2026 Toyota Land Cruiser Trim Levels: Everything You Need to Know

The RAV4 has been one of the most popular SUVs in America for years, which is why the 2026 redesign matters to so many shoppers around New Bern. The sixth-generation RAV4 changes more than its look, and knowing how the new trim ladder works can save you time and money before you ever step onto the lot. The 2026 Toyota RAV4 trim levels include six hybrid grades (LE, SE, XLE Premium, Woodland, XSE, Limited) and four plug-in hybrid grades (SE, Woodland, XSE, GR SPORT), priced from $31,900 to $48,500 MSRP. Every 2026 RAV4 is electrified, with up to 52 miles of estimated EV range on the plug-in. At Toyota of New Bern, our team has spent more than 25 years helping drivers from New Bern, Havelock, Jacksonville, and Morehead City find the Toyota that fits their commute and their budget. This guide breaks down every 2026 RAV4 trim, explains what happened to the gas model, and shows how the hybrid and plug-in hybrid options compare. Key Points: 2026 Toyota RAV4 Trim Levels Every 2026 RAV4 is a hybrid. Toyota retired the gas-only RAV4 with this all-new generation, so every grade pairs a 2.5L engine with electric motors for up to an EPA-estimated 43 mpg combined. The plug-in hybrid got stronger and less expensive. The 2026 RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid makes 324 hp, covers up to an estimated 52 miles on electricity, and starts more than $3,300 below last year's RAV4 Prime. Toyota Safety Sense 4.0 is standard on every grade. Even the base LE gets Toyota's newest driver-assist suite, a 10.5-inch touchscreen, and a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster. 2026 Toyota RAV4 Trim Levels at a Glance: Hybrid and Plug-In Prices for New Bern Drivers Ten configurations across seven trim names can get confusing, especially with three trims offered in both hybrid and plug-in form. Here's the full lineup in one place, and you can see current models on our new Toyota RAV4 in New Bern page. Trim Powertrain Drivetrain Starting MSRP LE Hybrid (226 to 236 hp) FWD or AWD $31,900 SE Hybrid (226 to 236 hp) FWD or AWD $34,700 XLE Premium Hybrid (226 to 236 hp) FWD or AWD $36,100 Woodland Hybrid (236 hp) AWD $39,900 XSE Hybrid (236 hp) AWD $41,300 SE Plug-in Hybrid Plug-in hybrid (324 hp) AWD $41,500 Limited Hybrid (236 hp) AWD $43,300 Woodland Plug-in Hybrid Plug-in hybrid (324 hp) AWD $45,300 XSE Plug-in Hybrid Plug-in hybrid (324 hp) AWD $47,200 GR SPORT Plug-in Hybrid Plug-in hybrid (324 hp) AWD $48,500 Starting MSRP excludes the $1,450 delivery, processing, and handling fee, plus taxes, title, registration, and dealer charges. AWD adds $1,400 on LE, SE, and XLE Premium hybrid models. Performance and efficiency figures are manufacturer and EPA estimates. Contact Toyota of New Bern to confirm current pricing and availability. A few details stand out once the lineup is sorted by price. The SE Plug-in Hybrid starts below the hybrid Limited, so shoppers weighing the top hybrid trim can step into 324 hp and electric commuting for less. Only the LE, SE, and XLE Premium offer front-wheel drive, which also carries the best fuel economy. And the Woodland hybrid posts the lowest EPA estimate in the hybrid lineup (38 mpg combined), the trade-off for its all-terrain tires. Is There Still a Gas-Only 2026 Toyota RAV4? No. The 2026 Toyota RAV4 is sold only as a hybrid or plug-in hybrid, with no gas-only version. Every 2026 RAV4 still runs on regular gasoline, and the standard hybrid never needs to be plugged in because its battery recharges on its own while you drive. A hybrid is a vehicle that pairs a gas engine with electric motors and a self-charging battery, using both to cut fuel use. For RAV4 shoppers, the practical upside is