Drivetrain
The Land Cruiser and the Mercedes-Benz M-Class have similar-sized engines, with a slight advantage to the Mercedes-Benz M-Class.

Convenience
You'll very likely take the Toyota for a fill-up approximately as often as the Mercedes-Benz M-Class.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Mercedes-Benz offers a bit more head room than the Toyota Land Cruiser, there honestly isn't much of a difference. The ampler interior dimensions of the Mercedes-Benz M-Class make it roomier for your passengers than the Toyota Land Cruiser.

The Toyota is substantially more ponderous than the Mercedes-Benz M-Class. The Mercedes-Benz M-Class's tank is roughly the same size as the Toyota's, though the Land Cruiser's is slightly larger. The Land Cruiser rides lower than the Mercedes-Benz M-Class, which is a good thing for its center of gravity and ease of access. The Mercedes-Benz M-Class and the Land Cruiser compete for the same parking spaces.

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. The Toyota Land Cruiser is substantially cheaper to get to the dealership than the Mercedes-Benz.
