2024 Toyota Land Cruiser debuts with retro looks
 [AutoBlog] SALT LAKE CITY, Utah — The 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser is officially here, and its arrival marks the return of Toyota’s legendary Land Cruiser nameplate after it took a few years off. If you were thinking this new Land Cruiser would just be a slight revision on the last one, then think again. The 2024 model is smaller, cheaper, hybrid-only and way more purposeful looking.Its design is a massive departure from the last Land Cruiser and instead adopts elements from its earlier history. The squared-off body and upright stance is a timeless off-roader look, and we think it suits the new Land Cruiser quite well. Toyota made the new model 4.4 inches narrower and 1.2 inches shorter overall to improve its nimbleness off-road, and it looks dramatically smaller in person. Interestingly, there are two headlight designs, with one being a rectangular look reminiscent of the FJ62. Meanwhile, the "1958" (just below) and "First Edition" trims get round headlights. Isn't that a Rover Defender in the graphic? Well, you're right! I guess it is. Posted by: Besoeker 2023-08-02 |
