I love it, but wish there were options for the front facade and options for more off-road friendly body cladding, or at the very least a factory black-out option for the grill. As for luxury, having a massage front seat option would have been nice.

If i had the money, I would be getting this rather than a Land Cruiser. With the demand of cars exceeding supply, especially with toyota cars in general, this would be a more favourable alternative. (not this configurations, the 5 seater I mean)

Its hard to find a large SUV to fit a family of 6 with great off road capabilities

One thing I'll never understand with newer cars from the last 5 years is the use of nice LED lights all around, then putting in some ridiculously little dots or bars for a brake light and separating the indicators and/or reverse lights to the bottom. Looks really stupid. Some even have the brake lights down low too.

As capable as this landcruiser with lipstick is off road, the price is crazy, $230k aud. If I wanted to do serious offroading, but also have a really nice interior with all the bits and bobs I would have two cars. Nissan patrol / mitsubishi pajero / izuzu mux to drive into the trees, rocks and the sand etc, I would allow $50k budget for a near new one, still under warranty, low kays, insist on no previous 4wd work. With the change I would get BMW X7 / Audi Q7 (~$180k), which are several levels up the chain in terms of luxury when compared to LX600. The LX is about $100k overpriced in my view.
@Rally4Life19822 жыл бұрын
Beautiful interior on a heavy, inefficient platform. Building a luxury car on an off-road platform is a recipe for stomach lurching around every round-about combined with crap fuel economy. However if you were a poser townie then it would be a zillion times better then any Land Rover.

The interior is super classy, but the infotainment system seems like it's just stuck on. Could have been better integrated. The almost useless cramped third row is gone, luckily. The rear quarter window shape, makes the side look a lot more balanced. Don't think it will ever see any dirt road. But the price, that is a very big problem, It is totally out of my reach.
