There are few vehicles as beloved as the Toyota Land Cruiser. Over the years, the Toyota SUV has gone from the bare-bones FJ40 to a luxurious Range Rover rival. But it hasn’t lost its ability to overland, off-road, and just keep on trudging. And yet, there are rumors that the next-gen model may not even …

A family vacation is a time for relaxation, exploration, and new experiences.

But just like in day-to-day scenarios, an SUV isn’t always the best choice. Volkswagen wouldn’t …

It’s hard to find an SUV that has a reputation like the Toyota Land Cruiser. It can off-road like the 4Runner, with luxury like a Range Rover—only it’s way more reliable.

Toyota makes two of the most reliable off-road SUVs available today, the 4Runner and Land Cruiser. Both offer four-wheel drive, three rows, and a strong defense against depreciation. But the 4Runner sells in massive numbers, while the Land Cruiser is barely a blip. That’s why the next-gen hybrid model might not make it to the …

Although it doesn’t sell in massive numbers, the Toyota Land Cruiser is an amazingly reliable and well-regarded SUV.
