How it scores for you10 scores
A Land Cruiser in a tuxedo: nearly indestructible and rated to tow 7,000 lbs, but 15-mpg thirst and decade-old tech come with the armor.
Recalled far less often than cars of the same model years; none of its 3 recalls were serious. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions. Adjusted +10 points for its wider reputation.
Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.
About $5,350 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — among the most expensive cars we track to run.
15.5 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 11% of other SUVs we track.
Huge cabin; the side-folding third row eats cargo space and the way-back is kid-sized.
Nearly three tons of body-on-frame wafting; steering and brakes prioritize durability, not response.
Dated infotainment and a button-heavy dash persisted to the end of the run.
Cushy ride and rich materials, though the platform's truck roots always show.
Luxury brands like Lexus tend to lose value faster than average.
Rated to tow 7,000 lb; all- or four-wheel drive available.