simple: you still fill up at the same pump, just less often. Drivers set on a gas-only RAV4 would need to shop a 2025 or earlier model. Hybrid or Plug-In Hybrid: How the 2026 RAV4 Powertrains Compare The 2026 RAV4 Hybrid uses a 2.5L four-cylinder and electric motors for 226 hp in FWD form or 236 hp with AWD. The 2026 RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid adds a larger battery and wall charging for 324 hp and up to an estimated 52 miles of electric-only driving. A plug-in hybrid (PHEV) is a vehicle with a rechargeable battery large enough to drive on electricity alone for short trips, backed by a gas engine for longer drives. Overnight charging at home covers most daily errands around New Bern, while the engine takes over for trips to the Crystal Coast. The Woodland and XSE Plug-in Hybrid models add DC fast charging, reaching 10 to 80 percent in about 30 minutes. Compare trims on our RAV4 Hybrid lineup page. RAV4 LE, SE, and XLE Premium: Everyday Hybrid Value The 2026 RAV4 LE starts at $31,900 MSRP with 17-inch alloy wheels, roof rails, a 10.5-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and up to an EPA-estimated 43 mpg combined in FWD form. Havelock and Jacksonville commuters will feel that at the pump. The 2026 RAV4 SE ($34,700 MSRP) adds a sportier look with 18-inch black wheels, heated front seats, and a power-adjustable driver's seat. The 2026 RAV4 XLE Premium ($36,100 MSRP) steps up to synthetic leather seating, a wireless phone charger, and parking assist with automatic braking. RAV4 Woodland: Built for Dirt Roads and Beach Weekends The 2026 RAV4 Woodland starts at $39,900 MSRP as a hybrid and $45,300 MSRP as a plug-in hybrid, with AWD standard on both. The Woodland adds all-terrain tires, raised roof rails with crossbars, LED fog lights, and a 2-inch tow hitch. The Woodland is the RAV4 built for gear-heavy weekends, from kayak runs on the Trent River to camping in the Croatan National Forest. The Woodland Plug-in Hybrid also includes DC fast charging. RAV4 XSE and Limited: The Premium End of the Hybrid Lineup The 2026 RAV4 XSE ($41,300 MSRP) and 2026 RAV4 Limited ($43,300 MSRP) both come with AWD, a 12.9-inch touchscreen, and heated and ventilated front seats. Ventilated seats earn their keep in an eastern North Carolina summer. The XSE leans sporty with a moonroof and hands-free power liftgate, while the Limited adds a panoramic roof and a nine-speaker JBL audio system. The 2026 RAV4 Plug-In Hybrid SE, XSE, and GR SPORT The 2026 RAV4 SE Plug-in Hybrid starts at $41,500 MSRP and delivers up to an estimated 52 miles of EV range, tied for the longest in the lineup. The XSE Plug-in Hybrid ($47,200 MSRP) matches that range and adds a 12.9-inch touchscreen, ventilated front seats, a surround-view camera, and DC fast charging. The 2026 RAV4 GR SPORT ($48,500 MSRP) is a new plug-in hybrid trim with Toyota GAZOO Racing-tuned suspension and unique styling. The GR SPORT is the RAV4 tuned for drivers who care how an SUV handles a curve, and it still offers up to an estimated 48 miles of EV range. Which 2026 Toyota RAV4 Trim Fits Your Drive? The right RAV4 depends on how far you drive, where you park overnight, and how much comfort you want: Maximum value and fuel economy: The LE in FWD form, rated up to an EPA-estimated 43 mpg combined. Sporty look on a budget: The SE hybrid, with heated seats standard. Daily comfort upgrades: The XLE Premium and its synthetic leather seating. Beach gear, camping, and dirt roads: The Woodland, hybrid or plug-in. Premium cabin: The XSE or Limited, both with ventilated seats and a 12.9-inch screen. Short commute with home charging: The SE Plug-in Hybrid, with up to 52 miles of estimated EV range. Performance first: The GR SPORT Plug-in Hybrid.

