No new model in the past decade has come close to generating as much interest as the new 300 Series LandCruiser.
Thanks to its Australian media launch, we can finally tell you what the big Toyota LC300 LandCruiser 4x4 five and seven-seat SUV finished product is like to drive on and off road, dissect the whole Australian line-up, and go through all the details we were still missing when we published the great Byron Mathioudakis’ prototype review back in August.
Is the big LandCruiser still the best all-rounder on the market and does it live up to those massive expectations? Would you have it over a Y62 Nissan Patrol or the upcoming Lexus LX600? Watch on - and let us know your thoughts in the comments section.

I’m not in a rush to get out my 200 into a 300 series. 11 years and 230km on the clock with a lot of heavy towing and not one issue with the old girl, and I’m still on my second set if tyres😳 she’s been serviced religiously by Toyota and runs better than a Swiss watch.
Typical landcruiser
My Landcruiser Prado is on its 6th year and looks like i bought it last year, no hurry as well for the 2024 J250.
Really liked how you went through the models. Best I've seen yet. Thank you.
Absolutely fantastic review 👌. Cover everything and left no stone unturned. Saw other Australian car review channels but no one covers it comprehensively the way you just did. Excellent job Malcolm 👌
Thanks very much Muhammad. That means a lot given it was put together under trying conditions. Cheers, Mal Flynn
Yet no mention that the 3rd row was so low to the floor that your average Shiela would be able to rest her boobs on her knees! Kids only back there, unless your a masochist or vertically challenged individual.
Thanks a lot for this good review.
Great and fair review, thank you.
I can’t wait to get in one.
Saw the Aussie number plate and just knew it was going to be a solid review!
Good review buddy.
Wow best review ever, I learn a lot from this all new land cruiser Tnx Carsguide, I watched every toyota and lexus from your channel
Here from the Philippines
One piece tailgate not good for camping. The lower split one is awesome as a table and just organising stuff.
I have the 200 Sahara with split tailgate. I use the lower split all the time, to sit on, as a work bench, as a table etc. etc. etc. The one piece tailgate on the 300 would absolutely stop me from buying the vehicle. What was Toyota thinking!!!
@@rodneyrowell7743 Complexity, cost. Though it looks like it could have been split from the exterior design, and may be that they will consider it for the future.
Amazing car ,but I am extremely disappointed with tailgate and 3rd row,unusable
Will be even better when the electric motor fails
@@dave216dx 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for the instruction and review. we have paid the deposit for vx, but have to wait for 12 months.
Thank you !! Whar do you suggest between lc300 and the Prado which is better ? Im undecided .
So by the time I load the family in a long with all the other items needed for a trip away etc then hook up the van I feel I have exceeded the vehicle's load capacity limit. Just have to decide who or what to leave behind.
Your Cinematorgrapher and color grader need chance in Hollywood. It is crispy video.✌🔥
Colour grader?
@@aussieas6655 yeah man - like this piece of iconic sepia colour grading. czcams.com/video/q0FrZMeV4Wo/video.html
Curious to know where the 1.5 points were lost. a rating of 8.5 / 10. What was lacking and where to lose points? How long do you think until a Cruiser VS Patrol review available ?
I’m really surprised the don’t have a lot of the towing tech out there now (eg RAM, Silverado GLS) also very surprised how bad the third row legroom is for one of the biggest large SUV out there (and foot room for 2nd row pax under the front seat looks tight). Also shelf have wireless CarPlay these days and on Sahara model and above for the $. None the less look forward to test driving it.
Pretty standard video, but I can't stand the all around positivity, everything about this NEW and IMPROVED is BETTER, nothing to criticise. The removal of the split tailgate, beloved by all, is a huge negative, yet you manage to spin it in a positive light, to please the manufacturer, I guess. Are you making the review for the consumer, or is this a PR piece for Toyota? “When it's up, it makes for a handy shelter.“ That could be said about the 200 as well, its tailgate could also go up and be a handy shelter. Great seal against dust? I guess I better tell all the offroaders that own the 200 that they've been doing it wrong. Completely new engines, architecture, smaller fuel tank, 12+ years since the last model and all they manage to do is shave a few 10s of kg and 0.6l/100km better fuel economy “but it could be a lot worse“ ... for what? You lose the V8 for 0.6l/100km, for a new engine with unknown reliability? No thanks.
they are soo expensive yet they have such a long waiting list. people out there have a lot of money
People in sydney and possibly Melbourne seem to have endless amounts of money
@@mahjonglivestreaming4535 yeah
Would rather buy a Horse hair Mattress.
