We’re so excited that Toyota has decided to revive the iconic Land Cruiser SUV! Toyota of Orlando is here to let you know what to expect from the 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser when it arrives next spring.

The Icon Returns: 2024 Land Cruiser Shakes Up the Hybrid Game from Test Miles on Vimeo.

After a brief hiatus, the legendary Toyota Land Cruiser is making a triumphant return to the U.S. market, redefining the expectations for hybrid SUVs with a blend of rugged capability and cutting-edge technology. With a starting MSRP of $55,950, the all-new 2024 Land Cruiser is not just reviving a nameplate but also signaling Toyota’s commitment to a future where efficiency meets power.

A Hybrid Powertrain Like No Other

Gone are the days when “hybrid” was synonymous with compromise. The 2024 Land Cruiser debuts the i-FORCE MAX hybrid powertrain, a bold move that delivers an impressive 326 horsepower and a staggering 465 lb.-ft. of torque. This isn’t your typical hybrid setup; it’s designed to conquer, tow up to 6,000 pounds, and still offer an EPA-estimated 23 MPG combined rating. This powertrain underscores Toyota’s commitment to environmental responsibility without sacrificing the performance the Land Cruiser is known for.

Designed for the Trail

The new Land Cruiser is not just about what’s under the hood. Its design and features pay homage to its rugged, off-road heritage while incorporating modern technology. From its full-time four-wheel drive with center and rear-locking differentials to its decreased front overhang for greater approach angles, Toyota has engineered the Land Cruiser to tackle any terrain. The addition of the front stabilizer bar disconnect mechanism and Multi-Terrain Select further enhances its off-road prowess, proving that true capability does not compromise.

Inside the Beast

The interior of the 2024 Land Cruiser combines luxury with utility. Available plush power heated and ventilated front seats, reclining rear seats, and a suite of technological advancements make it clear that this vehicle is designed for both comfort and adventure. The integration of a new multimedia touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay®, and Android Auto™, along with an available 14-speaker JBL® audio system, ensures that the Land Cruiser is as connected and entertaining as it is capable.

Safety and Grade Strategy

Safety remains a top priority, with the Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 package standard across all models. This suite of advanced driver assistance systems emphasizes Toyota’s commitment to not only the safety of Land Cruiser occupants but also to pedestrians and other road users.

The 2024 Land Cruiser will be available in three distinct grades, each catering to different user preferences. From the nostalgia-infused 1958 grade with retro-inspired round LED headlamps to the First Edition grade that packs standard premium features and off-road essentials, Toyota offers a Land Cruiser for every enthusiast.

A Color for Every Taste

Choice extends to the exterior color options, with seven unique shades ensuring that the Land Cruiser stands out in any setting. Whether it’s the sleek Ice Cap or the bold Heritage Blue, each color choice enhances the vehicle’s distinctive design.

Warranty and Maintenance: Peace of Mind Included

Toyota’s comprehensive warranty and ToyotaCare plan for scheduled maintenance and roadside assistance provide additional peace of mind, emphasizing reliability and customer care.

As the Land Cruiser makes its anticipated return, it brings with it a promise of innovation, efficiency, and unmatched capability. This is not just a comeback; it’s a revolution in the SUV category, blending tradition with futuristic technology. The 2024 Land Cruiser is set to redefine the standards for luxury off-roaders, proving once again why it remains an icon in Toyota’s lineup.

Conquer the Coast: Best Wagons for Tackling Soft Sand Challenges

Exploring the coastal beauty often involves navigating through soft sands that can pose a significant challenge for vehicles. Whether it's for a weekend getaway or an adventure-filled road trip, choosing the right wagon capable of conquering these sandy terrains is crucial. The quest for the best wagon for soft sand demands an understanding of the vehicle's features, capabilities, and performance in such conditions.

Key Considerations for Conquering Soft Sand

When assessing the suitability of a wagon for soft sand adventures, several factors come into play:

Off-Road Capabilities: The ability of a wagon to handle various terrains is pivotal. This includes having adequate ground clearance, robust suspension, and a powerful engine to navigate through the soft, shifting sands without getting stuck.

Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) or All-Wheel Drive (AWD): Vehicles equipped with 4WD or AWD systems offer better traction on sandy surfaces. This feature ensures power is distributed to all wheels, enhancing control and maneuverability in challenging conditions.

