History of the Toyota Land Cruiser & J250 Review

Hagerty explores the decades-long, international lineage of the Toyota Land Cruiser. Jason Camissa is in Salt Lake City at the Land Cruiser Heritage Museum to cover the history, legacy, and current state of the famed automobile. Cammisa drives an FJ40, a HJ61, an HDJ81, and both the TJH250 Land Cruiser and the VJA252 Lexus GX550.

The 2024 Toyota J250 Land Cruiser is a 4-cylinder hybrid and cost less than the J200 it replaced. That hybrid aspect of the vehicle trades cargo space for the battery so there is no third row of seats and far less cargo space. Watch to see how the hybrid 4-cylinder stacks up against its v8 predecessors. Jason Cammisa on the ICONS is a cinematic, feature-length history lesson and review of legendary vehicles.