Old geezer's with big super payouts looking for their last car.
I travel the bush and live in a regional area. Many farmers and regional business owners seem quite happy to buy 200 series Cruisers at $100-130k.
The price rises, average to poor equipment for the price, short service intervals and higher service cost and low hanging diffs killing clearance doesn't seem worry them. Not for me.
Never had a barn door to lose. Those are on the prado 150’s and GX 460’s. 100’s and 200’s had a split rear tailgate
In some markets Tim, but Australia has had barn doors on the base GX throughout the 100 and 200 Series generations. Cheers, Mal Flynn
@@carsguide ok great, thanks for that info! 👍🏻
Barn doors on 100 series base models
Brilliant review of the model variance, Mal. Best one I'm seen to date. 👍 I have to say, I've never seen the GXL variant from any previous LandCruiser models look more like a poverty pack than it does in the LC300 (referring to the front). From how it looks from the outside, its hard to believe it cost $109K drive away.. And you have to go to the Sahara & above to get a HUD? Really Toyota? C'mon Toyota, nowadays that should be a standard feature. And if Hyundai/Kia can fit a wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on their Sub $40k models, surely you can fit one in your $100+K LandCruisers? I'm both loving it and feeling like I'm going to get ripped off at the same time.
Onya Hammer, thanks for your support. Yeah, some very interesting value elements compared with other brands. Overall, it's an astounding achievement though. Cheers, Mal Flynn
Maybe once the GXL is fitted out with bar work and additional gear, the poverty park look will disappear.
2 turbos in a hot V configuration. That'll really stretch the cooling system when trekking in 40 + degree heat.
That's why they do years of testing in Australia.
Get the Turbo Diesel.
When it came time to buy a new 4wd l had my heart set on an LC200. My previous vehicle was a 2006 Jeep Commander with 350,00k's on the clock, only had a couple of small issues with it, otherwise totally reliable. It ran a Mercedes Benz Turbo V6 and averaged about 12 liter per 100km. When l looked at what was out there in the way of a large family 4wd's the LC200 just didn't stack up. If l had the time l could list all the issues. But one of the major ones was the third row seats, which on such a big vehicle were useless. Apart from taking up all that space in the cargo bay, you couldn't get in and out easily and when you did, because the third row seats were almost flat on the floor as an adult your knees were up around your head. Which means it's pretty much useless for long trips even for teenager's. Of course a lot of people don't use the 3rd row, so this doesn't matter. l hope toyota have fixed this up in the LC300. l have no issue buying a well designed V6 over a V8, just don't know about the Hot V configuration. In the end l bought a TI Nissan patrol and put some of the money towards improving the economy. It now has a Unchip, Air intake and Torqit exhaust installed and is averaging 14.4litres per 100kms. On the highway it now goes below 10 litres per 100kms. The car is a beast has 360KW and 670NM of torque. If you don't drive it like you stole it, and for $35K less than a comparable Toyota it is a steal, then it won't suck petrol and you will get economy that is similar or better than an LC200 however l think the LC300 is going to do a better job here. However Toyota has jacked up the price again another 10k again. l can no longer see the value of the Landcruiser compared to other offerings and think when the Ineos Grenadier comes out Toyota and possibly Nissan will loose sakes to it. I'm not a Toyota or Nissan fanboy. If you do your research on the net you will find that the Patrol is equally as capable as the LC200. Now would Like to see how it stacks up now to the LC300. The interior is certainly miles better than the Patrol but l can forgive this for $40-$45K price difference.
They didn't solve the 3 row issue at all, just watch Paul Maric's review, it's hilarious.
