"Mighty off-road performance and good reliability make the Toyota Land Cruiser a bulletproof 4x4, but it is not as comfortable as competitors like the country Rover discovery 4. "

Tonka toy looks and incredible mechanical strength make the land Cruiser a popular choice for drivers who plan great adventures in terrain. Inside feels the interior looks and a little dated, but at least there is a new instrument panel that gathers together in a smart-looking fashion all of these easy-to-use controls. The Land Cruiser has decent equipment levels, with satellite navigation, air conditioning and electric windows as standard with higher specification models. Chunky indicator stalks and heating control are to keep up with the car-no-nonsense image, but competitors such as the Volkswagen Touareg and Audi Q7 feel luxurious and refined.

you just feels so heavy and hard, as you would expect a large off-roader to
If you just from the driver's seat of a small car like the coming Ford Fiesta, the Toyota land Cruiser feel heavy, cumbersome and intimidating to drive. The vague steering is another disappointment, and there is precious little feedback. Along winding roads, the car feels often as if it lumbering.
The addition of electronically controlled suspension reduces body lean, while road and wind noise at highway speeds is not as bad as you can imagine, as the blunt nose and chunky tires. The Land Cruiser four-cylinder diesel engine provides respectable CO2 emissions, but it is not as smooth (or quickly) than the Land Rover Discovery 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine and the Volkswagen Touareg has lower CO2 emissions. Nevertheless, the Land Cruiser engine adjusts its workhorse character.

Interior & Comfort

No squeaks and rattles, but comfort is build disappointing
the cabin of the Toyota land Cruiser rattle is a testament to its excellent quality. However, the car is far from perfect. Despite a new adjustable Adaptive Variable Suspension system that will respond to the - and smooth - rough roads that Toyota never seems completely done. It offers a variety of driver settings. in comfort mode, however, it wallows and floats, while in the dynamic setting his body smallest lumps and bumps wriggling about.
entry-level models have Toyota Touch 2 multimedia system with a DAB radio, and the touch-2 system comes with GPS on all but the entry-level "active" model. An optional Safety Pack throws kit as adaptive cruise control, blind spot detection and a "multi-terrain Monitor, which gives a 360-degree view of the road or the ground around them.

practicality & trunk
-
cabin can accommodate up to seven, but the place is limited
on the paper of the top specification car seven-seat cabin sounds extremely handy, but the land Cruiser penetrate narrow track and large engine and chassis components, and make it small inside. What's more, the rear seats are not easy to fold flat, as they are in the land Rover Discovery. We recommend the five-seater.

reliability and safety

few cars are so reliable and trouble-free
few cars are built to prove to withstand the abuse you throw at a land Cruiser. Owners all seem to agree: There are not many cars that will prove as reliable and trouble-free. Perfectly suited to life in the extremes (who travel a lot, will tell you LandCruiser are a familiar sight everywhere from the equator to the Arctic), the Land Cruiser has an unrivaled reputation for toughness. Security is reasonable, equipped with all the cars with driver and passenger airbags, and traction and stability control.

resale values are strong, but it is expensive [tobuy
the Toyota land Cruiser is far from cheap, but it is well equipped and offers the price worth it as second-hand prices are relatively strong. Owners can Landcruiser expect about 40% of its value to keep more than three years - which is as much as some upscale models from BMW and Mercedes. However, in mid spec Icon models of Toyota Touch 2 multimedia system which includes GPS, a digital DAB radio and Bluetooth phone connection.
