2020 Toyota Land Cruiser review

1. Spacious and comfortable interior

Considering it's a full-size SUV, it's no wonder that one of the strongest suits of the 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser is its roomy cabin. With three rows of seats, it can accommodate up to eight people. Front headroom measures 38.3 inches and front legroom comes in at 42.9 inches. Passengers in the second row get 38.9 inches of headroom and 34.4 inches of legroom. What's more, it comes standard with leather upholstery, ten-way power-adjustable heated and ventilated front seats, as well as heated second-row seats. This three-row layout makes the 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser an ideal choice for large families or groups that need a higher seating capacity than what a typical two-row SUV can offer.

2. Abundant cargo space

All that room for passengers on the 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser is appropriately accompanied by the abundant cargo space. Behind the third row, it has 16.1 cu-ft of cargo capacity, which increases to 41 cu-ft when you fold down the third-row seats. The total cargo volume, with the second-row seats also folded down, is a whopping 81.7 cu-ft. With this kind of storage room, you won't have to worry about fitting in all your bags and suitcases for your future family vacations, or the week's worth of grocery bags, your kids' gear for all those afterschool activities, your own sporting or fishing equipment, and much more.

3. Excellent towing capacity

In addition to being a practical and convenient choice, the 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser is also marked by its utility and functionality aspects. First and foremost, the towing capacity of the Land Cruiser is something that you'll undoubtedly appreciate. Powered by the standard 5.7L V8 engine, it can tow up to an estimated 8,100 lbs when properly equipped.

4. Off-road driving

If you are an off-road enthusiast, you should give the 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser a closer look. It's powered by a 5.7L V8 engine that generates 381 hp and 401 lb-ft of torque and comes standard with four-wheel drive. Along with this potent engine, the Cruiser is equipped with several features that allow you to drive on almost any type of terrain with ease and a high level of confidence, and overcome various obstacles you might encounter on an off-road trail. Some of the more noteworthy off-road features include the Multi-Terrain Select system, crawl control, and the Multi-Terrain Monitor, along with a locking center differential.

5. Attractive infotainment and convenience features

The 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser is equipped with plenty of features that enhance the overall driving experience, especially when it comes to entertainment, connectivity, and convenience. For instance, it comes standard with a nine-inch touchscreen infotainment system, along with wireless charging and a navigation system. Bluetooth^® connectivity is also standard, as is a 14-speaker JBL^® sound system. For added convenience and comfort, there is a power moonroof and four-zone automatic air conditioning. For the 2020 model year, Toyota added the limited Heritage Edition trim, which includes a couple of unique styling options, such as darkened headlight and fog light housings, a specially designed grille and an upgraded roof rack.
