They just can't stop turning everything into a giant box, how is this retro?

The massive windows, steeper windshield, interior cloth choice on the 1958 model, the round headlights in the front, the side profile, the silhouette, the body shape.

Boxy SUVs are a much better use of space. I’ll take a boxy SUV over a “coup” SUV. As well, while this is technically a Land Cruiser Prado for other world markets it is smaller than our last gen Land Cruiser in the states. So less of a giant box technically than the last model. It did however lose the split tailgate which is/was my favorite feature. 😔