The Patrol is my dream car, I wholeheartedly agree with your decision.
The new Land cruiser has improved a lot in terms of its design very beautiful. I am going with GR
If the prado come out with the 3.3 v6 turbo diesel as the story goes atm it may mean less sales on the 300. The vx prado isn't a bad thing and with the stated 227kw and 700nm it'll be a nice tow. 👍
can you get the kdss suspension added to the GXL like you could with the 200 series???
no I checked with Toyota
This car will be a game changer!!
For shopping trips....
@@goverat oh well, im off to eb games in my 300 to swap my copy of Fortnite.
For Price
I think people misunderstand v6 or simply doesn’t know it and how we are shifting from v8. But we will learn gradually.
I want the Australian Army stripped version. With the vinyl floor and snorkel.
How much will it cost to buy one? Price please.
Adblu?
Gross Comb?
How far away is the Hybrid version of the Land Cruiser?
Thank you
Toyota is yet to officially reveal its plans for an LC300 Hybrid, although one is expected at some stage. Stay tuned to CarsGuide.com.au as we learn more!
Are the centre control buttons backlit? Glare looks like it'll be an issue using piano black combined with that brushed silver. 7:05
No ISOFIX points in row three, and only two in row two. Sorry, parents of triplets, it's a Kia Carnival or Hyundai Palisade for you.
And towing that 2.9t caravan, with 290kg on the towball (10%), the Sahara ZX is left with 380kg of remaining payload based on 670kg starting weight.
How many people actually have triplets? And how many of them have 300 series money? I don't know about Australia, but in South Africa it's mostly middle aged couples with kids in their late teens to early twenties that are buying these. It was the same with the 200 series. Both are aimed at rich people, and rich people around here tend to be smart enough to stop at 2 kids. I highly doubt that Toyota was trying to design the 300 series for people with their own creche.
Great review ! I'm just a little disappointed with the LC300 ,, I guess I expected more after 14 years ,, it's as though Toyota did as little as possible to charge the most they could. The 10 speed gearbox sounds great ,, but will miss the V8
why miss the v8, do you not like more power and better efficiency.
@@qksmith ,, put the V6 in the Prado !! They've had 14 years to develop a new eco fuel efficient V8 ,, I'm sure with their endless financial resources they could have managed it ,, if they wanted to !
@@AK-vk6wg yes and they decided to move to a v6.
@@qksmith ,, yes ,, obviously
@@AK-vk6wg people don’t seem to mind 5 cylinders either
Was expecting Crafty, to review this one. So what gives??
Ha! Sorry to let you down Ian. Consider this one the drumroll ahead of the great Crafty red carpet gala affair. Cheers, Mal Flynn
Being a Mechanic and over 40 years experience with many as a Factory Trained Toyota Technician I have always been Impressed with Toyota Products but they Often Skip on Quality compared to other Brands and I don't see the Value Myself..Anyway you pay a Massive Premium to Purchase a New Landcruiser and are always Guaranteed to get a Top Resale Price when you Sell it..I Personally Believe that the Nissan Patrol TI is Far Superior and $30k to $40k Cheaper and if you do some Correct Modifications the Nissan Patrol is the Best Investment Option all Road and Far more Capable..Having Said that Australians Love the Landcruiser and have done many Trouble Free KMS..The USA Doesn't even want them unless you Purchase a LEXUS L600 ..Toyota had to Create LEXUS FOR THE US MARKET as they could not sell their Toyota Vehicles...LEXUS = (Limited Export US )...Ad for Me I Drive a BMW X5 F15 35I Twin Turbo 6 Cylinder Petrol Engine with around 10 litres per 100kms Consistently..Pure Luxury and Power with High Performance Handling and latest Technology and Similar to Maintain..Every One to their Own Choice although if you are Planning a Big Trip and want Pure Luxury and Comfort go for the BMW X5 or X7, If you want a Tough Capable Off Road Vehicle then choose the Toyota or Nissan Patrol TI and also for Top Quality and Performance the ISUZU MUX LST is a must for Consideration especially for Price and Value....
LC300 nails it. I wonder what Lexus will have to do to better it with the LX600?
