Is the 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser a Ford Bronco Killer?

Toyota's renowned off-road SUV is making a comeback. Are there any genuine new competitors for the Ford Bronco?

After discontinuing the Land Cruiser moniker, Toyota brought it back a few years later.

[{"selector":"#anim-8d9eaa4c-ed12-4583-a62b-136d99b64d6f [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-14.845949114181108%, 0, 0) translate(-25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-58a83014-5318-452d-8cf9-d14b48def4dd","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-115.33547%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3cd7c95b-27b7-4b74-81ac-bfe7f4af33e3","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-93db25f1-3168-46c5-81f2-784dba464db5","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Why was the firm so quick to discontinue the well-liked model, and how does it compare to rivals?

[{"selector":"#anim-f9ea5018-9b5c-459e-821a-ba80c563bb29 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-14.845372507661622%, 0, 0) translate(-25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a28ace45-2ffa-4dc5-86a1-45d5c64dc05e","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-116.29393%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ca6a99dd-a253-4df3-968c-11e5b5a78ee2","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f23ad035-2758-46c3-8368-a9d3d9fc5c73","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Once the new Land Cruiser enters the market, Ford may face some severe competition.

There is a great deal of interest in the 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser.

First off, although the Land Cruiser moniker has always received a lot of love,

its return to the market arguably makes the off-road SUV more desired than ever.
