TOYOTA Land Cruiser “Shonan no Kaze: Adventurer” Version

AdventurerShonan no Kaze

After posing the question “What is a Land Cruiser?” at the beginning of the commercial, it cuts to striking footage of the Dakar Rally, known as the world’s toughest motorsport.

The determined looks of the drivers and mechanics are unforgettable—and incredibly cool.

The CM’s background music features Shonan no Kaze’s newly written track “Bōkensha” (Adventurer).

Its powerful, encouraging lyrics—so in tune with the commercial’s theme—are a major draw.
