2022 Toyota Land Cruiser Sahara ZX review: Top-spec LC300 family tested - 300 Series Sahara!

01:41 Interior
04:35 Practicality
07:35 Ownership
The new-generation Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series is bolder and more premium than any Cruiser that has come before it. The top-spec LC300 Sahara ZX also pushes the boundaries when it comes to pricing, especially considering it's only available as a five seater SUV.
It seems weird that the cheaper 4WDs in the 300 Series range offer seven seater SUV practicality, but that's just the start of the story. There is plenty of on-board tech and off-road hardware built into the new 2022 Toyota LC300 range, and as a family car it really argues a strong case against potential less-adventurous rivals like the BMW X7, Mercedes GLS and Audi Q7.
But what's it like to live with for mums and dads? Nedahl Stelio spent a week with the 2022 Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series (LC300) Sahara ZX to find out.
If you want more off-road focused coverage, watch Mal Flynn's launch review, and we've got even more coming on the Toyota LC300 range soon.

LAND CRUISER It is incredibly popular in Japan, and Japanese dealers have to wait up to 4 years to get it from the payment reservation. From Japan
The smile throughout the whole review saids it all. Than again we expected to be good. Like most the only issue is price. Otherwise what else do you want in one car for this country? Great review as usual 👍🏼

Nice
Got the same last month
What a tease for us in the US.
The packaging on the 300 is so wired. Why don’t the GR and Sahara zx have 3rd row seating. Also why can’t you option locking differentials and sway bar connectors .
Look so tiny in this huge car :) The interior is top notch - the exterior though is... well odd is the best I can say. Definitely prefer the previous gen!

Ask Your Kids Where They Think Electricity Comes From!!
If you guys still thinking that this car isnt very luxurious on its price range, then take the new lx600 luxury trim, they're very much the same
Rather have this than the lx600
It doesn't seem like this lady knows how reliable and safe these cars are - nothing else comes close.
Love my V8 200 😀
A new Toyota and it’s not butt ugly. Now that Is news.
Typical scenario for this vehicle
"Lux" isnt a word!

Malabar great area
Only issue is, its not an 8 Cylinder.
Good review it’s a mall cruiser only.
Hate six month servicing schedule
Love the female review, more please :)
Luxury car tax around $25k in Australian dollars .@ 150k on road . I’ll be looking for an ex demo
With those rims its just a poser model in this trim. Good for towing but no real offroading. There was no mention of the driving dynamics. Pretty good fuel consumption though for such a large tank.
These days the cruiser comes with a handbag warmer and lipstick holders..heaven forbid if it ever sees a gravel road..so LUX Darlings. Jesus's for 130g I'd buy 2 hiluxs not so lux but lux.
Most beautiful girl and on point. Wonderful presentation.
based on her review, its a waste to get landcruiser, just get some minivans or crossovers.

They ruined the rear end, 2019-2021 models look alot better!
Honestly for the price and availability and considering that these are going to be used as pavement princesses it’s hard to justify why not buy a prado or wait for the new prado coming out soon when you consider how long you’ll wait for the 300.
What the hell does lux mean??? And dear god the phrase alone that it makes you feel like the "queen of the road" just explains so much these days...

That's not the purpose of this as much as it is in a BMW X7 or Mercedes GLS. The landcruiser is built for reliability and Toyota only uses components they know will last in all conditions, and also stand the test of time. You're paying 140k for reliability more than you are for tech.

@@deshanmk6 If that's not the purpose of this car then they should reflect that in their price. I've been told after dealer chargers and on road costs you're looking at 160k+. I agree they are reliable but you're paying that much and you're getting a dash similar to a 2005 VW Golf

Usually i take landcruiser. But now. I prefer lexus lx600. Because this lc 300 look so feminim and ugly. Before gen is better than this gen
Sorry Toyota, you messed up on this one.
This is a very strange review, if I didn’t know better I’d think it was sponsored by Toyota. Most of what the charming lady said was well let’s just say embellished. Large 3.3 liter engine???, how about much more highly tuned smaller capacity engine with limited head room for improvement, as to its so called size ? It’s almost the same dimensions as the last 200 series which has been running around for well over a decade, the front seating area feels almost claustrophobic compared to the previous 200, come on really this was a waste of my time watching this, I’m sure she’s could do much better.

When you go to sleep, do you also check under your bed for so called Toyota sponsors? Is it really such a stretch of your imagination that a upper end example of a well liked vehicle could in any way be satisfying for a family to drive? Surely there are some sort of shenanigans afoot though.

@@ziadmutasim1235 The new drivetrain certainly is excellent and the interior improved, but: - the interior space is really compromised, as the engine bay is longer than before for a similar overall length. - the 3rd row is ridiculous, and probably vomit-inducing for children due to the tall 2nd-row seats. - some basic equipments are unexplainably missing, like memory seats. - No split tailgate. - The car is ugly. Subjective, but it looks like it was stretched to the corners of a shoebox.
“Lux” as she describes a dash with analog dash, once again, this reviewer shows how inconsistent she really is.
So overpriced X7 is much better equipped. You may claim LC is better off loader but most of Them will be used for school runs anyway
Total over the top as family car for school trips. Stupid small wheels and tires.

Get the 295/55/20 or the 305/55/20s . The car had smaller tires for mileage and handling tests .
I will never deny the toughness of a land cruiser.. But I don’t think this is up there with the x7 or Benz or Range Rover in case of luxury/ performance/ looks. The interior feels like it could be from 2010. I don’t mind analog dials, but the one on this car looks cheap, especially for its price This car is overpriced.

@@brissiAU I don’t disagree But Big $$ difference between a vehicle with no options, v someone adding on many options. And All the on road costs will vary, because dealers can ask whatever they want for DD. And CTP / Rego & Stamp Duty costs vary in every state, so, as a general rule, publications etc, quote the RRP, before options & on road costs.

Jesus these cars are ugly af. As for the interior looking premium, I have to disagree. Compared to comparable Merc or BMW they are plain Jane. Then again that’s Toyota for ya. In saying that I’ve ordered a New RAV, purely for reliability and hybrid. Make no mistake they are way off the mark in tech compared to say the new Kia Sportage.
