Toyota's 75th Anniversary Land Cruiser Leaves Us Wanting A Bit More
Source ↗ 👁 0 💬 0
The Land Cruiser is one of Toyota's oldest nameplates still in use, dating back to 1954. However, the company actually introduced the SUV in 1951, but at the time, the automaker branded it as the Toyota "Jeep" BJ. Willys Overland wasn't a fan of Toyota using the moniker of the still-fairly-new civilian Jeep that had only arrived in the late 1940s, so the Japanese automaker changed the name to Land Cruiser.
