Toyota's in-house customization department just turned the new Land Cruiser into a Cyberpunk fan's dream vehicle.
Modellista has brought an ultra-rugged take on the popular SUV called the Overland Vision Concept to this year's SEMA Show in Las Vegas. The prototype comes loaded with all the off-roading gear and upgrades you can imagine, turning it into the sort of futuristic-looking bruiser you'd expect to see in a sci-fi thriller.

Toyota is thinking about bringing the Japan-based Modellista stateside making the Overland Vision Concept a true showcase vehicle. The automaker, like all its peers, already sells aftermarket parts, but Modellista's upgrades will give drivers the ability to customize their cars, SUVs and trucks like never before.
In the case of the Overland Vision Concept that means taking what was already a commanding SUV and turning it into an off-roader that looks like it would have no problem apocalyptic ruins. The concept features one of the most aggressive uses of body armor we've ever seen. The bumper, grille, fenders, side panels, and rear panel have all been bulked up with protective cladding. There's also headlight protection, cargo boxes everywhere there's room for one (including over the rear windows), and a roof rack. Most striking of all, though, may be the vehicle's light package that adds impossible-to-miss green LED accents to the front fascia and rear end.
The gear on display is mainly meant for the exterior, so there's no mention of any powertrain details. The 2025 Land Cruiser comes with a turbocharged inline-four assisted by two electric motors that makes a 326 hp and 465 ft lbs of torque. The setup is mated to an eight-speed automatic that divides up power between all four wheels. It can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in just 7.7 seconds, but, more importantly than that, it can tow up to 6,000 pounds.
The Overland Vision Concept isn't the only head-turning Land Cruiser that will be on display at SEMA, which runs through Friday, November 8. Toyota also brought an open-top truck version of the SUV to annual show, called the Calty Land Cruiser ROX. It is strictly a one-off at this point, but should Toyota ever decide to put the build into production we imagine there will be plenty of interested buyers out there.
