The Toyota Land Cruiser has been in continuous production since 1951, making it one of the longest-running nameplate in the Toyota lineup. Originally developed for military and off-road applications, it evolved into a ladder-frame body-on-frame 4WD that spans utility, commercial, and luxury segments. The J40 series (1960–1984) is the longest-running single series by production span. The J80 (1990–1997) and J100 (1998–2007) series are the most common in export markets for their combined off-road capability and comfort. The J200 (2007–2021) introduced the V8 petrol and diesel engines in a more luxury-oriented package. Production figures: JAMA records show the J70 series alone has exceeded 1 million units across its 40-year run.
