Toyota Land Cruiser 1958, Base & Special Editions

Since the 250 Series arrived, the 1958 has been the heritage-focused entry trim. It has round headlights, a classic-style grille, fabric seats, and simpler screens without giving up the hybrid powertrain or core 4WD hardware.

On the newer 250 Series, Land Cruiser is both the model name and the name of the more comfort-focused regular trim. It sits above the heritage-focused entry model and is sometimes labeled Base in vehicle listings.

On newer models, the 1958 has the simpler heritage look and cabin. The Land Cruiser trim adds rectangular headlights, upgraded seat trim, ventilated power front seats, a 12.3-inch touchscreen, extra terrain settings, and cameras that show nearby trail obstacles.

Yes. In the 250 Series, the 1958 and Land Cruiser grades use the same 326-horsepower turbocharged hybrid, full-time 4WD, and locking center and rear differentials. Moving up changes comfort, displays, lighting, and trail-view technology rather than basic power or traction hardware.

The 1958 is the simpler choice. It uses fabric-trimmed heated front seats and an 8-inch touchscreen, but it still includes wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, a heated steering wheel, and the main trail hardware.

The Land Cruiser grade is the comfort- and technology-focused pick. It adds power-adjustable heated and ventilated SofTex front seats, a 12.3-inch touchscreen, 10-speaker audio, more terrain settings, and trail-view cameras.

On the newer 250 Series, the Land Cruiser grade includes the Multi-Terrain Monitor, a camera system that shows the area around the SUV during low-speed trail driving. The 1958 has low-speed Crawl Control but not that trail-camera system.

Yes. The newer 1958 includes wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto through its 8-inch touchscreen. The Land Cruiser grade keeps wireless phone connection but moves to a larger 12.3-inch screen.

The 1958 uses round LED headlights and a heritage-style TOYOTA grille. The regular Land Cruiser grade uses rectangular LED headlights and adds color-selectable LED fog lights. The launch-only First Edition brought the round heritage look to a more fully equipped model.

The First Edition is the limited launch version of the 250 Series. It combines the regular Land Cruiser grade’s trail technology with leather seats, upgraded audio, a head-up display, digital rearview mirror, moonroof, round headlights, rock rails, and extra underbody protection.

The First Edition builds on the 250 Series Land Cruiser grade with more cabin equipment, round heritage headlights, rock rails, and added front underbody protection. Both have the same turbo-hybrid powertrain, full-time 4WD, trail cameras, and terrain controls.

Both the 1958 and First Edition use round heritage headlights and the same hybrid 4WD foundation, but their cabins are very different. The 1958 is deliberately simple with fabric seats and an 8-inch screen. The First Edition adds leather, premium audio, more displays, trail cameras, and extra body protection.

No. It was a limited launch trim for the 250 Series and appeared only for 2024, with 5,000 units planned for North America. From 2025 onward, the regular lineup consists of the 1958 and Land Cruiser grades.

The late 200 Series Heritage Edition is mainly a heritage-styled, recreation-focused version of the V8 Land Cruiser. It adds dark exterior details, vintage-style badges, and a distinct black interior while retaining the V8, full-time 4WD, trail controls, and well-equipped cabin.

No. The Heritage Edition belongs to the older 200 Series and uses a 5.7-liter V8. The First Edition launched the newer 250 Series with a turbo-hybrid powertrain. Both use retro styling, but they come from different generations and have different cabin, chassis, and trail technology.
