The 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser comes with a 3 yr./ 36000 mi. basic warranty, a 2 yr./ unlimited mi. roadside warranty, and a 5 yr./ 60000 mi. powertrain warranty.Heritage Edition now offers optional third-row seating.

Pros
Very capable off-road
Comfortable ride for a large truck-based SUV
Commanding view of the road ahead

Cons
Third-row seats are cramped and impinge on cargo space
Touchy brake pedal makes it hard to stop smoothly
Poor fuel economy, even by large SUV standards
Limited smartphone connectivity

The 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser is a full-time four-wheel-drive icon with a handful of luxury touches.

Pros
Exceptional utility
It’s an icon
Strong V-8
Full-time four-wheel drive
We’d love to have one

Cons
Atrocious gas mileage
Not as comfortable…
…or as luxurious as rivals
Too expensive

For 2021, the Land Cruiser carries over mostly unchanged. The only update is that the Heritage Edition can now be optioned with a third row of seats. The top-of-the-line model is also now available in Classic Silver and Magnetic Gray metallic paint colors.

Pros
Proven off-road capability,
strong-enough V-8 powertrain,
loaded with standard luxury features.

Cons
Fuel efficiency is an afterthought,
less prestigious than luxury-brand peers,
cabin quality doesn't match its price point.

Pros
Entertaining to drive,
ride is terrific regardless of wheel size,
palatial interior with plenty of tech.

Cons
Acceleration lags at city speeds,
some practicality sacrificed for style,
lower touchscreen controls are distracting.

By:

Pros
Spacious, high-end interior
Powerful engine lineup
Balanced ride and handling
Mostly intuitive tech features

Cons
Poor fuel economy
High starting price
