Short answer. Toyota Land Cruiser rental in Baku starts at 65 USD (110.5 AZN) a day. The 100 series is the entry point. The 200 starts at 110 USD (187 AZN). Both are automatic and both have real four wheel drive. Both are worth the fuel in snow, on gravel and on long mountain days.

What is the difference between the 100 and the 200?

The 100 and the 200 differ in age, comfort and fuel, in that order.

The 100 is older and cheaper, and it still climbs anything here.

The 200 is quieter on the motorway and better equipped inside.

For a long day at 110 km/h, the 200 is the easier car.

Which trips is it the right car for?

The Land Cruiser is right for Khinalig, Shahdag in winter, Lahij and Ismayilli.

Do you actually need one?

You do not actually need one for paved highways. A saloon does Quba, Gabala and Sheki.

Snow, mud and loose gravel are what make it worth the money.

Groups also take it for the space rather than the drive.

Our mountain guide explains where clearance matters.

What does it cost to run?

A Land Cruiser costs about 154 AZN in fuel per 1,000 km. Azerbaijani prices do not soften that.

AI-92 costs 1.10 AZN a litre and AI-95 costs 1.60 AZN.

At 14 litres per 100 km, 1,000 km costs about 154 AZN.

A small car covers the same distance for about 66 AZN.

Our fuel guide has the full table.

How does it park in the city?

Badly in central Baku, and that is the honest downside.

Streets near the Old City are narrow and spaces are short.

Paid parking costs 1 to 2 AZN an hour through the app.

Many guests take the Land Cruiser for the mountain days only.

Our parking guide explains the zones and the app.

What about winter?

An Azerbaijani winter is where the car makes the most sense.

We fit winter tyres from November at no extra cost.

Four wheel drive helps you move, and tyres are what stop you.

Our winter guide lists what changes above 1,500 metres.

What are the terms?

The minimum Baku rental is two days, with no mileage limit.

ICBARI cover is in the price, and full cover is optional.

The full cover excess is 300 to 500 EUR, depending on the car.

Delivery to your hotel costs 10 USD (17 AZN), or 15 USD (25.5 AZN) to the airport.

One question comes up more often than any other.

People ask whether the 100 series feels old inside.

The older car does, and that is the trade for the lower rate.

Mechanically it climbs the same roads as the newer car.

What comes with a Land Cruiser?

A Land Cruiser comes with unlimited mileage and winter tyres from November.

  • Deposit 200 to 300 USD (340–510 AZN), depending on the car. Cash or a card block.
  • No mileage limit anywhere inside Azerbaijan.
  • Minimum rental 2 days.
  • Fuel comes back at the level you got it.
  • ICBARI insurance is in the price. Full cover with a 300 to 500 EUR excess is optional.
