What to Know About the 2027 Toyota Land Cruiser

Starting at $57,880 MSRP, the 2027 Land Cruiser is engineered to dominate off-road terrain without sacrificing the comfort you need for daily driving. Under the hood, you’ll find Toyota’s i-FORCE MAX hybrid system, producing 326 horsepower, 465 lb.-ft. of torque, and an estimated 23 mpg combined. Built on Toyota’s durable TNGA-F platform, it strikes a rare balance of raw power, modern technology, and impressive safety credentials.

For 2027, Toyota made a handful of updates worth noting:

  • New “Inked” color option for a sleeker, more aggressive exterior look
  • Available High-Mounted Air Intake for serious off-road and water-crossing capability
  • Available heated and ventilated second-row seats, which will be a welcome comfort upgrade for passengers on long hauls

In a crowded SUV market, the Land Cruiser stands apart by being tough enough to head off the beaten path, yet refined enough for everyday life.

Performance & Off-Road Capability

The 2027 Land Cruiser isn’t just capable off-road, it’s built to go where most SUVs can’t. Powered by the i-FORCE MAX hybrid system and equipped with full-time 4WD as standard, it delivers confident traction in virtually any condition, backed by up to 6,000 lbs. of towing capacity for hauling gear, boats, or trailers. A suite of intelligent off-road systems puts precision control at your fingertips:

  • Center & rear locking differentials maximize traction on uneven or slippery terrain.
  • Multi-Terrain Select allows you to tailor the drivetrain to Mud, Dirt, or Sand with a single switch.
  • CRAWL Control maintains a steady low speed on technical trails, so you can focus on steering.
  • Downhill Assist Control keeps descents smooth and controlled on steep grades.
  • Available Multi-Terrain Monitor gives you a clear view of hidden obstacles.
  • Available Stabilizer Disconnect Mechanism (SDM) improves wheel articulation for maximum contact on rough surfaces.

From sugar sand to rocky trails, the Land Cruiser is engineered to handle it all without breaking a sweat.

Trims, Design & Safety

The 2027 Land Cruiser comes in two distinct trims, each with its own personality:

  • Land Cruiser 1958 – A nod to the original, featuring retro-inspired round headlights and a stripped-back, go-anywhere attitude. It comes standard with core off-road gear and essential tech, making it the choice for purists who want capability without the frills.
  • Land Cruiser (Standard) – A more modern take with a refined exterior, upgraded technology, and access to premium comfort and advanced off-road tools for those who want it all.

On the outside, the Land Cruiser wears its heritage proudly with a boxy, upright silhouette that’s equal parts iconic and functional. Sharp LED lighting and an available roof rack add to the adventure-ready aesthetic, while a standout color palette lets you make it your own. Available shades include Inked, Trail Dust, Heritage Blue, and more.

When it comes to safety, every 2027 Land Cruiser comes standard with Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 (TSS 3.0). TSS 3.0 brings a robust set of features to help prevent collisions, keep you in your lane, and reduce driver fatigue, whether you’re merging on the highway or navigating an unfamiliar trail.