Lexus nailed the Exterior, it looked Fantastic. The interior did not looked to Distinct from the LC300, that’s the shortcoming.
Lc 300 is a very capable rig straight off the box, however it hasn't proven itself yet like other popular LCs. Only time will tell.
You would you put the to turbos on top of the engine? It's not going to suit Australian conditions. Sounds very dumb to me.
These vehicles will be loaded up with gear (not to mention accessories) & a van on the back (since it can tow 3.5 tonne) and driven all around the country. But with around 700kg payload that combination will be illegal. Why are the payloads so tiny?
Hi Bert, It strikes me the payload ratings are carefully balanced with expectations around ride comfort and suspension travel articulation. Stiffer springs etc would resist load better, but everything else would have to compromise. Cheers, Mal Flynn
@@carsguide That is presumably right. However, there is no clear warning that you can’t carry people and luggage and accessories and tow. As a result there are people who buy in good faith but are unknowingly driving illegally and potentially compromising their insurance. They could also be unsafe.
I suggest manufacturers, dealers & reviewers need to at least emphasise the limitations.
I’m looking for good reliable engine for hot climate country. I think this is the car over European make. I like the look of this new 300 series specially the GR model.
I want to afford this one day
I'm getting one. In 20 years, maybe sooner if it's been through a lot 😂
AU wagon. It’s all the car you need :)
@@chrisfi3d Mate it's the ugliest thing I've ever seen. I'll stick to my 4runner 😂
How does it compare to the Defender 110?
I do not think you can compare the 2 LC300 is a large car in a different segment. D110 compare with Jeep Wrangler and J250 Prado
Love it minus the third row seats.
200 series much better in that category
I'm going to miss the split tailgate. The rest looks good, though.
Ill stick to my 40 series Landcruiser. thanks.
Insane price point for a bloody car
No third row for Sahara ZX?
09:50 One piece tailgate
$130k plus for a Landcruiser, $95k for a Patrol that has more features. I know which I prefer. $35k buys a lot of accessories and a lot of fuel. Too expensive Mr Toyoda.
The worst part is people will still buy it. Toyota Cult.
Then nothings changed.patrol is still a poor mans landcruiser
@@NoOne-qr8yf poor man’s? It’s not less expensive lol.
You might wanna calm down on the typing and do some reading
@@NoOne-qr8yf cheaper and better
@13:09 what the hell are you talking about l?! This engine is literally taken from the Lexus LS500 which came out in 2018 and people been complaining about it ever sense. The LS lost customers because of the turbocharger lag. So not only this engine was NOT developed for the LC300, it also has a lot of complaints.
oh to get 21 mpg from a land cruiser...back to my 12.5...
Does Australia not get the TT petrol V6?
No, only diesel models
We’ll get the petrol V6 in the Lexus LX, along with the diesel.
Bloody wish.
how large is the market for $140k suvs in australia
Insane.
@@ScottMurrayBestFamilyCars who is buying them?
@@stendecstretcher5678 Everyone.
Grey nomads
@@stendecstretcher5678 People that actually use them and also townies who never use them for what they were intended (sometimes I feel like is number is higher).
I think Toyota saying they can't get the car and not sure when is a great sales strategy as it's working great in creating hype. Unfortunately I'm not buying it and I believe a lot more buyers are not either. It may be a good car but the money they are asking for it makes it terrible value.
While people complaining the price of a hilux. Check these out boys.
No replacement for displacement
Starting at $90000, it feels stingy to have a smaller screen and wired Airplay, that stuff doesn't cost much to implement but they just seem to cut that stuff to justify the more expensive versions. Comparing the value to the Nissan Patrol, the Landcruiser is definitely more expensive to buy but costs less to run. The Patrol doesn't seem so stingy on the extras and even the cheapest one gets more than the cruiser. The problem will be actually getting one delivered.
yeah duuude
'Try finding something that does everything so well at any price' - you're kidding me! The Patrol (and a few other cars) does it that little better for a whole lot less.