Choosing a Tundra is the easy part, but choosing the right Tundra is where most truck shoppers slow down. Seven trims, two powertrains, and a price spread of nearly $40,000 make the 2026 lineup worth a closer look. The 2026 Toyota Tundra trim levels are the SR, SR5, Limited, Platinum, 1794 Edition, TRD Pro, and Capstone, with starting MSRP from $41,260 to $80,800. A twin-turbo V6 powers most grades, and the 437-hp i-FORCE MAX hybrid is available from the Limited up. Every grade now gets a 32.2-gallon fuel tank. At Toyota of New Bern, our team has spent more than 25 years matching drivers from New Bern, Havelock, Jacksonville, and Morehead City with trucks that fit how they actually work and play. This guide covers every 2026 Toyota Tundra trim, what changed this year, and which grade fits your budget and your trailer. Key Points: 2026 Toyota Tundra Trim Levels Every 2026 Tundra now carries a 32.2-gallon fuel tank. Toyota dropped the smaller 22.5-gallon tank, so even the base SR goes farther between fill-ups on US 70. The SR5 tows the most in the lineup. When properly equipped, the 2026 Tundra SR5 is rated to tow up to 12,000 lbs, more than any trim above it. Hybrid power is available on five trims. The i-FORCE MAX is optional on the Limited, Platinum, and 1794 Edition and standard on the TRD Pro and Capstone. 2026 Toyota Tundra Trim Levels at a Glance: Prices and Powertrains for New Bern Truck Shoppers Ten configurations across seven trims blur together fast on a spec sheet. Here's the full lineup in one place, with current builds on our Toyota Tundra lineup in New Bern page. Trim Powertrain Cab Style Starting MSRP SR i-FORCE V6 (348 hp) Double Cab, CrewMax $41,260 SR5 i-FORCE V6 (389 hp) Double Cab, CrewMax $46,510 Limited i-FORCE V6 (389 hp) CrewMax $54,860 Limited i-FORCE MAX Hybrid (437 hp) CrewMax $58,560 Platinum i-FORCE V6 (389 hp) CrewMax $63,695 1794 Edition i-FORCE V6 (389 hp) CrewMax $64,380 Platinum i-FORCE MAX Hybrid (437 hp) CrewMax 4x4 $70,605 1794 Edition i-FORCE MAX Hybrid (437 hp) CrewMax 4x4 $71,305 TRD Pro Hybrid (437 hp) CrewMax 4x4 $72,565 Capstone Hybrid (437 hp) CrewMax 4x4 $80,800 Starting MSRP excludes the $2,095 delivery, processing, and handling fee, plus taxes, title, registration, and dealer charges. Performance figures are manufacturer estimates and vary by configuration. Contact Toyota of New Bern to confirm current pricing and availability. A few patterns jump out right away. The base SR runs a 348-hp tune of the i-FORCE V6, so stepping up to the SR5 adds 41 horsepower along with the extra features. The SR5 also out-tows the $80,800 Capstone, which tops out at an estimated 10,340 lbs. And only the SR and SR5 offer the shorter Double Cab body style. What's New on the 2026 Toyota Tundra? The 2026 Toyota Tundra makes a 32.2-gallon fuel tank standard on every grade, adds Shale premium textured leather-trimmed seats to the Capstone, and offers new IsoDynamic seats and an exclusive Wave Maker paint color on the TRD Pro. The TRD Rally package also gains an available TRD 3-inch lift kit and Tow Tech Package. IsoDynamic seats are suspension-equipped front seats that absorb trail shocks before they reach the driver. For Craven County drivers, though, the bigger standard tank is the update that matters most, especially when hurricane season sends everyone inland. i-FORCE or i-FORCE MAX: Which 2026 Tundra Powertrain Fits Your Drive? The i-FORCE is a 3.4L twin-turbo V6 that makes an estimated 389 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque on most trims (348 hp and 405 lb-ft on the SR). The i-FORCE MAX is a hybrid powertrain that pairs the same V6 with an electric motor for an estimated 437 hp and 583 lb-ft of torque. Both use a 10-speed automatic. The i-FORCE MAX's extra 104 lb-ft of torque shows up most when pulling a loaded trailer off a boat ramp, and 4x2 hybrid configurations earn an EPA-estimated 20 city/24 highway mpg. Still, the gas V6 holds the lineup's top tow rating. Tundra SR and SR5: Work-Ready Trucks for Eastern North Carolina The 2026 Toyota Tundra SR starts at $41,260 MSRP and covers the essentials: an 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, LED headlights, 18-inch steel wheels, and Toyota Safety Sense 2.5. Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 is a standard driver-assist suite that bundles a pre-collision system, lane departure alert, and full-speed dynamic radar cruise control. The 2026 Toyota Tundra SR5 starts at $46,510 MSRP. The SR5 adds 18-inch alloy wheels, a tow hitch receiver, an Integrated Trailer Brake Controller, and the lineup's highest tow rating of up to 12,000 lbs when properly equipped. For a Havelock contractor or a family trailering a sailboat to Oriental, the SR5 is the value sweet spot. Tundra Limited: Where Daily Comfort Takes a Real Step Up The 2026 Toyota Tundra Limited starts at $54,860 MSRP, and it's the trim where the cabin changes character. A 14-inch touchscreen replaces the 8-inch unit, 20-inch alloy wheels fill the wheel wells, and heated and ventilated front seats come standard. Anyone who has sat in a parked truck in a New Bern July knows ventilated seats earn their keep here. The Tundra Limited is also the first trim eligible for the i-FORCE MAX hybrid, starting at $58,560 MSRP. Tundra Platinum vs. 1794 Edition: Two Takes on a Premium Pickup The 2026 Toyota Tundra Platinum ($63,695 MSRP) and 2026 Toyota Tundra 1794 Edition ($64,380 MSRP) share nearly identical equipment, so the choice comes down to style. The Tundra Platinum leans modern, with dark-gray 20-inch wheels, a power tilt/slide panoramic roof, and leather-trimmed 10-way power-adjustable front seats. The Tundra 1794 Edition takes a Western route, pairing a Saddle Tan interior with American walnut wood-grain trim and machined-finish 20-inch wheels. The 1794 name honors the founding year of the Texas ranch where Toyota's San Antonio truck plant now stands. Both trims offer the i-FORCE MAX hybrid in 4x4 form. Tundra TRD Pro: Built for Sand, Mud, and Forest Roads The 2026 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro starts at $72,565 MSRP with the i-FORCE MAX hybrid standard. Toyota equips the TRD Pro with FOX shocks, a 1.1-inch front lift, 18-inch BBS forged wheels, Falken WILDPEAK all-terrain tires, a locking rear differential, and Multi-Terrain Select. New for 2026, TRD Pro buyers can add IsoDynamic seats and pick the exclusive Wave Maker paint. The TRD Pro is built for weekends on the sandy roads of the Croatan National Forest. Tundra Capstone: The Flagship of the 2026 Lineup The 2026 Toyota Tundra Capstone starts at $80,800 MSRP and carries the most comfort and technology in the Tundra lineup. The i-FORCE MAX hybrid comes standard, along with 22-inch chrome- and machined-finish wheels, power-deploying running boards, and a head-up display. For 2026, Capstone seats move to a new Shale premium textured leather trim. The Tundra Capstone suits buyers who want a pickup that feels like a luxury SUV and still tows up to an estimated 10,340 lbs. Which 2026 Toyota Tundra Trim Level Fits Your Life? The right Tundra depends on what you haul and how much comfort you want along the way: Budget-first work truck: The SR, with Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 standard. Towing a boat or camper most weekends: The SR5, rated up to 12,000 lbs when properly equipped. Long commutes and daily comfort: The Limited, with the hybrid available for extra torque. Premium cabin, modern look: The Platinum and its panoramic roof. Premium cabin, Western character: The 1794 Edition in Saddle Tan and walnut. Trails, sand, and backroads: The TRD Pro and its FOX suspension. Top-shelf luxury: The Capstone, the most loaded Tundra in the lineup.

