![]() The Lexus GX460, Land Cruiser Prado, and 4Runner were all built on the same platform and all built in the same factory in Japan. I am warming up to becoming a Toyota guy in the future if you can't tell I recognize the 4Runner likely won't be built in Japan but I'd be curious how much of a difference that would actually make on quality? But, I'm thinking that if the GX is just a 4Runner mechanically, and that is also a LC Prado mechanically, then the 4Runner is a better bet for the money. Lexus GX470 = Land Cruiser 200 series, or just a fancier Prado/4Runner?Īs a rig though I think it looks great - I love the styling of it. Lexus GX460 = Land Cruiser Prado? Toyota 4-Runner? I need some schooling in the platforms here. But, having been starved for in-the-flesh LCs for a long time here, and only ever seeing previous GX's in shiny flashy condition, I've not paid much attention to them. I won't hold my breath for Bronco/Wrangler/Grenadier hose out the interior, but it sure would be nice.Īre these are most similar to the LC Prado, or the full fledged Land Cruiser? I think that would be a deciding factor for me as I understand the LC Prado to be a good bit smaller in general, and it might be to small for what I like. I'm hoping that the Toyota version will be available without the adaptive dampeners on the GX and some other easier to clean and service features as opposed to a direct copy with almost no difference in price like the erstwhile 200 series/LX570. The 250 series GX/Prado platform is the only thing that makes sense for the NA Land Cruiser. While some have hoped that it would be a 70s Series, that's a complete fantasy. The rumors are that the NA Land Cruiser will be based off the GX since the 300 Series is not coming except as the LX600. If the price is right and the features (and in some cases lack thereof) are right, I'll very likely buy one (The Land Cruiser probably not the GX). The next question is where will the 2024 Land Cruiser go in the forums? Is it a Land Cruiser or is not a Land Cruiser since it will be on the GX/Prado/likely upcoming 4Runner platform. I won't hold my breath for Bronco/Wrangler/Grenadier hose out the interior, but it sure would be nice.