Sorry, that was nasty - I apologise. And you're probably right about the resale value. I've had my 62 for 2 years now and it has been brilliant. I saved $20k over the LC when I purchased it so I can afford to take a hit in 10 years. Besides, I bought my TD42ti Y61 in 2006 for $65k and sold it in 2020 for $40k - I'd hardly say that's 'worthless'!
No negative points?
Hi Chris,
Quite a few actually. Missing safety gear in base GX, certain features not available unless you spend big, split range re 5/7st won't suit everyone. Lots of extra detail on all the above in my written review on site. Cheers, Mal Flynn
www.carsguide.com.au/car-reviews/toyota-landcruiser-lc300-84848
nissan really have some work to do
When spending over 100k on a 4wd the last thing you think of is fuel economy....your after maximum performance under load😎
When can I actually buy one? 😂😂😂🙄
Exterior looks much better than the Lexus version. The lx looks over style
The Back of the LC300 looks Ugly. I liked the Interior of the LC300.
I wish Toyota had made the fuel tank larger than the 200. The range of these vehicles is annoying.
10:00 - Thumbs down because you don’t know why a split tailgate is so nice. You still get the shelter, PLUS you get a seat. You fail.
more efficient more power more reliable than the V8 but "where's my v8"
How do you know the V6 is more reliable?
@@hastensavoir7782 well i dont for sure but that is one of the reason they moved to v6 from v8, less moving parts, larger components for the engine volume etc. engineers tend to learn and improve over time, no reason it shouldn't be more reliable, unlikely to be less so just because its got a 6 not an 8.
@@qksmith there’s no reliability issue with the V8 @ all. They moved to V6 for Efficiency.
@@qksmith you think a twin turbo V6 will last longer than a NA V8??? Also I bet the 10 speed auto will fail sooner too. This truck will need massive money for repairs within 10 years or sooner imo. We'll see..

@@ericjohnson6802 cool stuff aint cheap .cheap stuff aint cool
Landies feature in the top ten most unreliable vehicles for the last 30-40 years. Nothing has changed other than the variety of bits that break.
They seem to compete with Jeep and Alfa for most unreliable. Fact. Check JD Power and/or Warranty Insurers reports. International and by continent.
@@notimpressed3922 so what..they are innovators . Note new Range Rover innovation eg 4w steering etc. and note LR don't make many of the parts..so blame Ford or Bosch or whoever.

Great review!
I must say you look very snug in the driver's seat.... i swear they they made the interior much smaller than the 200... didn't mention the most important thing for towing capacity....GCM???

@@noiseyboy2h4jj1 Maybe its to give the LC300 a better official fuel figures. But I too am baffled why Toyota went a size smaller compared to previous LC models.
@@fatmanoverlanding Yeah, blame fuel efficiency. Doesn't seem to be an issue though. Cheers, Mal Flynn
Lol, that is the same size as my stock 120 prado

All I can see is lots of warranty work coming twin turbo in the Australian outback good luck.
Big sisters
Too many electronics. No tailgate. Back seats lack space. The INOS Grenadier may find some new buyers at the 80k mark.
Parking alert . cross traffic alert . alloys . dinky info screens , twin turbos .
Just what the Pitt Street farmers need
Hm a lot of questionable decisions toyota
V8 is great but to say this V6 is not great, makes the Old V8 OVERRATED.
When a old 200 is more then a new 300 then that says more then anything on if they are any good....!
Fuel economy is sounding hideous... how can they have a V6 now with a 10 speed transmission and 130 kilos less weight and its doing well over 11 lp100k on the freeway (if thats what the puter says it's probably 12+) ... wtf!
Watching some vids the transmission is a joke like the previous one... touch the throttle and it just slips and free revs for no reason with no utilization of the diesels torque. Toyota still stuck in the 80's?
Electric park brake drops it down a notch; if electrics get fried or engine dies ìt might get stuck on, making it difficult to tow or recover
I haven’t seen this vehicle in the metal yet, but just about every electrically actuated brake system I have encountered has a manual override. If they don’t then you break out your inner MacGyver and find a way.
