Yes! That split folding tailgate was one of the best features of the LC without question. For this reason alone I’d take the 200 over 300. What were they thinking?! 🤦🏼♂️ probably couldn’t figure out how to make it automatic so removed something awesome over a marketing trend.

After deciding to upgrade my trusty ageing Touareg that has served my family faithfully over 12 years, I began researching and test-driving suitable replacements since the start of the year. After a few months of anticipation, I was finally able to take the 300 VX for a test drive a few weeks ago. I was impressed with the power, drive quality and, surprisingly, the appealing sound of the V6 engine. It certainly seemed to drive much better than the outgoing 200 series Sahara that I test drove a few weeks earlier. I was seriously tempted to lay my $2,500 deposit down there and then to secure my car for delivery some unknown time in the future… but there were some niggles that got me to reconsider. The niggles included: 1. The rather cluttered, busy array of buttons and ‘stuff’ on the dashboard 2. The cramped third row seats that are cumbersome to operate 3. The synthetic rather than real leather, despite the salesman trying to convince me it was real leather (I accept synthetic is better for the environment but hey, you can’t beat the smell and feel of real leather!) 4. The absence of the split tailgate, which I thought was a nice touch in the 200 series 5. No electric tailgate 6. No memory seating Individually these niggles aren’t that bad but when you add them up, along with the fact you can’t customise to add 1-2 bits, it proved for me to be a deal-breaker. I thought that shelling out $125k (inc ORC) for a car would’ve included at least an electric tailgate, but I was wrong. It was a shame that Toyota didn’t include some simple features such as electric tailgate or memory seating on the pricey VX model that seems to be standard for most other (and much cheaper) vehicles. What’s worse is that you have to pay $18k more to get them in the next level Sahara, as they aren’t even offered as an option. The day after I took the VX for a test drive, I took a slightly used Range Rover Vogue for a run, and boy what a difference a day makes! I’m now a proud new owner of a totally different class of vehicle that has all the features I was looking for and more… but that’s another story.

Our range toppers here in South Africa are the ZX and GR-S, available with the 3.3 V6 and 3.5 V6. Those are the only ones I would consider buying, but their prices are between R1 760 000ZAR and R1 850 000ZAR, which is between $160 000AUD and $170 000AUD, with the 3.5 V6 models being the more expensive ones. I would love a GR-S with the 3.5 V6, but I can't see myself ever paying that kind of money for one. I'm currently in the process of buying a Hilux Legend, it's very similar to the Hilux Rogue in Australia, and that's almost half the price of the cheapest 300 series we have available here, which is the GX-R for around R 1 285 000ZAR or around $118 000AUD. Just wish Toyota could hurry up and get some stock since I've been waiting just over 6 months for my Hilux, but apparently things are looking good for the end of this month.

Hi Paul, Another great review. I like what Toyota have done but agree that the VX should have a few more standard features thrown in, diff lock and definitely a power tail gate. I noticed that there was a considerable fluctuation on the oil gauge from idle to increasing revs. Seemed a bit odd, anyone else notice that? From the rear, it reminds me of the current Patrol. Be interesting to see how this new engine performs when run in and it's reliability. Cheers.

There are things like the entertainment unit that look like it is pasted on, not integrated. For such a huge vehicle that the third row is disappointing. Mechanically it sounds good, time will tell, but no diff lock at that price, unforgivable. The one thing missing that is one of the most useful things is the split tailgate. It is extremely handy. But most new vehicles omit it lately. Don't they listen to their consumers? Then there is no way that a brick-like shape will do 9 L p/100 km, maybe if it's downhill. But people who buy this, don't care much about fuel consumption. It's big, it's heavy and not streamlined.

@@CarExpertAus Keen for your thoughts on the silverado! The 300 series is a huge update compared to the 200, but the pricing is just out of hand. Covid tax on steroids. VX definitely the sweet spot I think.

@@bn8535 LOL 700 pissant NM vs 1100+. Enjoy your measly payload as well, 200 series was 610kg. Add 350 on the ball, a bull bar, winch and two occupants and you're already overweight.

That is an ignorant comment. The Ram or Silverado are bigger utes and that's not what these vehicles are aimed at. Also no thanks for an American product vs the heritage of the Landcruiser. Also the re-sale value of these vehicles is the best of anything full stop. Do your research before spitting out a one dimensional American Tank vs a Family Touring Vehicle. They are world's apart. Exactly the reason one of Melbourne's biggest boat dealers has sold his Ram's and invested in the Landcruiser. Horses for courses and you aren't even comparing Apples with Apples.!

If I was in the position to buy one, I would choose one over other big SUVs out there but the only problem is that it isn't offered in my country! We only get the diet version which is such a shame.

Just one more thing most mechanics say 12 monthly servicing is garbage six monthly is the gold standard. I trust the Toyota engineers and mechanics over you on this one Paul. My 98 Corolla has been serviced every six months from new never missed a beat so there’s that.

Imo the new design looks hideous. Why on earth would they ruin the design on their flagship suv. The last generation looked so much better with a good road presence. Land cruiser not having a split tailgate is just criminal

No towing test? Love to see figures when fully loaded. Then when fully kitted out with bar work, lift, tyres, drawers, fridges etc as these are the grey nomad tourer it would be interesting to see if it can choose as well as the 200!

For what people are paying for the 200 series now, they would be crazy not to go for this upgraded 300 model. But for this price, not to even have an option of diff locks is just plain stupid, it also should have suspension air lift, or at least an option. This off road track test was very very mild, if it was only slightly harder this would struggle big time. Would love one, but for this price no thank you, would need to spend another fortune on it to make it a good off roader, but that will not stop a lot of people.
