1 Year and 26,700 Miles in a Toyota Land Cruiser: Our Long-Term Test

After 26,700 miles and a full year of daily driving, road trips, camping, snow, and off-roading, it's finally time to return our 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser. In this long-term review, we break down everything we loved and everything we didn't. From a 9,000-mile Alaska adventure to weekend trail runs and everyday commuting, we've put the Land Cruiser through just about every scenario we could think of.

Despite a few frustrations, including disappointing fuel economy and expensive windshield replacements, the Land Cruiser proved to be an incredibly capable, comfortable SUV that's easy to understand why so many buyers want one.
