Toyota Land Cruiser is a Japanese off-road passenger car, currently produced by Toyota Motor Corporation, which was first presented to the public in 1954. Its serial production started in the same year and is still going on. It has therefore been produced for over 60 years! During it, the model was manufactured in several cities around the world, including: Kariya in Japan, Ovar in Portugal or Cumana in Venezuela.

Work on the Land Cruiser model began in the 1940s and assumed the creation of a model dedicated to both the civil and military market. In 1951, the Toyota Jeep model was created, which - as the name suggests - drew from the solutions used in the famous American off-road car. However, after the protests of the Willys plants, the Toyota concern changed the model name to the Land Cruiser, which has survived to the present day. In the course of a very long series production, a lot of variants and development versions were created, but a relatively important turning point in the development of the Toyota Land Cruiser was 1967, when versions intended not only for off-road driving, but also with richer equipment and greater driving comfort appeared. One of the newest versions of the model is the J200, which was presented in 2007 and which is still in production. It is a typical 5-door SUV with a range of engines ranging from 4.0 to 5.7 liters.
