Release starts on April 18, 2024. At the same time, special edition cars ZX “First Edition” and VX “First Edition” will be sold in a limited edition of 8,000 units. The name “Prado” has been abolished except in some areas due to the following policy.

The new model “250” series is a core model of the Land Cruiser, and was born to provide ease of handling based on its ability to travel on rough roads, and to take on the role and mission of supporting the lives of many people.

This time, the development team worked to restore the light-duty model, which has traditionally been the Land Cruiser Prado, to its original form desired by customers, which has shifted towards high-end and luxurious models over time. With the keyword “return to basics,” we set the development concept as “The Land Cruiser: A car that pursues simplicity and robustness, supports customers’ daily lives and practical needs, and is trusted by customers.”

The introduction of the “250” series has made the position of the three “Land Cruiser” models even clearer. The name of the vehicle has also returned to its roots, with all models being named “Land Cruiser.” The Land Cruiser will continue to evolve in order to continue to be a trusted vehicle that supports the lives of customers around the world while responding to the various demands of society.

1. High basic performance as an off-roader by adopting the GA-F platform
2. Two types of powertrains provide powerful driving performance and high environmental performance befitting a Land Cruiser.
3. Package that pursues functionality and interior and exterior design that integrates tradition and modernity
4. Latest safety and security equipment such as Toyota Safety Sense and Toyota Team Mate
