Summary:

Excellent off-road capability, legendary quality and durability.
By Mitch McCullough, Editor-in-Chief, NewCarTestDrive.com

Few sport-utilities offer more off-road capability and none offer higher all-around quality than the Toyota Land Cruiser. On the downside, it ranks at the top in terms of price and at the bottom in terms of cargo space.

Overall, the Land Cruiser is one of the most desirable vehicles in its class. So, while you may pay a premium price, you'll get a premium vehicle.

Overview:

Toyota Land Cruiser combines excellent off-road capability, luxurious appointments, refinement and quality.

Extensively redesigned for 1998, the Land Cruiser is propelled by the same 4.7-liter V8 engine that drives the Lexus LX 470. This twin-cam V8 replaced the Land Cruiser's old inline-6. The V8 and extensive chassis revisions makes the current Land Cruiser a much stronger performer both on the street and in tough terrain than the pre-1998 models.

For 2000, Toyota added electronic brake force distribution, active traction control and vehicle skid control as standard equipment. These sophisticated active safety measures make the Land Cruiser easier to control in emergency maneuvers; traction control also enhances its off-road capability.
