Toyota Previews a Baby Land Cruiser EV SUV

• Toyota showed off the Compact Cruiser EV concept today, which channels the essence of the Land Cruiser into a smaller package.

• Toyota didn't reveal any specifications about the electric powertrain, but the Compact Cruiser looks properly prepared for the outdoors.

• There's no word on when, or if, the Compact Cruiser EV will reach production, but Toyota has teased a compact off-roader in the past with the FT-4X concept.

The Toyota Land Cruiser may have departed the U.S. market (unless you count its Lexus sibling), but it appears that Toyota is looking to bring back its ethos in the form of a small EV crossover. This Compact Cruiser EV concept car revealed during Toyota's presentation about its future EV plans looks like the Land Cruiser's mini-me and appears to capture a similar vibe as the popular Ford Bronco Sport.
