Used Toyota Land Cruiser 2017 Automatic

With a far more conventional look than the LX 570, the Land Cruiser looks back to its early-1990s past with its chrome-heavy front fascia. It remains bulbous, but those curves do a reasonable job of hiding its girth. Inside, a choice of black or saddle leather trim keeps the Land Cruiser fairly fresh, and although it is highly functional, it lacks the flair of some rivals. There's room for eight, but the third row seat, as is the norm for big SUVs, is best for those of smaller stature. A complement of buttons and knobs on the center console operate a suite of features that turn this big SUV into a genuine rock crawler; that's more useful in, say, Mongolia than in Manhasset. But it's nice to know that capability is there.

That off-road talent compromises the Land Cruiser's usefulness as an urban utility vehicle—but not as much as it used to. Today's Land Cruiser boasts a trick suspension system that combines ultra-thick sway bars with a hydraulic system that automatically disconnects them for off-road articulation. The Land Cruiser also added a suite of active safety features for 2017, including automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane departure warnings, automatic high-beam LED headlights, adaptive cruise control, and blind-spot monitors with rear cross traffic alerts. A rearview camera and 10 airbags are standard.
