Verdict

Buy with care

4x4 à châssis séparé, lancé en 2024 avec un 2.8 diesel de 204 ch et une boîte automatique à 8 rapports, puis une variante micro-hybride 48 V. Le modèle est trop récent : aucune panne ni statistique de fiabilité publiée n'a été trouvée, et sa note Euro NCAP n'a pas été trouvée. Il se vend autour de 80 000 à 115 000 euros d'occasion selon les annonces relevées.

You are importing the car to:

Import penalty (malus) in France

  • Emissions of the versions in this guide: 270 g CO₂/km (check the value on the car's registration certificate).
  • The CO₂ malus follows the scale of the year the vehicle was first registered, in France or abroad (WLTP or NEDC scale depending on its registration certificate).
  • For an imported used car, it is reduced by a flat-rate discount based on its age in months (scheme in force since 1 March 2025). The weight malus also applies on first registration in France.
  • The malus is zero for a car more than fifteen years old or first registered before 1 January 2015.

Check an imported car's history

HistoVec only covers the vehicle's life in France. For a car coming from abroad, a VIN-based report helps spot inconsistent mileage or a reported accident.

Known faults

Recent model: not enough hindsight yet (years, mileage) for faults to be publicly documented, so reliability is not rated. This is no guarantee: have the car checked all the more carefully before buying.

Manufacturer recalls

See the official list on RappelConso (new tab) (French government recall site: category “Automobiles et moyens de déplacement”, search “Toyota Land Cruiser”). A dealer for the brand can also check, using the vehicle identification number (VIN), that recalls have been carried out.

Recalls published in France (RappelConso)

  • 10 August 2026 — En raison d'un problème logiciel, l'unité de commande d'assistance au stationnement qui fonctionne avec le moniteur de vue panoramique (pvm) pour afficher l'image de la caméra de recul peut geler brièvement lors de la sauvegarde si la marche arrière est sélectionnée peu de temps après le démarrage du véhicule. En outre, la caméra de recul peut ne pas apparaître la prochaine fois que le véhicule est démarré si le véhicule est allumé et éteint à nouveau dans un court laps de temps. Cela peut augmenter le risque d'accident avec une personne ou un autre véhicule lors d'un événement de soutien. Official notice

Inspection checklist

Things to check

  • Faire vérifier avec le numéro de série les rappels éventuels auprès d'un concessionnaire Toyota.
  • Contrôler le carnet d'entretien et la garantie constructeur restante : le modèle est récent.
  • Vérifier le fonctionnement de la transmission intégrale, de la gamme courte et des blocages de différentiel.
  • Essayer la boîte automatique à 8 rapports à froid et à chaud.
  • Confirmer sur la carte grise la version (204 ch ou 48 V), le nombre de places et la finition.

Questions to ask the seller

  • Quelle version exactement (2.8 D-4D 204 ou 48 V) et quelle finition ?
  • Des rappels ou campagnes ont-ils été réalisés ? Avez-vous les justificatifs ?
  • Le véhicule a-t-il été utilisé en tout-terrain ou pour de la traction de remorque ?

Test-drive tip: read the fault codes

A warning light that is off proves nothing: a fault may have been cleared just before the viewing. A Bluetooth OBD2 scanner, plugged in under the steering wheel and read on your phone, shows stored codes and whether all emissions readiness tests have run since the last reset.

Before you buy: check and equip

Check the history

Before paying, check the administrative status (lien, objection, declared claims) and the mileage recorded at the roadworthiness test.

Read fault codes

An OBD scanner plugged in under the steering wheel shows stored fault codes, even with warning lights off: useful during the test drive.

Parts and maintenance

Compare prices of parts for the Toyota Land Cruiser 250 (timing, brakes, filters) to estimate the repairs to plan for.

Insure the car

Insurance prices vary widely from one model to another: get a quote before signing.