Tire Selection: The type of tires plays a significant role in navigating soft sands. Wide, all-terrain tires with lower air pressure increase the footprint, preventing the vehicle from sinking and improving traction.

Power and Torque: A wagon with sufficient power and torque helps to maintain momentum, preventing bogging down in sand.

Keeping these factors in mind, several wagons stand out as top contenders for conquering soft sand challenges.

1. Toyota Land Cruiser

Renowned for its off-road prowess, the Toyota Land Cruiser boasts a robust build, exceptional ground clearance, and a powerful engine. Equipped with a capable 4WD system, advanced traction control, and off-road driving modes, the Land Cruiser excels in traversing sandy terrains with ease. Its reliability and off-road heritage make it a favored choice among adventurers tackling coastal sands.

2. Jeep Wrangler

The Jeep Wrangler is an iconic off-roader recognized for its exceptional performance on various terrains, including soft sand. With its impressive ground clearance, rugged design, and available 4WD system, the Wrangler confidently takes on sandy challenges. Its customizable features and specialized off-road editions further enhance its capabilities for coastal adventures.

Click here to know more : -

3. Land Rover Defender

The Land Rover Defender combines modern technology with off-road prowess. Equipped with sophisticated terrain response systems, adaptive air suspension, and advanced 4WD capabilities, the Defender excels in conquering soft sands. Its durable build and versatility make it a reliable companion for coastal explorations.

4. Subaru Outback

Known for its reliability and versatility, the Subaru Outback offers AWD as a standard feature across its lineup. While not as rugged as some traditional off-roaders, the Outback's ground clearance and symmetrical AWD system provide commendable performance on sandy surfaces. Its practicality and comfortable ride make it an excellent choice for those seeking a blend of capability and everyday usability.

5. Ford Bronco

Making a triumphant return, the Ford Bronco embraces its off-road heritage with advanced features tailored for tackling challenging terrains. With available 4WD configurations, specialized off-road modes, and features like a terrain management system, the Bronco is designed to navigate soft sands effortlessly while offering versatility for coastal adventures.

Conclusion

When venturing into coastal areas with soft sands, choosing the right wagon is crucial for a hassle-free and enjoyable experience. The Toyota Land Cruiser, Jeep Wrangler, Land Rover Defender, Subaru Outback, and Ford Bronco stand out as top contenders due to their off-road capabilities, traction systems, and overall reliability.

Before embarking on sandy escapades, it's essential to equip the chosen wagon with proper tire pressure, recovery gear, and a basic understanding of off-road driving techniques. With the right best beach wagon and preparation, conquering the coast and its soft sand challenges becomes an exhilarating adventure waiting to unfold.

VLD Rewatch: Season 3

For a half-of-a-half season, season 3 packs quite a bit in and sets up a lot of plot. This shouldn't be surprising; Voltron was laid out as three 26-ep seasons, with each season bringing a new big bad and new theme. Season 3 is our beginning of the Lotor arc and there's a lot of setup and... a lot to unpack here.

For those who are still in "can't do it" mode about rewatching the series (which is fair), here's a quick summary to catch you up:

Shiro has been missing for (it's kind of implied) months. Without Shiro, Voltron and the group are fractured, especially with Keith's deep grief over losing Shiro preventing the recruitment a new Paladin.

Ultimately, Keith takes up the mantle of the Black Lion, Lance moves to Red, and Allura gets Blue. The group is clumsy and outmatched by Lotor and his generals who are definitely Up to Something. Keith tries to play leader and it's a bad look when he's making decisions via grief escapism. The team gets briefly trapped on a foggy wifi-less planet, discovers a bizarro alt-reality where Alteans rule the universe and Shiro is Swedish and doesn't mind Slav, and trails after Lotor and Co who have made off with the reality-breaking comet from Svavland.

Meanwhile Shiro escapes the Galra again, catches up with Voltron, shares a couple lowlit intimate moments with Keith while also awkwardly undermining his authority and jeopardizing the safety of the team, but no one suspects a thing.

Oh and there's a flashback episode about the OG paladins that I'll be honest I skipped since it turns out literally nothing that happened in the past is relevant to the present day and our only major revelations are that we (and Haggar) learn that she was once Honerva, Zarkon her husband was once kinda adorable, and turning evil swaps out your voice actor. Oh and Honerva had a cat who may or may not be as old as Haggar and potentially still kicking around.

