- Toyota Australia still yet to confirm a release date
- Prediction lines up with Toyota Australia saying LC300s would land in the fourth quarter
A Toyota dealer in Sydney has hinted that we may be seeing the highly anticipated 300 series LandCruiser landing in dealers as early as October this year.
Windsor Toyota made the post yesterday on its Instagram page stating: “The LandCruiser 300 arrival has been announced and stock is on it's [sic] way. Get ready for October, this is the arrival you won't want to miss out on!”
Up until now, Toyota Australia has only confirmed the new 300 series will be in Australia by quarter four of this year.
The biggest headline from the new 300 series is that the twin-turbo 1VD-FTE V8 diesel from the outgoing 200 series will be replaced by the more powerful F33A-FTV 3.3-litre twin-turbo V6 diesel engine, which develops 227kW and 700Nm.
Toyota Australia confirmed at the start of this month the 300 series will be offered in six different trim levels, with pricing starting at $89,990 for the GX, moving through to the range-topping Sahara ZX on offer from $138,790 and the hotly anticipated GR Sport version costing upwards of $137,790.
You can read about the full range breakdown here, and we’ve already had a steer of a pre-production 300 series prototype before the official reveal last month which you can watch here.
