The Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series will enter 2024 unchanged.

Earlier this year, Toyota Australia increased pricing across its entire LandCruiser 300 Series range by $1620.

The base model GX now starts from $94,301 before on-road costs, with the flagship Sahara ZX priced at $143,101 before on-road costs.

“The increases are due to increased costs and inflationary pressures outside of our control such as more expensive raw materials, labour, tooling and packaging which are feeding into higher manufacturing costs,” a Toyota Australia spokesperson said.

There have been no corresponding specification changes to the LandCruiser 300 Series since pricing was increased, and Toyota hasn’t flagged any for 2024.