@@rsoul7282 they dont, drove a Merc GL through a large puddle (below door height, but turns out battery hangs under the vehicle...); had to be dragged with wheels locked (insurance wrote it off)
Other makes have had them for years and yes like a cable jobbie they do require maintenance and can get gumned up but there's alway a manual release built in.
i like the fortuner back better
Why are these reviews not objective? It's really an advertisment of features not a critical review at all. The split tail gate never leaked dust. It's better for towing boats. The single hatch make it questionable whether you can open the back as winch clearance is going to be tight!. There's no discussion about actual 3.5 ton towing ability. There no discussion about the 10 speed transmission and actual engine braking and manual shift. How do you fit a rear view caravan towing camera screen on that dash. Relying on mirrors for a heavy big van is so yesterday. And lastly is the heat issue.
Dead right - this was an ad not a review!
They are not objective because they have a relationship with the car makers that they don't want to jeopardise.
What heat issue?
@@NoOne-qr8yf See John Cadogen report. John was concerned about the potential under bonnet heat because of the design of the Turbos that would potentially trap allot of heat into the centre of the V6. So when the engine is working hard and its hot and slow e.g. towing a load in sand and its 45 degrees which isn't unusual in inland Australia whether the temperatures could become a problem. It's too early to tell. This summer might provide further information however. The V6 like the previous V8 are thermal heat transfer systems. The V6 is generating significantly more NM.
We shall see. Cheers
@@rosewood1 what makes you think that one of the best(if not the best)car makers on the planet have not already tested this .wtf listens to that opinionated wanker anyway.but i agree with you when you say we will see (i wonder why toyota didnt involve the youtube experts in the testing)🥴
It's looks like Chinese Haval h9. Should have done little more work on grill
Another car for the Dubai market.
Why do we always get lumbered with these soft luxury land-yachts? I suppose they are a safe bet for suburban buyers which is where the money is. I just wish car makers would be a bit more innovating and interesting with their new cars rather than always playing it safe.
Try that arguent in a bush pub with both 70 series and 200s parked outside and see how you get on. Good luck.
I have a better vehicle but most people think it is a city AND. How little they no.
90k+ for a vehicle with no front or rear parking sensors and "most" of the safety gear! Unless your towing a giant boat/trailer/camper these vehicle's make no sense in town. Mind you, I say the same about ute's. If I wanted to feel like I was in a boat going around roundabout's then this would be the ideal vehicle.
Not everyone lives in a town, stop projecting.
My 2006 BMW had front and rear parking sensors 😂! It had a capital engine failure around Easter, my shop sold it to Lithuania for 600€.
Just can’t justify this type of money for a bloody under equiped ol land cruiser
You were never in the market for one anyway.
@@oggyoggy1299 lmao
No V8 no sale.

@@qksmith it's not all about power. Driving a V8 is a unique experience that smaller engines can't offer. Especially the sounds.

They cost so much, beautiful cars but too expensive. I bought a new Isuzu MU-X. It has the safety provisions and comfort, excellent power and towing ability and yes, wireless Apple CarPlay that cost so much in the Toyota and costs much less than the Land Cruiser. I drove Land Cruiser in PNG for many years decades ago. They were great. Would I like a Land Cruiser, yes, would I pay so much to own one, NO! And the Toyota needs services every six months??? A great vehicle, but it demands costly maintenance far too often.
Yes, you should go with what you can afford.
And also go with something that delivers all the features, safety, comfort, drivability and towing ability needed for a better price. It’s not the affordability, it’s the value for money.
@@gregturner_awod I don't care about the price. I would rather pay premium for a solid product with a strong track record than get a 'discount' and pay less/settle for a Hyundai.
The MU-X is an Isuzu.
@@gregturner_awod My bad, i was reading someone elses Hyundai comment and replied to u. I hold the same view though. I wouldn't settle for less than the mighty Landcruiser.

Within 2 minutes the reviewer was defending major price increases to the Toyota 300 vehicles with BS motherhood statements Didn't bother watching any more as obviously another Toyota funded add. Just appauling.
There is no justifcation for paying that much. But I don't blame Toyota, if there is an idiot around every corner to willingly give you their money, why would'nt you take it!
