As of 4 April 2017 the longest driven journey is 741,065 km (460,476 miles) and was achieved by Emil and Liliana Schmid (Switzerland) who travelled across 186 countries in the same Toyota Land Cruiser in a journey that started on 18 October 1984 and is still ongoing.

The Schmids arranged for the 3rd rejuvenation of the Land Cruiser in East Malaysia in March 2017. The next destination will be Indonesia where they will visit new corners and new islands. They still have not decided what's afterwards.
