- BUY, LEASE OR FINANCE A TOYOTA LAND CRUISER FROM OSV: bit.ly/3mmKD5J
The new Toyota Land Cruiser Diesel looks mighty, feels mighty, and might just be the best investment you make this year. It’s reliable, safe as houses, and boasts excellent off-road ability.
It’s a go-anywhere vehicle in the classic tradition, with a pedigree that can’t be argued with. However, Toyota has added more levels of luxury so that it’s not quite the robust, utilitarian 4×4 in the Land Rover Defender mould. It’s even plush on occasion indoors, while some of its equipment looks like it’s been taken from a limousine.
Don’t be fooled, though; it might be a bit posh, but it’s the one we’d choose for a wild adventure in the outback.

My dream car. Im 51 and this would do everything, go anywhere, and probably never break down. It would easily last me into retirement and beyond.
I’m 50 and just bought one. Now I just have to wait about 6 months for delivery 😩
@@oggyoggy1299 Have you taken delivery yet?
@@kw8757
No, still another couple of months it seems. Just spoke to the dealer a few days ago. He said if you order one now you have to wait 18-22 months!!!
....gets you going in Kensington or Kenya.....👍
Just make sure you get it properly wax oiled underneath. The top halves are mint, underneath rusted to bits.
Land Cruiser is not for those who will go shopping in supermarket with it on a daily basis. Being able to use it on highland roads in Iceland, this is still a true off roader
Valentino Valkaj thats the only downside if its your only car. Supermarket car parks plus parking anywhere would be an issue because of the size. I probably couldnt afford one of these anyway, so would more likely get a Subaru XV instead.
if you buy one of these, it may outlast you
Thank you for you introduce of my dream car
No problem 👍
Love this vehicle. A proper utility vehicle. Even if you don't go off road that much, Land Cruisers are reliable and tough. The new one looks like a welcome evolution rather than a rethink (I used to buy these for an organisation I worked for).
A great reliable car for a lot of uses. thanks for the comment.
Just wondering, what did your organisation do? If you don't want to tell that's fine. Just thought that it you bought these for your organisation, the job must be intense, but with the Landcrusier it makes it easier.
Awesome truck!
Even by now with this being 8 year's old...I would buy it in a heartbeat. Bulletproof reliability and I would choose it as a lifetime daily driver over any current EV garbage!😎
2018 prado in Aus has rear diff lock too
Kenya (That shout out is appreciated)
Impressive.
I subscribed just because you mentioned Kenya!
Do you need to use those head light beam benders with this when driving on the continent?
Hello
Can you make a full video of this car and the Land Cruiser Prado and the Lexus Variants? If possible it would be great to see Nissan Patrol and the Mitsubishi Pajero/Shogun The title says in-depth review but the video is only 7 mins long but you have other videos running for almost an hour.
I wish they just did a split tailgate like the 200 series.
no most people like me prefer this style-u can have a side table on the door while camping
@@goldenboyi1989
And in every other way it’s worse.
Drop the tailgate on a 200 series and it IS you table, with a roof over the top.
my aunt and uncle has a 2001 toyota land crusier van
I want to buy this for driving in central london and going on weekend trips around the UK and Europe. thoughts ?
is the third row seat can recline?
It is Very nice and my dream car. You have lucky chosen prado.
I dont think its a prado
@@ruffyistderhammer5860 it is a Prado. the land cruiser v8 has a split tail gate and well... a v8
Yeah you are right I was confused cause of different naming in Germany
@@stuff2review k
Nice review.
Glad you enjoyed it! Many thanks for watching 👍
Give me a head-up display, and the rest of the controls can be simple.
Reliable offroader
Verrry Niiice 😎
Many thanks, Borat!
Most of us buy the vehicle for off road, not shopping in shitty centres in the UK. Give me the side door any day
Good, now all I need is £60 K
In our country it costs around 176k$ after tax 🙂
Surely these off road capabilities are only fully realised when the appropriate tyres are fitted ?
That's right, sadly we didn't have time to change the tyres over for our review. no doubt the off road performance would be better.
Ive been on a UK website, and there are some very impressive AT tyres available for this car, and not expensive either, less than £180 ish per wheel.
The presenter claims there's a rear diff lock on this top of the range model. But the close up centre console shot reveals a blank button under the centre diff lock button. If this Prado indeed has a rear diff lock, then that's where the on/off button should be located. So, does the top Uk model have a rear diff lock? Or maybe it only has a rear LSD instead? In that case, of cause there's no need for an on/off button on the centre console.
lovice if this is the invincible model (top) there should indeed be a rear diff lock, but as you point out there is no button for it. It should also have sat Nav but there is no fin at the back in the exterior shots. I suspect this is an Icon with the off-road pack. Slight anomaly to this is wood trim on the wheel, which is an invincible feature, and there is a shot of a sat nav screen. I think there may be footage from different cars being used.
@@adamchamberlain82
Thank you for your detailed reply. As Prado is a global model that every country has its own specifications and trim levels, I wish car reviewers could be more careful of what they are shooting and talking about.
2018 in Aus has
I would prefer one with the manual transmission
It's fast enough for me. Most people want really fast cars which in my opinion ends up claiming their lives. I personally wouldn't want to race at a ridiculous speed only to end up as a corpse
Curtis Mendy This car is perfectly fast enough. A big comfortable cruiser, capable of anything and would feel safe in all weathers. Id just get better tyres. You can now get AT tyres that are quiet on tarmac now as well, the best of both worlds. No need for winter tyres if you do that.
This is not an SUV it’s a 4 x 4
Ant H
Ant H . Its not a 4x4 , its just a big car with AWD , haha
@@gfi64 No, it's one of the best 4X4s on the market.
@@humphreybrogart8392 No, it's an outdated, un practical, 4x4 with awd, as is not the case with other 4x4, it is still in my opinion, a SUV,,,, with 4x4 capabilities, as very few intitled princess's would ever take this model over more than a small creek or dune,,, haha
@@gfi64
How is it not a 4x4?
It has diff locks.

What a great family car. It feels comfortable and safe. The space is good, the power of 2.8d is fine for a real life city or motorway driving. I drive a 2018 model mostly in London and am thoroughly happy with the vehicle.
Glad you are enjoying your car like we enjoyed testing it.
what is it like in parking spaces in the super market ??
Why would you have a car like that in London ? Oh yes, big car, big ego maybe ? Nobody needs a car like that for city driving.
@@oddities-whatnot You should see London these days
Is driving in city expensive with this ?
Why do they continue with large rear swing door?
Spare tyre placement.
Why can't we get the v8 d :( . No doubt the EU screwing us over again, the 2.8 isn't even economical it does less mpg than my 6.5 v8 TD truck
It used to be available for the UK market not too long ago
Just don't get an accident in this car
why
I think you mean, you wouldnt want to be hit by one of these on the road.
That’s a PRADO, not a land cruiser
Land Cruiser 150 = Prado. It is in the Landcruiser family
Toyota calls it a land cruiser though. It comes with the same warranty and maintenance requirements as the land cruiser 200.
its in the land cruiser family. LC 150. Same thing.
Its a landcruiser 150 series dummy
You need some Toyota lessons mate or maybe little spanking.
SsangYong Rexton Ultimate is better
U mean worse with:
-quality
-comfort
-resale
-off road ability
U dreaming 😂🤣😂
In no possible way.
You're a very funny man 🤣🤣 I know someone who used to do the pre-delivery check on SsangYong and they had to close the doors gently on them otherwise the door card would fly off 🤣🤣🤣
