Toyota Land Cruiser vs. Land Rover Range Rover Review

Utility
The Toyota Land Cruiser will most definitely prove friendlier than the Land Rover Range Rover for those of you with frequent child-cargo. The Toyota Land Cruiser is a better choice than the Land Rover Range Rover with respect to transporting cargo, especially if you often need to carry a lot of cargo or sizeable animals. There's little the Toyota can tow that the Land Rover Range Rover cannot.

Dimensions
The Land Cruiser's tank is roughly the same size as the Land Rover Range Rover's, though the Land Rover's is a tad larger. The Toyota Land Cruiser and the Land Rover Range Rover compete for the same parking spaces.

Convenience
You definitely won't have to visit your friendly gas station more often with the Toyota Land Cruiser than with the Land Rover, as both offer comparable mileage ranges.

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs roughly the same to get the Toyota to the dealership as the Land Rover Range Rover. The Land Rover Range Rover doesn't pale in comparison to the Toyota Land Cruiser with respect to gas mileage. The Land Rover Range Rover is considerably pricier than the Toyota Land Cruiser regarding MSRP.

Handling
With their comparable turning radii, the Land Cruiser and the Land Rover most definitely handle roughly the same into and out of tight spots.

Drivetrain
The Land Rover Range Rover's engine is substantially smaller than the Toyota Land Cruiser's. Bear in mind that smaller engines can be stressed more; on the flip side, smaller engines typically get better gas mileage. Torque equals pickup, and the Toyota Land Cruiser will have picked up and gone by the time the Land Rover Range Rover finally gets moving. The Land Rover Range Rover could learn a lesson or two from the Toyota Land Cruiser as far as torque.

Comfort
Taller drivers will substantially enjoy the extra head room in the Land Rover Range Rover's front cabin compared to the Toyota Land Cruiser. While the rear of the Toyota Land Cruiser offers a bit more head- and leg-room than the Land Rover, there frankly isn't much of a difference.

Warranty
The basic after-sale protection that comes with the Toyota Land Cruiser isn't quite as generous as the Land Rover Range Rover's.
