The US-bound 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser will strictly be sold as a two-row five-seater, but we noticed something odd about its trunk. In the press photos of the vehicle, we spotted a few peculiar features that hinted at the availability of a third row. These include cupholders, air vents, and USB-C points. After seeing the new Land Cruiser in person at a reveal event in Utah, we now know why those features are present. In other countries, the Land Cruiser will be sold as a seven-seater.
Looking at the press photos from Toyota’s global site, the interior of the new Land Cruiser (Land Cruiser Prado in some markets) can be seen with two additional seats behind the second row.
Rather than delete the cupholders, vents, and charging ports in the trunk, Toyota opted to save costs and leave them in. “Maybe customers will use them during a tailgate party,” a Toyota spokesperson told CarBuzz. We’re also sure the family dog will enjoy the air vents on a hot summer’s day.