Off-road SUV shopping usually means wading through a pile of trims, engine options, and marketing claims that all start to sound the same. The 2026 Toyota Land Cruiser cuts through that noise with a hybrid powertrain and real off-pavement hardware that most rivals only offer as an upgrade. The 2026 Toyota Land Cruiser starts at an estimated $59,095 MSRP and pairs a 326-horsepower hybrid powertrain with Crawl Control and Multi-Terrain Select as standard equipment, putting it ahead of the Lexus GX, Land Rover Defender, Jeep Wrangler, and Ford Bronco on price-to-capability terms. At Toyota of New Bern, we help drivers across New Bern, Havelock, Morehead City, and Jacksonville sort through exactly this kind of decision every week. This guide breaks down how the Land Cruiser stacks up against its closest rivals on power, space, and price, so you can walk in already knowing what matters for how you actually drive. Key Points: Toyota Land Cruiser vs the Competition The Land Cruiser undercuts the Lexus GX on price while trailing it only slightly on power. At an estimated $59,095 starting MSRP against the GX's roughly $68,335, the Land Cruiser saves buyers real money for 23 fewer horsepower. Hybrid efficiency sets the Land Cruiser apart from every rival on this list. An estimated 22 city and 25 highway MPG beats the Defender, Wrangler, and standard Bronco by a wide margin, without sacrificing off-road hardware. New Bern's coastal roads and boat ramps reward real cargo space. With 46.2 cubic feet behind the second row, the Land Cruiser out-hauls the Defender and edges out the Wrangler for weekend gear and storm-season supply runs. 2026 Toyota Land Cruiser vs. the Competition: At-a-Glance Every off-road SUV on this list claims serious capability. Here's how the numbers actually compare before we get into the details. Model Segment Standard Horsepower Starting MSRP 2026 Toyota Land Cruiser Midsize hybrid off-road SUV 326 hp ~$59,095 2026 Lexus GX 550 Midsize luxury off-road SUV 349 hp ~$68,335 2026 Land Rover Defender 110 Midsize luxury off-road SUV 296 hp (I6) ~$56,900 2026 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Compact/midsize off-road SUV 270–285 hp (V6/turbo-4) Varies by trim 2026 Ford Bronco Midsize off-road SUV 300 hp (standard) ~$42,790 Figures shown are manufacturer estimates and starting MSRP, excluding taxes, fees, and dealer charges. Pricing and specs vary by trim and change with production. Contact Toyota of New Bern for current availability and pricing. A few things jump out once you line these up side by side. The Land Cruiser is the only vehicle on this list that pairs a hybrid powertrain with genuine off-road hardware, which is why its fuel economy beats the field without giving up capability. The Wrangler technically starts cheaper on paper, but its base trims lack the Land Cruiser's standard Crawl Control and locking-differential-level traction control. And while the Bronco's base MSRP looks like the bargain of the group, that number climbs fast once you start adding the off-road equipment the Land Cruiser already includes standard. For New Bern drivers cross-shopping this segment, that standard equipment gap often matters more than the sticker price alone. Toyota Land Cruiser vs. Lexus GX 550: Where the Land Cruiser Wins The Lexus GX 550 shares a platform cousin relationship with the Land Cruiser, and it shows. Its 3.4-liter twin-turbo V6 produces 349 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque, giving it an edge in towing at up to an estimated 9,096 lbs when properly equipped, and the GX offers available third-row seating for up to seven passengers. Even so, the Land Cruiser holds three advantages that matter for most New Bern drivers: Lower starting price. At an estimated $59,095 MSRP against the GX's roughly $68,335, the Land Cruiser saves buyers close to $9,000 before options. Significantly better fuel economy. The Land Cruiser's hybrid powertrain returns an estimated 22 city and 25 highway MPG, well ahead of the GX's estimated 15 city and 21 highway MPG. Standard hybrid efficiency, no trim upgrade required. Every 2026 Land Cruiser comes with the i-FORCE MAX hybrid system standard, so buyers aren't paying extra for the technology that saves them money at the pump. For drivers who don't need three rows or maximum towing, the Land Cruiser delivers most of the GX's capability for meaningfully less money and far fewer fuel stops. There's also a trim-level difference worth knowing: Lexus reserves its serious off-road hardware for the Overtrail trim, priced well above the base GX Premium, while every 2026 Land Cruiser gets real off-road equipment standard. Shop the two side by side on out-the-door cost for comparable capability, not just sticker price, and the gap in the Land Cruiser's favor gets even wider. Toyota Land Cruiser vs. Land Rover Defender 110: Where the Land Cruiser Wins Both the Land Cruiser and the Land Rover Defender 110 built their reputations on decades of real-world off-road use, not marketing copy. The Defender counters with nearly nine inches of ground clearance, adjustable air suspension, and an available