area of the windshield for safe driving or just to look out of the windshield.