Let's talk about season 3.

There's good and bad to be had with this season. Originally when I began my rewatch of the show I wanted to do it as though I were watching the season for the first time. Season 1 and 2 made that astonishingly easy; of all the seasons they seem the most confident about what the show is and what it's going for. Season 1 is for the mild setup and world building, season 2 is for the character building, relationship building, lion building, and problem resolving. Season 2 is arguably the show's strongest season overall so it's a tough act to follow. Season 3... makes an effort.

The good of this season is really good. Keith's grief over losing Shiro surprised and moved me the first time I saw the season and I was impressed with how long they held onto it given the show's habit of moving on pretty quick. Keith's grief holds the team back and endangers it; his early insistence on going after Lotor felt like a way to channel his anguish and maybe get a little revenge for his loss. Keith got one of his most significant character boosts in season 2, and following it through in this season sets up a complicated Keith that we will see for seasons to come.

The other good is Lotor. Lotor is handsome and charismatic and devastatingly cunning and is a polar opposite to his Saturday-morning-cartoon-villain dad. Zarkon was threatening, but Lotor is INTERESTING and his "wait and see" approach makes us the audience want to wait and see what he's up to. His band of generals are intriguing and colorful and I love the variation of their designs and personalities.

And of course, we can't talk about the good stuff in season 3 without discussing Shiro and Keith's relationship. Season 2 gave us some really fantastic growth and moments and entire episodes between them, but Season 3 brought a new level of intimacy that definitely bumped it up a notch. From the slow-moving reunion and closeups of only Shiro and Keith's faces, to their quiet moments alone in dimly lit rooms. This season gave us "as many times as it takes", which remains one of the most beautiful little exchanges between the pair in the whole series. The jury is still out on whether or not Sheith was a hopeful intention by the creatives on this show or just an incredibly happy accident, but looking at some of the decisions made in 3x05 and 3x06 especially lean more to the former. These scenes are more bittersweet now knowing how it all ends up.

There is a lot of setup for future things in general, and this is where it becomes difficult to separate what is in s3 with what will be by the end of s6 (and beyond) because some things we just can't unknow. It was really interesting to see how things that made me very hyped after this season now take on a bit of a disappointing and even bitter flavor because some roads really don't go anywhere. Lotor's mysterious plans for instance, only seem to get more mysterious, as do his allegiances. He spends most of this season clearly toying with the Paladins, clearly prepared to destroy them or let them destroy themselves, but later he sides with them and the Paladins seem pretty quick to forgive this and assume he's a good guy now. Lotor's "side" is never clearly established since his goals never are. The Lotor in s3 is interesting by virtue of the assumption that we will eventually learn all his secrets. But we never do, and that definitely for me taints him as a character.

Speaking of some mixed character motivations, s4 reveals that Narti was either a spy for Haggar the whole time or that Kova was, or both, and yet in season 3 Haggar sends a goon off to spy on Lotor. Even in Haggar's private moments she seems unsure of what Lotor is up to so this later reveal that she was aware the whole time is an odd one and still left very vague.

Similarly, major problems arise with Shiro in s3 but only via the hindsight of s4-6. Everything about the way Shiro is brought back into the fold in season 3 is highly suspicious. From a narrative standpoint I want to say it begins with Sven as foreshadowing, an alternate-reality Shiro who looks JUST LIKE SHIRO but is NOT SHIRO. Unfortunately I think this was less of an audience wink and more of an excuse to nod to the original Sven. But Shiro's Journey opens with scientists doing tests on him, Shiro's pupils dilating to the sound of camera lens adjustments, and Shiro literally seeing a dead-eyed copy of himself on a slab. The words "Operation Kuron" are repeated at least three times as the Galra let him escape. When Shiro meets the two aliens on the ice planet and they accuse him of being a traitor, Shiro protests, "I'm not a--" and never finishes. He does pilot logs into a Galra Cruiser as he tails Voltron. And that's just in one episode.