third row. Still, the Land Cruiser holds real advantages of its own: Dramatically more cargo space. The Land Cruiser's 46.2 cubic feet of standard cargo room dwarfs the Defender's 15.6 cubic feet behind the rear seats, a difference that matters for anyone hauling boat gear or storm-season supplies. A hybrid powertrain the Defender doesn't offer. The Defender's engine lineup returns an estimated 19 MPG combined, while the Land Cruiser's hybrid system delivers noticeably better efficiency without sacrificing power. Off-road technology standard, not trim-gated. Crawl Control and Multi-Terrain Select come standard on every Land Cruiser trim, while comparable Defender capability often requires stepping up to a higher trim level. For New Bern drivers who want Defender-level presence without the higher trims needed to unlock comparable technology, the Land Cruiser makes a strong case. It's also worth noting the Land Cruiser's 31-degree approach angle and front stabilizer bar disconnect, hardware built for the sandy boat ramps and washed-out backroads around New Bern, terrain the Defender's street-tuned base trims aren't set up to handle without stepping up in price. And with only two trims to compare instead of six, deciding what you're actually paying for is a lot more straightforward with the Land Cruiser. Toyota Land Cruiser vs. Jeep Wrangler Rubicon: Where the Land Cruiser Wins The Wrangler Rubicon leans hard into pure trail performance, with solid front and rear axles, locking differentials, and disconnecting sway bars that make it a serious rock-crawler. Ground clearance can climb past 9 inches, and the Xtreme Recon package pushes it even higher. The Land Cruiser answers with advantages that matter more for everyday driving: More standard power. The Land Cruiser's 326 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque beat the Wrangler's V6 (285 hp) and turbo-four (270 hp), the two engines available on most four-door Rubicon trims. Considerably more cargo space. At 46.2 cubic feet standard and 82.1 cubic feet with the rear seats folded, the Land Cruiser out-hauls the Wrangler's 31.7 and 72.4 cubic feet. Hybrid fuel economy the Wrangler doesn't match. No four-door Wrangler Rubicon trim offers a hybrid powertrain, leaving the Land Cruiser well ahead on estimated MPG. For drivers who want serious trail capability without giving up comfort, cargo room, or fuel economy on the drive home, the Land Cruiser closes the gap the Wrangler leaves open. There's a daily-driving cost to the Wrangler's trail-first design, too: its removable doors and roof panels trade away some of the sealed-cabin quiet and weather protection the Land Cruiser keeps standard. For the daily commute into New Bern between weekend trail runs, that difference shows up every single day, not just off the pavement. Toyota Land Cruiser vs. Ford Bronco: Where the Land Cruiser Wins The Ford Bronco's appeal starts with its lower base price and its removable doors and roof panels, and the range-topping Bronco Raptor adds a 418-horsepower twin-turbo V6 for serious trail speed. Once you look past the base sticker price, though, the Land Cruiser pulls ahead: More standard horsepower. The Land Cruiser's 326 horsepower beats the standard Bronco's 300 horsepower, and it gets there with a hybrid powertrain instead of a larger engine. Better fuel economy across the board. An estimated 22 city and 25 highway MPG beats the standard Bronco's 18 city and 21 highway MPG. More cargo space, standard. The Land Cruiser's 46.2 cubic feet and 82.1 cubic feet maximum both beat the Bronco's 35.6 and 77.6 cubic feet. A more direct price-to-capability comparison. Matching the Bronco Raptor's power means spending upward of $80,000, well above the Land Cruiser's starting price with comparable off-road hardware already standard. For New Bern drivers who want real off-road capability without paying Raptor-level prices to get it, the Land Cruiser offers a more direct path there. The Land Cruiser nameplate also carries more than seven decades of history built specifically around long-distance, go-anywhere reliability, a track record the Bronco's shorter modern run hasn't had the same time to build. That history matters most for buyers who plan to keep a vehicle for the long haul rather than trade it in after a few seasons. Which Off-Road SUV Fits Your Life? The right pick depends on what you're actually doing with the vehicle most days: Need three-row seating and maximum towing: The Lexus GX 550 handles bigger loads and more passengers. Want a British heritage design with air suspension flexibility: The Land Rover Defender delivers a distinctive look and adjustable ride height. Chasing pure trail performance and open-air driving: The Jeep Wrangler and Ford Bronco offer removable tops and hardcore off-road hardware. Want hybrid efficiency, real cargo space, and off-road capability without compromise: The Toyota Land Cruiser covers the widest range of everyday needs. None of these SUVs is a bad choice. The difference comes down to which trade-offs fit your driving, your budget, and how often you actually leave the pavement.
