LandCruiser’s next step

New chapter for one of Toyota’s most iconic brands as 300 Series lands

NATHAN TAYLOR

Toyota has launched its all-new LandCruiser 300 Series, kicking off the next chapter in the legendary off-roader’s storied history.

Newly constructed from the ground up, the all-new 300 Series takes the capability, durability and reliability of the iconic LandCruiser nameplate to new levels, while also making advancements in safety, comfort, performance and technology.

Key upgrades include a new 3.3-litre V6 twin-turbo diesel engine, a bold new exterior design underpinned by the Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA) platform, and advanced driver assistance technologies to provide superb on-road performance and unmatched off-road capability.

The LandCruiser 300 Series range also offers customers more choice than ever, with two new flagship variants – the luxury Sahara ZX and the off-road-focused GR Sport – joining the core GX, GXL, VX and Sahara range.

The Sahara ZX offers unmatched levels of comfort and style for LandCruiser buyers, while the GR Sport is the most off-road capable LandCruiser yet with its world-first electronic Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (e-KDSS) stabiliser bar control system, and front and rear locking differentials as standard.

The LandCruiser 300 Series can be identified by its strong design language, combining trademark LandCruiser features with a new, powerful and emotive styling that is equal parts form and function.

Inside, the LandCruiser’s cabin blends luxurious style with functionality, and increased space and flexibility, ensuring long and taxing journeys through the Australian wilderness are done in utmost comfort.

Toyota Australia Vice President Sales, Marketing and Franchise Operations, Sean Hanley, said the all-new LandCruiser 300 Series would further strengthen the reputation of the LandCruiser in the tough Australian conditions.

“Ever since it was imported into Australia to work on the Snowy Mountains Hydro Scheme in the 1950s, the LandCruiser has become synonymous with tackling the harshest conditions our country has to offer,” he said.

“Equally at home in the school car park or the middle of the outback, the new 300 Series LandCruiser takes the comfort, safety and off-road ability of our flagship SUV to new heights.

“We fully expect this new generation to carry on the stellar legacy of the LandCruiser in Australia.”

The LandCruiser 300 Series is expected to be a big seller.
