Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series dual-cab ute imagined

If a 79 Series isn’t comfy enough for the family, maybe a 300 Series ute would do the trick

The 2022 Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series has arguably been the biggest story of 2021 so far, but if there’s one vehicle Australians love more than a LandCruiser, it’s a dual-cab ute.

Brazilian artist Kleber Silva created this rendering, which stitches together the front of a 300 Series onto the body of a full-size pick-up, creating a dual-cab LandCruiser ute with a bit more comfort and tech than Toyota's iconic 79 Series.

While Silva named his creation the 2024 Toyota HiLux TRD, the possibility of a 300 Series dual-cab is not completely out of question.

UPDATE, October 14 2021: The LC300 has now made its proper Australian debut, and you can read and watch our full first-drive review here.

In recent days, the 2022 Toyota Tundra was revealed in the US, with the pick-up sharing the same powertrain and under-body architecture as the new LandCruiser.

“Toyota Australia is aware that the large truck segment in Australia has grown in popularity over the last few years and it is a segment we are continuing to study and we are interested in generally,” a spokesperson for the carmaker told 4X4 Australia in May 2021.

While a Tundra built in right-hand-drive for markets like Australia is more likely to see the light of day, Toyota could eventually choose to leverage the LandCruiser’s good name and offer a pick-up body for the 300 Series globally.
