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 Land-
Cruiser in Australia.”
