Although it has blue-collar roots dating back more than a half-century the 2022 Range Rover's high-end interior and first-class curb appeal are designed to attract wealthy, white-collar buyers. While its transformation has been decades in the making, this leather-lined limo has reached a point where it's nearly six-figure starting price seems an appropriate ask. The cabin features upscale finishes such as leather, wood, and thickly-piled carpeting. And there’s plenty of tech too. Buyers can choose either a turbocharged inline-six or a thundering 523-hp twin-turbo V-8 engine, but all models come standard with off-road-capable features, such as an all-wheel-drive system, a rear-wheel steering system, and an air suspension that can be raised for extra ground clearance. Few Range Rover owners would dare to venture too far from paved roads, but knowing you could if you wanted to is, in fact, a luxury.

Like the outgoing generation Range Rover, the new model offers a plush interior decked out with rich leathers and woods, but buyers who want a more sustainable cabin can opt for a new leather-free option, which subs-in wool or other textiles. The interior can be arranged to seat four, five, or seven depending on configuration and wheelbase. An optional motorized divider for the cargo area helps keep things from moving around too much during travel, and the Range Rover's split rear liftgate can be used as convenient and comfortable seating for outdoor events.

--2022 Toyota Land Cruiser --
While we wait to see what Toyota does with this new model on our shores, we can dive into the specs. It weighs a claimed 440 pounds less than its predecessor and uses two new engines: a gasoline twin-turbo 3.4-liter V-6 with 409 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque or a turbodiesel twin-turbo 3.3-liter V-6 with 304 hp and 516 pound-feet of torque. A ten-speed automatic transmission and—naturally—four-wheel drive are standard across the board.

The new design doesn't look radically different from the current model, but the front end has a more prominent grille and a snazzier lighting setup, while the rear has new taillights and a reshaped tailgate. Inside, the cabin benefits from a significant upgrade with a large tablet-style infotainment screen and a cleaner dashboard layout. Three rows of seats will be available, and the third row appears to fold into the floor—a change from the current model, which requires you to flip and fold the wayback seats up towards the windows for more cargo capacity.
We should hear more about Toyota's future plans for the Land Cruiser soon, and we're curious to see what happens—if anything—with the nameplate in the U.S.

    Once a wise man said: “A Range Rover will take you anywhere you want. A Land Cruiser will take you there and bring you back”

    There is no comparison between these two cars. Land Rover was created to be soft, provide means of protection and safety, and be very comfortable. As for Land Cruiser, it is manufactured to withstand harsh and difficult conditions and cross all roads. It is also distinguished by its durability, solidity and the quality of its materials.

  • @kbboy101
    If I were an executive, I would probably go for a Range Rover. However, if I have to drive or go offroad, I would prefer a Land Cruiser.
  • I like the style of the RR but the reliability is always going to be Toyota.

    I wish TLC will have EV-hybrid someday. I would definitely buy one after my RR Sport HSE P400e. My bucket lists: 1) Toyota Land Cruiser EV-hybrid 2) Porsche Cayenne EV-hydrid 3) Range Rover Sport HSE P400e hybrid = done 4) BMW X5 = done
