How many models of Toyota Land Cruisers are there?

There are three current Toyota Land Cruiser models marketed worldwide: the full-size Land Cruiser LC300, the rugged Land Cruiser 70 Series, and the smaller Prado. Availability varies by market and region.


Across markets, Toyota groups the lineup into three main model families. The following sections break down each one with its typical role and scope.


Current Land Cruiser lineup


Full-size Land Cruiser LC300


The LC300 is Toyota's flagship Land Cruiser, representing the latest full-size generation and replacing older LC200 offerings in most markets.


Key attributes of the LC300 include the following:



  • Flagship, full-size, body-on-frame SUV within the Land Cruiser family

  • Introduced in 2021–2022, depending on market, as the current generation

  • Built on Toyota’s TNGA-F platform with V6 powertrain options (petrol and diesel vary by region)

  • Typically available with multiple seating configurations (commonly 5–7 or more seats, depending on trim)

  • Widely sold across major regions (North America, Europe, Middle East, Asia, Africa), with regional variations


The LC300 is the contemporary benchmark for the Land Cruiser line, balancing luxury, technology, and off-road capability in a flagship package.


Land Cruiser 70 Series


The 70 Series remains Toyota's rugged, utilitarian backcountry workhorse, kept in production in markets that prize durability and simplicity.


Essential details about the 70 Series include:



  • Hardcore off-road lineage with a long-running legacy

  • Continues in selected markets where a durable, no-frills utility vehicle is in demand

  • Offered in multiple body styles (two- and four-door) with 4x4 configurations in many regions

  • Engine options vary by market, typically including diesel and petrol choices

  • Frequently used by commercial fleets, rural operators, and adventure-focused buyers


The 70 Series endures as a cornerstone for extreme-duty off-roading in regions that still rely on proven, simple mechanicals.


Land Cruiser Prado


The Prado is the smaller, family-friendly member of the Land Cruiser family, widely sold outside the United States and serving as an accessible entry point to the lineup.


Details about the Prado lineup include:



  • Mid-size SUV positioned below the LC300 in most markets

  • Available in 5- or 7-seat configurations depending on regional spec

  • Popular in Europe, Asia, Australia, the Middle East, and Africa; US availability has varied by generation

  • Engine options range by market, including petrol and diesel variants

  • Balanced for everyday comfort with competent off-road ability


The Prado serves as an approachable entry point to the Land Cruiser family in many regions, combining practicality with off-road competence.


Summary


As of 2025, Toyota’s Land Cruiser lineup centers on three active model lines—the LC300, the 70 Series, and the Prado—though the naming and availability of each can differ by market. The LC300 is the current flagship full-size option, the 70 Series caters to rugged, utilitarian use, and the Prado offers a smaller, more versatile choice for everyday driving and light off-roading. Regional demand and regulatory differences shape which models are sold where.