The next episode has him repeatedly undermining Keith's newfound leadership position (a position Shiro repeatedly encouraged Keith into in s1/2 to Keith's great reluctance), to the point of talking over him and shouting at him. He dismisses the safety of the team for the sake of the mission; something that goes expressly against the team Voltron way of doing things (Kolivan details this in s4) and is completely against Shiro's nature. It felt manipulative to me the first time and it still feels off when at the end of this he privately tells Keith "I'm sorry I had to step in back there", referring to Keith's failure (which was not a failure) and then in the next breath "you're good at this." This was the topic of many a heated debate when the episode came out but from my end there is just no way to see that the man presented here is Shiro and not an insidious clone.

There's a term for this that I forget where the storyteller essentially gaslights the audience for no real reason. Ultimately we will come to know that this is Shiro. A little more short-tempered but ultimately a good boy and not the potentially fully aware evil clone that season 3 hints at. It's bad writing; and the reason that it's bad writing is that the audience is privy to very little more than the characters are when it comes to Kuron and yet the characters are not in the slightest bit suspicious about the behaviour that we the audience sees as suspect. We end up gaslighting ourselves because of bad writing, only to learn that we were right the whole time. And genuinely, speaking as someone who loves all Shiros dearly, Kuron is a whole walking writing disaster. But more on that as we get further into the season.

I don't love the episode, but the Comet episode is a surprisingly adult-oriented one and presents an interesting flip to things and an intriguing hypothesis that I wish had been explored better, or longer, or something. As I've said 100x before, Galra aren't an inherently evil race; they're the result of a 10,000 yr universe takeover. This episode suggests that Alteans are no better, and the broader implications of this are massive and should have offered a much bigger fundamental shift in the characters and the way they viewed this war. In particular Allura, who previously immediately turned against Keith the moment his heritage was revealed, despite having become good friends with him. Her learning that her own people aren't immune to "absolute power corrupts absolutely" is a moment that is not given any real weight or consequence . This is a letdown especially since this potentially weightier-themed episode was self-aware enough of that weight to be the only episode outside of the Voldemort season to show imagery maybe a little too old for its younger audience (the repeated shot of the mummified Altean scientist).

From a production standpoint I noticed a lot of little things. There were a number of hookup issues; some hilariously drawn bg characters, some compositing that worked and some that decidedly didn't. Some of the editing was a little rough in places and some of the timing of things felt very off. There were some jokes that ran long and didn't land and threw the pacing off or stole time from other things. The editing on the Comet episode was particularly off and the characters were visually difficult to track at times. Also, there is definitely a different/longer version of the "As many times as it takes" scene even if it only exists in script or maybe board form. All of the Shiros in that scene were drawn by Ryu, who was often tapped for revisions (particularly for Shiro and Lotor). But the Keith in that scene is not a Ryu Keith; and Keith's "Well--" in "If you're feeling up to it" sounds like two lines spliced together. Ryu's fingerprints are all over 3x06 in interesting places; I definitely spotted his artwork in at least one shot of the Galra post leader and I think a Zethrid. He drew a few of the short haired Shiros as well. I think this episode underwent a number of changes; I remember too that Lance exclaiming "you're looking better" was originally Keith's line. At the same time we get little nice superfluous animations like the foreground gecko. Just a lot of inconsistencies.

Overall it's still an alright season but knowing what's coming means I just don't love this season the way I used to. The little moments that rock still rock but a lot of plot pawns were pushed forward that were ultimately just discarded. I can't wait to see if finishing the next 3 seasons will retroactively bump this season back up to where it once was in my heart.

Distintas caras para el Land Cruiser Heritage Edition

Con la configuración de Emiratos Árabes Unidos, se le dota de una identidad más clásica. En Estados Unidos y Australia va ligado a un nivel superior de lujo, aunque no se olvida de varias protecciones de sus elementos mecánicos o la eliminación de algunos cromados y estribos.

Claro que las diferencias son extensas. El norteamericano usa un V8 de 5,7 l, automático de 8 relaciones frente al V6 4.0 con 5 velocidades y caja manual, o V8 4.6 automático de 6. Las llantas son también menores, concretamente de 17″. En la terminación interior hay un mundo de diferencia o la puerta trasera de doble hoja con la oportuna rueda de recambio.

Y finalmente la nota de prensa. Extensa en un lado y unas mediocres imágenes para las sólo 20 unidades disponibles en EAU, frente a las 1200 unidades asignadas a EE.UU.
