JAKARTA - After a prolonged speculation, Toyota finally confirmed that the iconic name "Land Cruiser" will be resold in North America.

In 2021, Land Cruiser fans were last able to buy the car before its production was stopped. Meanwhile, in other countries, LC300's new generation Land Cruiser, which is synonymous with Lexus LX, was already available, but Toyota USA chose not to import the model for reasons of overestimated costs and declining Land Cruiser sales at the time.

On Tuesday, June 13, the Japanese manufacturer announced the return of the Land Cruiser via a post on the United States Toyota Instagram account. The post features a badge that adopts the iconic retro theme of the "Land Cruiser" model and is accompanied by the caption "Nothing better than the comeback story. The legend is back".

According to Carbuzz's analysis on June 13, the latest Land Cruiser for the North American market is likely to have a base and design similar to the latest SUV from its brother, the Lexus GX. The Lexus GX has a sturdy design and a box with a more compact dimension. However, it is estimated that Land Cruiser will have a wider design to suit buyers' preferences there.
