Toyota Discontinues the Land Cruiser’s Priciest Trim

The 2025 model will start at $57,900, a $555 increase from last year

Toyota is streamlining its lineup. After dropping the “Prime” name from its plug-in-hybrid Prius and RAV4 models, the automaker is now simplifying the Land Cruiser trim structure for 2025.

The 2025 Land Cruiser starts at $57,900, including a $1,450 destination fee—$555 more than last year. The limited First Edition model has been discontinued, and buyers can now choose between the base 1958 trim or the standard Land Cruiser trim.

The Land Cruiser 1958 model features a retro design with rounded LED headlights, a “TOYOTA” heritage grille at the front, and basic cloth seats inside. It comes standard with an 8.0-inch touchscreen that includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The standard Land Cruiser trim boasts slim rectangular LED headlights, faux leather seats, and two 12.3-inch screens.

The Land Cruiser receives two minor upgrades for 2025. Toyota introduces a new integrated liftgate that enhances nighttime visibility in the cargo area, along with a new monotone Heritage Blue paint option for the standard trim.

Choosing the Premium package (identical to last year’s offering) includes 20-inch wheels, a 14-speaker JBL audio system, a head-up display, wireless charging, and more, costing $5,840.

Both versions of the 2025 Land Cruiser are equipped with the same 2.4-liter four-cylinder I-Force Max hybrid powertrain, delivering 326 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque, along with standard four-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic transmission. This retro-inspired SUV achieves up to 23 miles per gallon combined.

The 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser will arrive at dealerships later this fall.
