Do they still make Toyota Land Cruisers?
Yes. Toyota continues to manufacture Land Cruisers for many markets around the world, though availability varies by region. The lineup today centers on the 300-series flagship, while rugged, utilitarian variants such as the 70 Series remain in production for select markets. In the United States, the Land Cruiser badge has not been offered in recent years, with buyers turning to related models like the Lexus LX and the Toyota Sequoia for similar capability.
Global lineup today
The Land Cruiser family is commonly deployed across three main variants in many markets, each serving different needs from luxury comfort to hardcore off-road work.
- Land Cruiser 300 Series — the current flagship full-size SUV, built for global markets with strong off-road capability and modern features.
- Land Cruiser Prado — a smaller, lighter sibling used in many regions as a balance of on-road comfort and off-road ability; in several markets it is marketed as Land Cruiser Prado rather than simply Land Cruiser.
- Land Cruiser 70 Series — the enduring, utilitarian variant kept in production for certain markets (notably where rugged, durable work vehicles are in demand).
Together, these variants keep the Land Cruiser name alive worldwide, balancing luxury, durability and off-road prowess to meet varied customer needs.
Regional availability and the U.S. market
The availability and naming of Land Cruiser variants shift by region, reflecting local demand and regulatory settings. The following patterns are commonly seen across markets where the name persists:
- Global Land Cruiser 300 Series — broadly sold in Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Oceania, and other regions as the flagship Land Cruiser.
- Prado family — marketed as Land Cruiser Prado in several markets; Prado variants share a platform with Land Cruiser but carry different branding.
- Land Cruiser 70 Series — continues in production for specific markets that require rugged, straightforward 4x4s (often for fleets and rural use).
In the United States, the Land Cruiser badge has not been part of the current showroom lineup in recent years. Instead, buyers looking for similar capability typically turn to the Lexus LX or the Toyota Sequoia, which offer comparable off-road ability and passenger space within distinct model lines.
The U.S. perspective
For U.S. customers, the absence of a contemporary Land Cruiser has been notable for off-road enthusiasts. Toyota has leaned on the Lexus LX and Sequoia to deliver large, capable SUVs within separate branding. Prospective buyers should check with local dealers for current availability, regional imports, and any limited-run options that may appear.
What to expect going forward
Toyota has signaled a continued commitment to the Land Cruiser name where demand remains strong. Expect ongoing updates to the 300-series platform, continued availability of the 70-series in dedicated markets, and ongoing integration with the broader Toyota and Lexus off-road lineup to preserve the flagship's legacy while meeting modern efficiency and safety standards.
Summary
The Toyota Land Cruiser line remains active globally, spanning the 300 Series flagship, the Prado-based models, and the 70 Series for rugged markets. Availability varies by region, with the United States not currently offering a new Land Cruiser in recent years, while related brands like the Lexus LX and Toyota Sequoia fill the gap for US buyers seeking similar capability. For international markets, the Land Cruiser continues to symbolize durability, off-road prowess, and enduring value.
