The Toyota Land Cruiser has reached its 75th year, and Toyota is marking the milestone with a tightly limited anniversary model.
Only 75 examples are being offered, and for now, the special edition is exclusive to Germany.
It’s a small run for one of Toyota’s most enduring nameplates, with a mix of heritage styling, modern cabin tech and proper off-road equipment.
At a glance
- Toyota has created a 75-unit Land Cruiser anniversary edition to mark 75 years of the nameplate.
- The SUV features retro-inspired round headlights, dark 18-inch wheels and an available exclusive Smoky Blue finish.
- The model is exclusive to Germany for now and uses a 2.8-litre mild-hybrid turbodiesel with four-wheel drive.
Heritage styling with a limited-run twist
The most obvious nod to Land Cruiser history is up front, where the anniversary edition uses round headlights for a more classic look.
Toyota is also offering the model in an exclusive Smoky Blue finish, though the anniversary edition can be ordered in several other colours as well.
Dark-finished 18-inch multi-spoke wheels give the SUV a more purposeful stance without pulling it too far away from the utilitarian character that defines the Land Cruiser.
A 75th-anniversary badge adds the discreet identifier collectors tend to appreciate on limited-run models.
A modern cabin with commemorative details
Inside, the special edition gets a pair of 12.3-inch digital displays, giving the cabin a more contemporary feel than its old-school exterior references might suggest.
The equipment list also includes an electrically adjustable driver’s seat, a heated steering wheel and two-zone climate control.
Toyota is adding a commemorative box for buyers, including an enamel plaque, a Tomica scale model, an embossed keychain and a Land Cruiser history book.
That’s a neat touch for an anniversary model, especially one attached to a nameplate with genuine global recognition among off-road buyers.
Off-road hardware remains central
The anniversary edition is powered by a 2.8-litre mild-hybrid turbodiesel producing 203 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque.
It’s paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel drive.
The mechanical package keeps the focus where it should be, with a rear differential lock, stabilizer disconnect, Crawl Control and Multi-Terrain Monitor all included.
Those features matter because the Land Cruiser’s appeal has never rested on styling alone.
