In its fourth generation since 2009 for the 2010 model year, the J150 is not just the smaller brother of the J200. But what the mid- and full-size models have in common is their world-class reliability and capability to go off the beaten track if the situation calls for off-road action.
Even though the Land Cruiser Prado and Land Cruiser V8 have been slowly but steadily getting more luxurious with the passing of time, Toyota didn’t forget that both models are also fit for work. Addressing a relatively small share of the commercial vehicle market, the Prado-based Land Cruiser Commercial Utility is now available to order in the United Kingdom.
Available in short- (three-) and long-wheelbase (five-door) configurations, the LCCU is priced from £27,546 and £28,509, respectively. Sitting alongside the 2018 lineup, the utilitarian workhorses benefit from refreshed styling inside and out plus all the technological trickery you would expect from a utility vehicle at this price point.
Don’t be fooled by the 17-inch steel wheels because once you hop in the cabin, you’ll be greeted by a plethora of airbags, tire pressure warning system, aux-in and USB ports, and up to 2,216 liters of cargo capacity. The short-wheelbase model is rated at 1,574 liters. As for maximum payload, Toyota quotes 593 and 756 kilograms, respectively.
Customers who would rather use the Land Cruiser Commercial Utility for towing can rest assured if the trailer weighs no more than three tonnes. The long-wheelbase model can be furthered by the Trailer Sway Control system, which keeps things nice and steady regardless of what you're towing.
Automatic headlights, fog lights, roof rails, smart entry, vehicle stability control, active traction control, and multi-terrain ABS are also standard, proving that the surface on which it’s driven isn’t a problem for the Land Cruiser Commercial Utility.
Just like the passenger-oriented version (£33,955 for the entry-level model), the LCCU features four-wheel drive, an automatic transmission, and a 2.8-liter turbo diesel under the hood. The engine is rated at 177 horsepower and 450 Nm (332 pound-feet) of torque, translating to a top speed of 108 miles per hour.
