Bold looks and familiar stance
The 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser has returned with a design that honors its rugged legacy while blending in modern flair. The boxy silhouette is back with a wide heritage grille, squared LED headlights, and chunky wheel arches, making it stand out both on city streets and wild trails. The SUV’s body is now a touch shorter and more agile, measuring around 196 inches long and 78 inches wide, with a 76-inch height and 8.7 inches of ground clearance. This new stance not only gives the Land Cruiser solid presence but also helps maneuver through tight off-road spots and urban parking lots.
Hybrid powertrain for serious muscle
Under the hood, the 2025 Land Cruiser ditches the old V8 for an i-FORCE MAX turbocharged 2.4-liter 4-cylinder hybrid. This system puts out a combined 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque by pairing the gas engine with an electric motor and a 0.9-kWh battery. The hybrid delivers smooth power through an 8-speed automatic and comes with full-time 4WD, plus locking center and rear differentials for top-level off-road capability. Toyota rates the new Land Cruiser at 23 mpg combined, which means more range and fewer fuel stops than before. It can tow up to 6,000 pounds, giving it plenty of muscle for trailers, boats, or serious adventure gear.

New driver aids like blind spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert help in both city traffic and tricky trails.
